On the multiplicative properties of arithmetic functions

Donald Goldsmith

Vol. 27 (1968), No. 2, 283–304
Abstract

In this paper we define a generalization of the set of all pairs of relatively prime natural numbers and then define a limit process to measure the multiplicativity of an arithmetic function with respect to this generalized set of pairs. In so doing we gain useful information about that most important special case, namely, functions which are multiplicative in the usual sense.
