Review text

In 1989, Alladi, Erdős and Vaaler proved that if \(n\) a square-free integer and \(h\) a multiplicative function satisfying \(0\leq h(p)\leq 1/(k-1)\) on primes \(p\), where \(k\) is a natural number. Then \[ \sum_{d\mid n}{h(d)}\leq \sum_{d\mid n,d\leq n^{1/k}}h(d) \] where \(c_k\) denotes a constant depending only on \(k\). In the proof they used a deep result of Baranyi on hypergraphs. In this paper the author gives a simple direct proof of the result.
