HELP! http://prntscr.com/4fxv0h

OpenStudy (anonymous):

here u can use sum notation:P

OpenStudy (rational):

no clue yet say, \(\gcd(a,b) = 1\) and \(f(n) = 2^{\omega(n)}\) guess i need to show : \[\large 2^{\omega (ab)} = 2^{\omega (a)} . 2^{\omega (b)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm one problemo w(a) is not multiplicative right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how ever , w(n)= \(\sum_{p|n} p_i\)

OpenStudy (rational):

\(\large \omega(6) = 2\) \(\large \omega(5) = 1\) \(\large \omega(6.5) = 3 \color{Red}{\ne} 2 = \omega(6) . \omega(5) \)

OpenStudy (rational):

so \(\large \omega \) is not multiplicative

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know its not :o i already said that :P but sum notation omefrom def of w so , \(\Huge 2^{\sum_{p|n} p_i} =\prod_{p|n} 2^{p_i}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats it :)

OpenStudy (math&ing001):

w shouldn't be multiplicative, it should be additive so you can use the power properties to prove 2^w(n) is multiplicative. \[2^{w(m*n)}=2^{w(m)+w(n)}=2^{w(m)}.2^{w(n)}\]

OpenStudy (rational):

nice :) i think that should work perfectly! what do u think @BSwan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah yeah thats what i did xD

OpenStudy (rational):

you did it like a prof so i couldn't understand sooner :P

OpenStudy (rational):

\[\large \omega(n) = \sum_{p|n} 1\] right ?

OpenStudy (rational):

we need to count number of primes, not add the primes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah :O hehe made a typo

OpenStudy (rational):

\[\huge 2^{\sum \limits_{p|(ab)} 1} =2^{\sum \limits_{p|a} 1} . 2^{\sum \limits_{p|b} 1} \]

OpenStudy (rational):

not sure how to represent this using PI function

OpenStudy (rational):

does that mean below is true for any base t ? \(\large t^{\omega(n)}\) is always multiplicative for all natural numbers \(t\) ?

OpenStudy (rational):

nothing special about \(2\) right ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm i think so , since all exp functions are multiplicative hmmm

OpenStudy (rational):

that makes sense next part

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the special thing about 2 is that it gives the formula in second part :P so i iguess we'll gonna use it w(d) is number of primes fators of d right ?

OpenStudy (rational):

Ohk.. yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmm

OpenStudy (rational):

Since \(\large 2^{\omega(d)}\) is multiplicative, \(\large \sum \limits_{d|n} 2^{\omega(d)}\) is also multiplicative from `Theorem 6.4`; \(\large \tau \) is multiplicative too. So it suffices to prove it for a prime power : \(\large n = p^{k}\) : \[\large \begin{align}\\ \sum \limits_{d|p^k}2^{\omega(d)} &= 2^0 + 2^1 + 2^1 + \cdots \text{k times} \\ &= 1 + 2k \\~\\ &=\tau\left((p^{k})^2\right)\\~\\ \end{align}\]

OpenStudy (rational):

3 more questions to go before touching mobius inversion formula xD

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are the question ? ill read them from my book quick copy paste before i go

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@rational QUICCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

OpenStudy (rational):

one question at a time :) next question : http://prntscr.com/4g2a68

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no i want work online >.< my eyes hurts , just give me the three to check them from my book :O

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok i saw that before >.< what next ?

OpenStudy (rational):

#22 : http://prntscr.com/4g2pkf

OpenStudy (rational):

#23 : http://prntscr.com/4g2prz

OpenStudy (rational):

@BSwan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

got them , gn

OpenStudy (rational):

gn :) il try these in the morning

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you solve anyone of then @ganeshie8

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

wil try in the evening..

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

have u solved any ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

trying

OpenStudy (rational):

#21 : \[\large \begin{align}\\ \sum \limits_{d|p^{k}}\tau(d)^3 &= (0+1)^3 + (1+1)^3 + (2+1)^3 \cdots + (k+1)^3 \\ & = \left(\dfrac{(k+1)(k+2)}{2}\right)^2\\~\\ & = \left(1+2+3+\cdots +(k+1)\right)^2\\~\\ & = \left(\sum \limits_{d|p^{k}}\tau(d)\right)^2\\~\\ \end{align}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OH my i was stuck in the series >.< thats cool
