In this paper, we explore other arithmetical functions enjoying this remarkable property. In Theorem 2.1 below, we are able to generalize the above result and prove that if f_iand g_i are completely multiplicative, then we have [formula could not be replicated] where L_f(s):= Σ∞/n=1 f(n)n_-s is the Dirichlet series corresponding to f. Let r_N(n) be the number of solutions of x²/1 +...+ x²/N = n and r₂,_P(n) be the number of solutions of x² + Py² = n. One of the applications of Theorem 2.1 is to obtain closed forms, in terms of ζ(s) and Dirichlet L-functions, for the generating functions of rN(n), r²/N(n),r2,P(n) and r2,P(n)² for certain N and P. We also use these generating functions to obtain asymptotic estimates of the average values for each function for which we obtain a Dirichlet series.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 08:15:38 AEDT ]]>
