Everything about Prime omega function

Number of prime factors of a natural number

In number theory, the prime omega functions and count the number of prime factors of a natural number. The number of distinct prime factors is assigned to, while counts the total number of prime factors with multiplicity. That is, if we have a prime factorization of of the form for distinct primes, then the prime omega functions are given by and. These prime-factor-counting functions have many important number theoretic relations. Wikipedia →
