C5. Let n EZ. If f is a multiplicative arithmetic function and pi is the prime factorization of n. prove that μ(d)/(d)-| | (1-f(pi)) d n, d>0 For convenience, here's a summary of some potentially useful definitions and facts from our last lecture: For any two arithmetic functions f and g, the convolution of f with g is f(n) * g(n) = (f * g)(n) = dn, d 0 d n, d>0 1 denotes the constant function which maps every...
