ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOR OF THE IRRATIONAL FACTOR

2008    Alkan, E.; Ledoan, A. H.; Zaharescu, A.

We study the irrational factor function I(n) introduced by Atanassov and defined by I(n) = Pi(k)(k=1)p(v)(1/alpha v), where n = Pi(k)(v=1) p(v)(alpha v) is the prime factorization of n. We show that the sequence {G(n)/n}(n >= 1), where G(n) = Pi(n)(v=1) I(v)(1/n), is covergent; this answers a question of Panaitopol. We also establish asymptotic formulas for averages of the function I(n).
