In this paper we consider the value of the Dirichlet \( L(s,\chi) \) functions at \( s = 1,\chi \) being a non-principal residue-character and \( L(s,\chi) \) being defined for \( \mathfrak{R}(s) > 0 \) by
\[ L(s,\chi) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{\chi(n)}{n^s}. \]

In [1945] Besicovitch needed as a lemma a result of the following type
Given a set \( \Gamma \) of coplanar circles, the center of no one of them being in the interior of another, and \( U \) the circle (or a circle) of \( \Gamma \) whose radius does not exceed the radius of any other circle of \( \Gamma \) , then the number of circles meeting \( U \) does not exceed 18.
Besicovitch proved the weaker theorem obtained from this one by replacing 18 by 21. In this paper we shall prove Theorem 1 as it stands.

Let \( P(n) \) denote the number of partitions of the integer \( n \) into primes (1 is not counted as prime), repetitions being allowed. That is, \( P(n) \) is the number of ways \( n \) can be expressed in the form
\[ n_1p_1 + n_2p_2 + \cdots ,\]
where \( p_j \) denotes the \( j \) th prime number and \( n_1,n_2,\dots \) are arbitrary non-negative integers. The purpose of this note is to prove that
\[ P(n+1) \geq P(n) \quad (n=1,2,3,\dots). \]

Let \( A \) be an arbitrary set of positive integers (finite or infinite) other than the empty set or the set consisting of the single element unity. Let \( p(n) = p_A(n) \) denote the number of partitions of the integer \( n \) into parts taken from the set \( A \) , repetitions being allowed. In other words, \( p(n) \) is the number of ways \( n \) can be expressed in the form
\[ n_1a_1 + n_2a_2 + \cdots ,\]
where \( a_1,a_2,\dots \) are the distinct elements of \( A \) and \( n_1 \) , \( n_2,\dots \) are arbitrary non-negative integers. In this paper we shall prove that \( p(n) \) is a strictly increasing function of \( n \) for sufficiently large \( n \) if and only if \( A \) has the following property (which we shall subsequently call property \( P_1 \) ): \( A \) contains more than one element, and if we remove any single element from \( A \) , the remaining elements have greatest common divisor unity.

This paper uses modular functions on the theta group to derive an exact formula for the sum
\[ \sum_{|j|\leq n^{1/2}}\sigma(n - j^2) \]
in terms of the singular series for the number of representations of an integer as a sum of five squares. (Here \( \sigma(k) \) denotes the sum of the divisors of \( k \) if \( k \) is a positive integer and \( \sigma(0) = -1/24 \) .)
Several related identities are derived and discussed.
Two devices are used in the proofs. The first device establishes the equality of two expressions, neither of which is a modular form, by showing that the square of their difference is a modular form. The second device shows that a certain modular function is identically zero by noting that it has more zeros than poles in a fundamental region.
