Abstract

In [5], the first author and A. Sankaranarayanan established an upper bound for the sum ∑n≤xf(n), where f(n) is a multiplicative function for which the sum ∑p∈If(p)p−it is small for certain intervals I. In this paper we consider functions f(p), for which |∑p∈If(p)p−it+∫I[Formula presented]du| is small.
