Is the factorization of $a_m-a_n$ affected by the fact that $\Sigma \frac{1}{a_k}<+\infty$?
I would like to ask the following.
Let $(a_n)$ be a sequence of natural numbers such that
$\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{a_k}$ converges. Is it true that for
infinitely many $m$, there is a $n<m$ ...

Closed form expression for this zeta-like series involving GCD and LCM
I am looking for a closed form for this function $\Lambda:\mathbb{Q}^+\to\mathbb{R}^+$:
$$\Lambda(q) = \sum_{m,n\geq 1}\left(\frac{q\wedge\frac{m}{n}}{q\vee\frac{m}{n}}\right)^\alpha\left(\frac{m \...

Mysterious recursion for the A005225
Let $a(n)$ be A005225 i.e. number of permutations of length $n$ with equal cycles. Here
$$
a(n)=n!\sum\limits_{d|n}\frac{1}{d!(\frac{n}{d})^d}
$$
Let
$$
R(n,q,z)=(q+1)R(n-1,q+1,z)+\sum\limits_{j=0}^{q}...

Approximation of $\sum_{\substack{n\geq 1\\n\text{ is abundant}}}\frac{\sigma(n)}{n^3}$, where $\sigma(n)$ denotes the sum of divisors function
Let $\sigma(n)=\sum_{1\leq d\mid n}d$ the sum of divisors function then, from the theory of Dirichlet series, it is well-known the value of $$\sum_{n=1}^\infty\frac{\sigma(n)}{n^3},$$
in terms of ...
