Evaluation of the Convolution Sum involving the Sum of Divisors Function for 14, 22 and 26

preprint2016arXivOpen access

Abstract

For all natural numbers nn, we discuss the evaluation of the convolution sum, ∑(l,m)∈N02αl+βm=nσ(l)σ(m)\underset{\substack{{(l,m) \in \mathbb{N}_0^2} \\ {α\,l+β\,m=n} } }{\sum}σ(l)σ(m), where αβ=14,22,26αβ=14,22,26. We generalize the extraction of the convolution sum using Eisenstein forms of weight 44 for all pairs of positive integers (α,β)(α,β). We also determine formulae for the number of representations of a positive integer by the octonary quadratic forms a (x12+x22+x32+x42)+b (x52+x62+x72+x82)a\,(x_1^2 + x_2^2 + x_3^2 + x_4^2)+ b\,(x_5^2 + x_6^2 + x_7^2 + x_8^2), where (a,b)=(1,1),(1,3),(2,3),(1,9)(a,b)= (1,1), (1,3), (2,3), (1,9). These numbers of representations of a positive integer are applications of the evaluation of certain convolution sums by J. G. Huard et al., A. Alaca et al. and D. Ye.
