This paper provides a mean value theorem for arithmetic functions [Formula: see text] defined by [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is an arithmetic function taking values in [Formula: see text] and satisfying some generic conditions. As an application of our main result, we prove that the density [Formula: see text] (respectively, [Formula: see text]) of normal (respectively, primitive) elements in the finite field extension [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] are arithmetic functions of (nonzero) mean values.

One of the most useful results of observations made at short intervals during the day and night, and continued for several years, is the knowledge we thus obtain of the diurnal ranges of the different subjects of investigation, and consequently the difference between the mean values of each element, as deduced from observations at one or more hours daily, and the true mean for the period over which the observations are spread. At the Royal Observatory at Greenwich magnetical and meteorological observations have been taken since the year 1840, as is familiar to the Fellows of this Society. These have been published to the end of the year 1845. The whole of these observations have been made under my immediate superintendence, under the direction of the Astronomer Royal, and I believe that no observations have been made and reduced with greater care or regularity. As the person entrusted with the superintendence of these operations, I have a more perfect knowledge of them than any other person can have; I feel it therefore a duty to communicate their results from time to time, when the doing so promises to be of essential service in promoting the advancement of the subjects of investigation.

In this paper we shall investigate the occurrence of almost-primes in arithmetic progressions and in short intervals. These problems correspond to two well-known conjectures concerning prime numbers. The first conjecture is that, if (l, k) = 1, there exists a prime p satisfying
