Abstract

Given an integer n ≥ 2, let λ(n) := (log n)/(log γ(n)), where γ(n) = Πp|n p, stand for the index of composition of n, with λ(1) = 1. We study the distribution function of (λ(n) – 1) log n as n runs through particular sets of integers, such as the shifted primes, the values of a given irreducible cubic polynomial and the shifted powerful numbers.
