Summary:We obtain, for T ε ≤ U = U ( T )≤ T 1/2− ε , asymptotic formulas for where Δ( x ) is the error term in the classical divisor problem, and E ( T ) is the error term in the mean square formula for . Upper bounds of the form O ε ( T 1+ ε U 2 ) for the above integrals with biquadrates instead of square are shown to hold for T 3/8 ≤ U = U ( T ) ≪ T 1/2 . The connection between the moments of E ( t + U )− E ( t ) and is also given. Generalizations to some other number-theoretic error terms are discussed.
