Abstract.
Let \(B_{n} = b_{1} + \cdots + b_n, n \geq 1\) where \(b_1, b_2,\cdots\) are independent Bernoulli random variables. In relation with the divisor problem, we evaluate the almost sure asymptotic order of the sums \(\sum\nolimits_{n=1}^{N}{d_{\theta, {\mathcal{D}}}(B_n)}\), where \(d_{\theta,{\mathcal{D}}}(B_n)= \# \{d \in \mathcal{D},d \leq n^{\theta}:d\mid B_n\}\) and \({\mathcal{D}}\) is a sequence of positive integers.
