A central problem in probabilistic number theory is to evaluate asymptotically the partial sums

of multiplicative functions f and, in particular, to find conditions for the existence of the “mean value”

1.1

In the last two decades considerable progress has been made on this problem, and the results obtained are very satisfactory.
