The functions $F$ and $G$ under consideration are close to two nicely behaved functions $A$ and $B$, such that the average value of $A(n-h)B(n)$ over any arithmetic progression is only dependent on the common difference of the progression. We use this method on the problem of finding mean value of $K(N)$, where $K(N)/\\log N$ is the expected number of primes such that a random elliptic curve over rationals has $N$ points when reduced over those primes.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-08-15T05:26:50.000Z", "title": "Average Value of Product of Two Shifted Multiplicative Functions", "abstract": "If F and G are two 'good' multiplicative functions then we compute the average value of F(n-h)G(n) for any fixed integer h.
