Liouville FunctionThe function
 | (1) |
where is the number of not necessarily distinct Prime Factors of , with . The first few values of are 1, , , 1, , 1, , , 1, 1, , , .... The Liouville function is connected with theRiemann Zeta Function by the equation

(Lehman 1960).
The Conjecture that the Summatory Function
 | (3) |
satisfies for is called the Pólya Conjecture and has been proved to befalse. The first for which are for , 4, 6, 10, 16, 26, 40, 96, 586, 906150256, ... (Sloane's A028488),and is, in fact, the first counterexample to the Pólya Conjecture (Tanaka1980). However, it is unknown if changes sign infinitely often (Tanaka 1980). The first few values of are 1,0, , 0, , 0, , , , 0, , , , , , 0, , , , , ... (Sloane's A002819). also satisfies
