Summatory Multiplicative Arithmetic Functions: Scaling and Renormalization
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We consider a wide class of summatory functions F{f;N,p^m}=sum_{kleq N}f(p^m k), min mathbb Z_+cup {0}, associated with the multiplicative arithmetic functions f of a scaled variable kin mathbb Z_+, where p is a prime number. Assuming an asymptotic behavior of summatory function, F{f;N,1}stackrel{N o infty}{=}G_1(N) [1+ {cal O}(G_2(N))], where G_1(N)=N^{a_1}(log N)^{b_1}, G_2(N)=N^{-a_2}(log N)^{-b_2} and a_1, a_2geq 0, -infty < b_1, b_2< infty, we calculate a renormalization function defined as a ratio, R(f;N,p^m)=F{f;N,p^m}/F{f;N,1}, and find its asymptotics R_{infty}(f;p^m) when N o infty. We prove that the renormalization function is multiplicative, i.e., R_{infty}(f;prod_{i=1}^n p_i^{m_i})= prod_{i=1}^n R_{infty}(f;p_i^{m_i}) with n distinct primes p_i. We extend these results on the others summatory functions sum_{kleq N}f(p^m k^l), m,l,kin mathbb Z}_+ and sum_{kleq N}prod_{i=1}^n f_i(k p^{m_i}), f_i

eq m_j. We apply the derived formulas to a large number of basic summatory functions including the Euler phi(k) and Dedekind psi(k) totient functions, divisor sigma_n(k) and prime divisor �eta(k) functions, the Ramanujan sum C_q(n) and Ramanujan au(k) Dirichlet series, and others.
