The Asymptotic Behavior of Compositions of the Euler and Carmichael Functions

arXiv:1206.0286

Abstract

We compare the asymptotic behavior of Carmichael's lambda function composed with Euler's totient function to the asymptotic behavior of Carmichael's lambda function composed with itself. We establish the normal order of the logarithm of the ratio.
