 Some Normal Numbers Generated by Arithmetic Functions Let $g \geq 2$. A real number is said to be $g$-normal if its base $g$ expansion contains every finite sequence of digits with the expected limiting frequency. Let $\phi$ denote Euler's totient function, let $\sigma$ be the sum-of-divisors function, and let $\lambda$ be Carmichael's lambda-function. We show that if $f$ is any function formed by composing $\phi$, $\sigma$, or $\lambda$, then the number $0. f(1) f(2) f(3) \dots$ obtained by concatenating the base $g$ digits of successive $f$-values is $g$-normal. We also prove the same result if the inputs $1, 2, 3, \dots$ are replaced with the primes $2, 3, 5, \dots$. The proof is an adaptation of a method introduced by Copeland and ErdÅs in 1946 to prove the $10$-normality of $0.235711131719\ldots$. Keywords:normal number, Euler function, sum-of-divisors function, Carmichael lambda-function, Champernowne's numberCategories:11K16, 11A63, 11N25, 11N37

 Carmichael meets Chebotarev For any finite Galois extension $K$ of $\mathbb Q$ and any conjugacy class $C$ in $\operatorname {Gal}(K/\mathbb Q)$, we show that there exist infinitely many Carmichael numbers composed solely of primes for which the associated class of Frobenius automorphisms is $C$. This result implies that for every natural number $n$ there are infinitely many Carmichael numbers of the form $a^2+nb^2$ with $a,b\in\mathbb Z$.

 Carmichael Numbers with a Square Totient Let $\varphi$ denote the Euler function. In this paper, we show that for all large $x$ there are more than $x^{0.33}$ Carmichael numbers $n\le x$ with the property that $\varphi(n)$ is a perfect square. We also obtain similar results for higher powers. Categories:11N25, 11A25

 Consecutive Large Gaps in Sequences Defined by Multiplicative Constraints In this paper we obtain quantitative results on the occurrence of consecutive large gaps between $B$-free numbers, and consecutive large gaps between nonzero Fourier coefficients of a class of newforms without complex multiplication.
