On the symmetry of the Liouville function in almost all short intervals
  We prove a kind of "almost all symmetry" result for the Liouville function $\lambda(n):=(-1)^{\Omega(n)}$, giving non-trivial bounds for its "symmetry integral", say $I_{\lambda}(N,h)$ : we get $I_{\lambda}(N,h)\ll NhL^3+Nh^{21/20}$, with $L:=\log N$. We also give similar results for other related arithmetic functions, like the M\"{o}bius function $\mu(n)$ ($=\lambda(n)$ on square-free $n$).
