Problem Statement

Let nn be a positive integer. Let DnD_n be the set of all divisors of nn and let f(n)f(n) denote the smallest natural mm such that the elements of DnD_n are pairwise distinct in mod mm. Show that there exists a natural NN such that for all nNn \geq N, one has f(n)n0.01f(n) \leq n^{0.01}.
