In essence\, we\nare discussing the set of real valued functions f(n) such that\ngcd(n\,[f(n)])=1 happens with probability 1/zeta(2) (in the sense of\nnatural densities)\, and related problems. I will give a general\ngameplan to establishing such results\, and I will pr ove that gcd(n\,\n[alpha_1n]\, [alpha_2n^2]\,...\,[alpha_kn^k])=1 happens with probability\n1/zeta(k+1) foralpha_1\,...\,alpha_k irrational.\n\nMC 5 403\n DTSTAMP:20250711T070725Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
