Möbius function, an identity factory with applications

Sebastian Zuniga Alterman

By using an identity relating a sum to an integral, we obtain a family of identities for the averages \(M(X)=\sum_{n\leq X} \mu(n)\) and \(m(X)=\sum_{n\leq X} \mu(n)/n\). Further, by choosing some specific families, we study two summatory functions related to the Möbius function, \(\mu(n)\), namely \(\sum_{n\leq X} \mu(n)/n^s\) and \(\sum{n\leq X} \mu(n)/n^s \log(X/n)\), where \(s\) is a complex number and \(\Re s >0\). We also explore some applications and examples when s is real. (joint work with O. Ramaré)
