Abstract: |
Let $ n=p_{1}p_{2}\cdots p_{k}$, where $p_i~(1\le i\le k)$ are
primes in the descending order and are not all equal. Let $\Omega_k
(n)= P(p_{1}+ p_{2})P(p_{2}+ p_{3})\cdots
P(p_{k-1}+p_{k})P(p_{k}+p_{1})$, where $P(n)$ is the largest prime
factor of $n$. Define $w^{0}(n)=n$ and $w^{i}(n)=w(w^{i-1}(n))$ for
all integers $i\ge 1$. The smallest integer $s$ for which there
exists a positive integer $t$ such that
$\Omega_k^{s}(n)=\Omega_k^{s+t}(n)$ is called the index of
periodicity of $n$. The authors investigate the index of periodicity
of $n$. |
