A note on multiplicative automatic sequences, II

Abstract: We prove that any q‐automatic multiplicative function f:N→C either essentially coincides with a Dirichlet character, or vanishes on all sufficiently large primes. This confirms a strong form of a conjecture of Bell, Bruin and Coons [Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 364 (2012) 933–959].

“…We confirm this conjecture and give some additional structural results. A similar result is also obtained in an upcoming preprint of Klurman and Kurlberg . Theorem If a:double-struckN0C is an automatic multiplicative sequence, then there exists a threshold p and sequence χ which is either a Dirichlet character or identically zero such that a(n)=χ(n) for all n not divisible any prime p<p.…”

“…That said, one realizes immediately that the answer to such a question is negative as periodic functions are automatic sequences and there are many examples of periodic, multiplicative functions. 3 Besides, even amongst non-periodic automatic sequences there are examples of (completely) multiplicative, zero mean functions [2], [40], [43], see also recent [24], [26] for a significant progress on characterizing such sequences. On the other hand, it has been proved in [13] that many automatic sequences given by so-called bijective substitutions are orthogonal to all zero mean, bounded, multiplicative functions (in [9], it is proved that they are orthogonal to the Möbius function).…”

“…This has been strengthened in [20] to Weyl almost periodicity (in the primitive case). Relatively recently, multiplicative automatic sequence have been studied in numerous papers, [1,3,4,6,7,12,[17][18][19]21,22,26], and [30]. A particular focus was put on the study of the case of completely multiplicative automatic sequences [1,21] with a complete classification given in [22].…”
