Multiplicative functions over the Gaussian integers. II (Q1091415)

The authors continue their study of multiplicative functions on the group \(G^*\) of integers of \(\mathbb Q(i)\setminus \{0\}\) [ibid. 48, 187--190 (1986; Zbl 0615.10010)]. In particular, conditions are given under which such a function \(F\) is of the form \(F(\alpha)=| \alpha |^s e^{ik \arg \alpha}\) \((s\in\mathbb C\), \(k\in\mathbb Z\), \(0\leq \text{Re}\, s<1)\). (Remark. In Lemma 1 read \(\mathfrak B=G^*\) instead of \(\beta =G^*\).)
