On sums of logarithmic averages of gcd-sum functions

Abstract: Let $\gcd(k,j)$ be the greatest common divisor of the integers $k$ and $j$. For any arithmetical function $f$, we establish several asymptotic formulas for weighted averages of gcd-sum functions with weight concerning logarithms, that is $$\sum_{k\leq x}\frac{1}{k} \sum_{j=1}^{k}f(\gcd(k,j)) \log j.$$ More precisely, we give asymptotic formulas for various multiplicative functions such as $f=id$, $\phi$, $id_{1+a}$ and $\phi_{1+a}$ with $-1<a<0$. We also establish some formulas of Dirichlet series having coefficients of the sum function $\sum_{j=1}^{k}s_{k}(j)\log j$ where $s_{k}(j)$ is Anderson--Apostol sums.
