Ramanujan sum


For positive integers s and n, the complex numberMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath

cs(n)=0k<n(k,n)=1e2πiks/n

is referred to as a Ramanujan sumMathworldPlanetmath, or a Ramanujan trigonometric sum.Since e2πi=1, an equivalentMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath definition is

cs(n)=kr(n)e2πiks/n

where r(n) is some reduced residue systemMathworldPlanetmath mod n, meaning anysubset of containing exactly one element of eachinvertiblePlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath residue classMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath mod n.

Using a symmetryPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath argumentPlanetmathPlanetmath about roots of unityMathworldPlanetmath, one can show

d|scs(n)={sif s|n0otherwise.

Applying Möbius inversion, we get

cs(n)=d|nd|sμ(n/d)d=d|(n,s)μ(n/d)d

which shows that cs(n) is a real number, and indeed an integer.In particular cs(1)=μ(s). More generally,

cst(mn)=cs(m)ct(n) if (m,t)=(n,s)=1.

Using the Chinese remainder theoremMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath, it is not hard to show thatfor any fixed n, the function scs(n) is multiplicative:

cs(n)ct(n)=cst(n) if (s,t)=1.

If m is invertible mod n, then the mapping kkmis a permutation of the invertible residue classes mod n. Therefore

cs(mn)=cs(n) if (m,s)=1.

Remarks: Trigonometric sums often makeconvenient apparatus in number theoryMathworldPlanetmath, since anyfunction on a quotient ring of definesa periodic function on itself, and conversely. Foranother example, see Landsberg-Schaar relation.

Some writers use different notation from ours, reversing the rolesof s and n in the expression cs(n).

The name “Ramanujan sum” was introduced by Hardy.
