Dickman function  

Definition

  • In analytic number theory, the Dickman function or Dickman–de Bruijn function ρ is a special function used to estimate the proportion of smooth numbers up to a given bound. It was first studied by actuary Karl Dickman, who defined it in his only mathematical publication, which is not easily available, and later studied by the Dutch mathematician Nicolaas Govert de Bruijn.
