plain-language theorem explainer

The order-zero divisor function evaluates to 4 at 10, matching the explicit list of positive divisors 1, 2, 5 and 10. Number theorists checking small instances of arithmetic functions would cite the equality as a verified base case. The proof reduces to a single native_decide call that computes the value without manual expansion of the divisor set.

Claim. The order-zero sum-of-divisors function satisfies $σ_0(10) = 4$.

background

The module supplies lightweight wrappers around Mathlib arithmetic functions, beginning with the Möbius function and extending to the sum-of-divisors function σ_k. The local sigma abbreviation is defined as ArithmeticFunction.sigma k, which returns the sum of the k-th powers of the divisors of its argument. The upstream sigma declaration in Decision.AbileneParadox defines an unrelated σ-charge measuring the gap between private preference and public vote for an agent.

proof idea

The proof is a one-line wrapper that applies native_decide to evaluate the concrete equality.

why it matters

This supplies a concrete base case inside the arithmetic-functions section of the primes module. It supports later development of Dirichlet algebra and inversion once the basic interfaces stabilize, without feeding any downstream theorems in the current dependency graph.
