On the Product of the Square-free Divisor of a Natural Number Yanyan Han Department of Mathematics, Shandong Normal University Jinan, Shandong, P.R.China Abstract In this paper we study the product of the square-free divisor of a natural number Q Psd (n) = d. According to the Dirichlet divisor problem, we turn to study the asymptotic d|n µ(d)6=0

P

formula of

log Psd (n). This article uses the hyperbolic summation and the convolution

n≤x

method to obtain a better error term. Keywords

Square-free number, Dirichlet divisor problem, hyperbolic summation, convolution.

§1. Introduction and main results F.Smarandache introduced the function Pd (n) :=

Q

d in Problem 25[1] . Now we define a

d|n

similar function Psd (n), which denotes the product of all square-free divisors of n, i.e., Y

Psd (n) :=

d.

µ(d)6=0

In the present paper, we shall prove the following Theorem. Theorem. We have the asymptotic formula X

B1 , B2 , B3 , C1 , C2 , D1 , D2 , D3 , D4 are constants.
