Conjecture for the floor-function sum and class numbers of odd squarefree integers

About 1 year old · traced to

Let nn be an odd squarefree positive integer, and let h∗(−p)=h(−p)h^*(-p)=h(-p) for p≥7p\geq7 and h∗(−3)=1/3h^*(-3)=1/3. The odd-squarefree class-number conjecture. If n≡1(mod4)n\equiv1\pmod{4}, then

f(n)=−12∑d∣n\d≡3(mod4)h∗(−d).f(n)=-\frac12\sum_{\substack{d\mid n\d\equiv3\pmod{4}}}h^*(-d).

If n≡3(mod4)n\equiv3\pmod{4}, then

f(n)=1−n4−12∑d∣n\d≡3(mod4)h∗(−d).f(n)=\frac{1-n}{4}-\frac12\sum_{\substack{d\mid n\d\equiv3\pmod{4}}}h^*(-d).

The conjecture extends several previously established special cases and is described as the opposite extreme of the prime-power results; the supplied text does not establish it in general.
