For integers $N\geq 1$ we define $$s(N)=\sigma(N)-N$$ the aliquot sum function, where $\sigma(N)=\sum_{1\leq d|N}d$ is the sum of divisors function. Here $(x)_n$ is the Pochhammer symbol and ${a\...

Let $(n_k)_{1 \leq k \leq N}$ be a sequence of distinct positive integers. For $v \in \mathbb{Z}$ set $$ A_N(v) = \# \Big\{ (k,\ell) \in \{1, \dots, N\}^2, ~k \neq \ell:\quad n_k - n_\ell = v \Big\}. $...
