Key Points

  • The research aims to provide a unified structural analysis of extremal behavior in multiplicative systems via the divisor-sum ratio.
  • Analyzed three rigidity mechanisms: parity, truncation, and rearrangement rigidity.
  • Developed a common framework for understanding structural rigidity in multiplicative systems.
  • Introduced a structural rearrangement principle with examples illustrating arithmetic constraints.
  • Multiplicity extremality relies on access to small primes and unrestricted exponent growth.
  • Demonstrated that arithmetic constraints significantly reduce multiplicative efficiency.
  • Consolidated independent results into a coherent understanding of multiplicative rigidity.

Abstract

This work presents a unified structural perspective on extremal behavior in multiplicative arithmetic systems through the divisor-sum ratio σ(n)/n. Instead of treating constrained multiplicative families independently, the article develops a common framework based on structural rigidity. Three main rigidity mechanisms are analyzed: 1. parity rigidity;2. truncation rigidity;3. rearrangement rigidity. The paper argues that multiplicative extremality depends simultaneously on:- access to small primes,- unrestricted exponent growth,- and optimal exponent allocation. A structural rearrangement principle is introduced together with explicit examples illustrating how arithmetic constraints reduce multiplicative efficiency. The work consolidates previous independent results into a coherent structural program centered on multiplicative rigidity and constrained multiplicative optimization.
