Abstract:

In this talk we present new unconditional estimates on $\Delta k(x)$, the remainder term associated with the generalised divisor function, for large $k$. By combining new estimates of exponential sums and Carlson’s exponent, we show that $\Delta k(x) \ll x^{1−1.224(k−2.36)^{−2/3}}$ for $k \geq 58$ and $\Delta k(x) \ll x^{1−1.889k^{−2/3}}$ for all sufficiently large fixed $k$. This is joint work with Andrew Yang.
