Problem 401: Sum of squares of divisors
(see projecteuler.net/problem=401)
The divisors of 6 are 1,2,3 and 6.
The sum of the squares of these numbers is 1+4+9+36=50.
Let sigma2(n) represent the sum of the squares of the divisors of n. Thus sigma2(6)=50.
Let SIGMA2 represent the summatory function of sigma2, that is SIGMA2(n)=sum{sigma2(i)} for i=1 to n.
The first 6 values of SIGMA2 are: 1,6,16,37,63 and 113.
Find SIGMA2(10^15) mod 10^9.
My Algorithm
Any number i has \lfloor frac{n}{i} \rfloor multiples (integer division).
When calculating SIGMA2(6):
- 1 has \lfloor frac{6}{1} \rfloor = 6 multiples, add 6 * 1^2 = 6 * 1 = 6
- 2 has \lfloor frac{6}{2} \rfloor = 3 multiples, add 3 * 2^2 = 3 * 4 = 24
- 3 has \lfloor frac{6}{3} \rfloor = 2 multiples, add 2 * 3^2 = 2 * 9 = 18
- 4 has \lfloor frac{6}{4} \rfloor = 1 multiples, add 1 * 4^2 = 1 * 16 = 16
- 5 has \lfloor frac{6}{5} \rfloor = 1 multiples, add 1 * 5^2 = 1 * 25 = 25
- 6 has \lfloor frac{6}{6} \rfloor = 1 multiples, add 1 * 6^2 = 1 * 36 = 36
Unfortunately this requires n iterations, which is no problem for n = 6 but next to impossible for n = 15.
Looking closer at the example reveals that half of the divisors appears only once (4, 5 and 6).
In general, a few number appear very often and the majority just a few times.
Because i appears \lfloor frac{n}{i} \rfloor times, i <= \lfloor frac{n}{i} \rfloor if i <= sqrt{n}.
If i > sqrt{n} then several squares appear the same time. As mentioned before, there are three squares that appear once.
My program applies the basic algorithm for all numbers up to sqrt{n}, which needs sqrt{10^15} approx 3.2 * 10^7 iterations.
Then it determines which squares appear once, twice, etc. going backwards from 10^15 to sqrt{n}.
This can be quite efficient because the sum of a series of squares is (see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_pyramidal_number):
P(n) = sum_{k=1...n}{k^2} = dfrac{n (n + 1) (2n + 1)}{6}
The largest square pyramidal number that appears exactly m times is \lfloor frac{n}{m} \rfloor.
To obtain the sum of all square that appear m times I calculate P(\lfloor frac{n}{m} \rfloor) - P(\lfloor frac{n}{m+1} \rfloor).
pyramidal(n)
returns the n-th square pyramidal number (mod 10^9). This function is rather tricky because I hit the limits of C++'s 64 bit integers.Luckily, G++ has routines for 128 bit integers to work around this issue - but therefore this code doesn't compile with Visual C++.
The code is scattered with mod statement. Maybe a few are redundant.
Note
Apparently you can implement pyramidal
without __int128
.
Interactive test
You can submit your own input to my program and it will be instantly processed at my server:
This is equivalent toecho 6 | ./401
Output:
Note: the original problem's input 1000000000000000
cannot be entered
because just copying results is a soft skill reserved for idiots.
(this interactive test is still under development, computations will be aborted after one second)
