While considering the summatory function of the Liouville Function, we found that
which takes the value of 1 when n is a perfect square and 0 otherwise. The following question was given as a challenge and we present its solution in this article.
Question
Find
Solution:-
From
∑d|nλ(d)=1PerfectSquare(n)
using the Möbius Inversion formula, we have
∑d|nμ(nd)1PerfectSquare(d)=λ(n)
The summands will be zero except when d=D2. Hence we get
∑D2|nμ(nD2)=λ(n)
[End]
