A note on the Liouville function in short intervals

Authors Kaisa Matomäki, Maksym Radziwiłł

Publication date 9 February 2015

Abstract: In this note we give a short and self-contained proof that, for any

d e l t a > 0

,

s u m_{x l e q n l e q x + x^{d} e l t a} l a m b d a (n) = o (x^{d} e l t a)

for almost all

x i n [X, 2 X]

. We also sketch a proof of a generalization of such a result to general real-valued multiplicative functions. Both results are special cases of results in our more involved and lengthy recent pre-print.
