On ${\mathcal{B}}^4$-almost periodicity for a class of arithmetical functions

Abstract

In this paper, we establish the ${\mathcal{B}}^4$-almost periodicity in the sense of Besicovitch for a suitably normalized error term associated with a broad class of arithmetical functions introduced by Chandrasekharan and Narasimhan. This result significantly strengthens ${\mathcal{B}}^2$-almost periodicity previously investigated in the literature for related error terms. By deriving truncated Voronoï-type formulas, we demonstrate that the normalized error term lies in the Besicovitch space $B^4$. As a consequence, we deduce that the error term admits a limit probability distribution and establish an explicit formula for its mean fourth power moment.
