Chebyshev functions

The Chebyshev’s $\psi$-function and Chebshev’s $\theta$-function are defined as\[\psi(x) = \sum_{p^k \leq x} \log p, \qquad \theta(x) = \sum_{p \leq x} \log p.\] We can rewrite $\psi(x)$ in terms of von Mangoldt function as\[\psi(x) = \sum_{n \leq x} \Lambda(n).\] The … Continue reading

Dirichlet product and multiplicative functions

The Dirichlet product (or Dirichlet convolution) of two arithmetic functions $f$ and $g$ is defined as\[(f * g)(n) = \sum_{d | n} f(d)g(n/d).\] The Dirichlet product arises when multiplying two Dirichlet series, that is, if two Dirichlet series\[\sum_{n = 1}^{\infty} … Continue reading
