Egyptian fractions meet the Sierpinski triangle

We explore a novel link between two seemingly disparate mathematical concepts: Egyptian fractions and fractals. By examining the decomposition of rationals into sums of distinct unit fractions, a practice rooted in ancient Egyptian mathematics, and the arithmetic operations that can be performed using this decomposition, we uncover fractal structures that emerge from these representations.

Approximating the divisor functions

We exploit the properties of a sequence of functions that approximate the divisor functions and combine them with an analytical formula of a delta-like sequence to give a new proof of a theorem of Gronwall on the asymptotic of the divisor functions.
