Abstract:A certain generalized divisor function $d^*(n)$ is studied which counts the number of factorizations of a natural number $n$ into integer powers with prescribed exponents under certain congruence restrictions. An $\Omega $-estimate is established for the remainder term in the asymptotic for its Dirichlet summatory function.
Keywords: multidimensional asymmetric divisor problems
