An upper bound for the
norm of a GCD-related matrix
Journal of Inequalities and Applications volume 2006, Article number: 25020 (2006)
Abstract
We find an upper bound for the norm of the
matrix whose
entry is
, where
and
are the greatest common divisor and the least common multiple of
and
and where
and
are real numbers. In fact, we show that if
and
, then
for all positive integers
, where
is the Riemann zeta function.
