§27.1 Special Notation

(For other notation see Notation for the Special Functions.)

d,k,m,n positive integers (unless otherwise indicated).
d\mathbin{|}n d divides n.
\left(m,n\right) greatest common divisor of m,n. If \left(m,n\right)=1, m and n are called relatively prime, or coprime.
\left(d_{1},\dots,d_{n}\right) greatest common divisor of d_{1},\dots,d_{n}.
\sum_{d\mathbin{|}n}, \prod_{d\mathbin{|}n} sum, product taken over divisors of n.
\sum_{\left(m,n\right)=1} sum taken over m, 1\leq m\leq n and m relatively prime to n.
p,p_{1},p_{2},\dots prime numbers (or primes): integers (>1) with only two positive integer divisors, 1 and the number itself.
\sum_{p}, \prod_{p} sum, product extended over all primes.
x,y real numbers.
\sum_{n\leq x} \sum_{n=1}^{\left\lfloor x\right\rfloor}.
\zeta\left(s\right) Riemann zeta function; see §25.2(i).
(n|P) Jacobi symbol; see §27.9.
(n|p) Legendre symbol; see §27.9.
