Abstract:
Recently Martin, Mossinghoff, and Trudgian investigated comparative number theoretic results for a family of arithmetic functions called “fake $\mu$’s”. In their paper, they focused on the bias and oscillation of the summatory function of a fake $\mu$ at the $\sqrt{x}$ scale, while acknowledging that a function with no bias at this scale could well see one at a smaller scale. In this spirit, I will discuss some new oscillation results for the summatory functions of general fake $\mu$’s. This is joint work with Greg Martin.
