Harmonic Lemma

The Harmonic Lemma says that the values of \lfloor n/i \rfloor only change about 2\sqrt{n} times, so you can iterate those value blocks in O(\sqrt{n}) instead of O(n).

Möbius Function and Inversion

The Möbius function μ(n) is 0 if n has a squared prime factor, otherwise it is (-1)^k where k is the number of distinct prime factors.

Divisor Function Sums

Summing the divisor function d(i) up to n equals counting lattice points under the hyperbola xy ≤ n, which can be done in O(√n) using floor-division blocks.

Multiplicative Functions

A multiplicative function is an arithmetic function f with f(mn) = f(m)f(n) whenever gcd(m, n) = 1.
