Abstract: We give an asymptotic formula for correlations [ sum_{nle x}f_1(P_1(n))f_2(P_2(n))cdot dots cdot f_m(P_m(n))] where $fdots,f_m$ are bounded "pretentious" multiplicative functions, under certain natural hypotheses. We then deduce several desirable consequences: First, we characterize all multiplicative functions $f:mathbbNo-1,+1$ with bounded partial sums. This answers a question of ErdH{o}s from $1957$ in the form conjectured by Tao. Second, we show that if the average of the first divided difference of multiplicative function is zero, then either $f(n)=n^s$ for $operatornameRe(s)<1$ or $|f(n)|$ is small on average. This settles an old conjecture of K'atai. Third, we apply our theorem to count the number of representations of $n=a+b$ where $a,b$ belong to some multiplicative subsets of $mathbbN.$ This gives a new "circle method-free" proof of the result of Br"udern.
