Two averaged dynamical generalizations of Chowla's conjecture

Abstract

Let k≥1 be an integer and let λ be the Liouville function. In 1965, Chowla gave a conjecture that the values of λ(n+h1),…, λ(n+hk) are asymptotically unrelated for any distinct natural numbers h1, …, hk. In this article, motivated by the recent work of Bergelson and Richter on the dynamical generalizations of the prime number theorem, we will show a dynamical generalization of Chowla's conjecture on average. In the proof, we follow an approach of Qi and Zheng who established a variant of Bergelson and Richter's theorem over irreducible binary cubic forms. Moreover, we will use this approach to show an analogue of the dynamical Chowla's conjecture along the primes on average. In 2016, Tao proved that the two-point logarithmic Chowla's conjecture holds. Recently, Charamaras and Richter generalized Tao's theorem to bounded arithmetic functions and proposed a conjecture that generalizes Chowla's conjecture to bounded multi-variable arithmetic functions. Building on their work, we prove a dynamical generalization of Tao's theorem and a variant for the composition of the sum-of-digits function with the prime Omega function.
