arithmetic function


An arithmetic functionMathworldPlanetmath is a functionMathworldPlanetmath f:+ from the positive integers to the complex numbersPlanetmathPlanetmath.

Any algebraic functionMathworldPlanetmath over +, as well as transcendental functions such as sin(nπ) and enπi with n+ are arithmetic functions.

There are two noteworthy operations on the set of arithmetic functions:

If f and g are two arithmetic functions, the sum of f and g, denoted f+g, is given by

(f+g)(n)=f(n)+g(n),

and the Dirichlet convolution of f and g, denoted by f*g, is given by

(f*g)(n)=d|nf(d)g(nd).

The set of arithmetic functions, equipped with these two binary operations, forms a commutative ring with unity. The 0 of the ring is the function f such that f(n)=0 for any positive integer n. The 1 of the ring is the function f with f(1)=1 and f(n)=0 for any n>1, and the units of the ring are those arithmetic function f such that f(1)0.

Note that giving a sequence {an} of complex numbers is equivalent to giving an arithmetic function by associating an with f(n).
