Abstract

In this paper we consider the problem of exactly evaluating the p-norm of a linear operator linked with arithmetic Dirichlet convolutions. We prove that a simply derived upper bound for this norm is actually attained for several different classes of arithmetic functions including completely multiplicative functions, but not for certain multiplicative functions. Our proof depends fundamentally on the asymptotic distribution properties of smooth numbers.
