We present some applications of the Kudla-Millson and the Millson theta lift. The two lifts map weakly holomorphic modular functions to vector valued harmonic Maass forms of weight $3/2$ and $1/2$, respectively. We give finite algebraic…

In the paper, we give partition-theoretic results for the coefficients of some mock theta functions and prove their congruence properties. Some recurrence relations connecting the coefficients of the mock theta functions with certain…

The study of arithmetic properties of coefficients of modular forms $f(\tau) = \sum a(n)q^n$ has a rich history, including deep results regarding congruences in arithmetic progressions. Recently, work of C.-S. Radu, S. Ahlgren, B. Kim, N.…

We employ spectral methods of automorphic forms to establish a holomorphic projection operator for tensor products of vector-valued harmonic weak Maass forms and vector-valued modular forms. We apply this operator to discover simple…

It is well known that Ramanujan conjectured congruences modulo powers of 5, 7 and and 11 for the partition function. These were subsequently proved by Watson (1938) and Atkin (1967). In 2009 Choi, Kang, and Lovejoy proved congruences modulo…

We analyze the mock modular behavior of $\bar{P}_\omega(q)$, a partition function introduced by Andrews, Dixit, Schultz, and Yee. This function arose in a study of smallest parts functions related to classical third order mock theta…

We show that the Zagier-Eisenstein series shares its non-holomorphic part with certain weak Maass forms whose holomorphic parts are generating functions for overpartition rank differences. This has a number of consequences, including exact…

In his 1984 AMS Memoir, George Andrews defined the family of $k$--colored generalized Frobenius partition functions. These are denoted by $c\phi_k(n)$ where $k\geq 1$ is the number of colors in question. In that Memoir, Andrews proved…

We utilize Dyson's concept of the adjoint of a partition to derive an infinite family of new polynomial analogues of Euler's Pentagonal Number Theorem. We streamline Dyson's bijection relating partitions with crank <= k and those with k in…

Ramanujan's congruence $p(5k+4) \equiv 0 \pmod 5$ led Dyson \cite{dyson} to conjecture the existence of a measure "rank" such that $p(5k+4)$ partitions of $5k+4$ could be divided into sub-classes with equal cardinality to give a direct…

We conjecture a structure formula for the $\mathrm{SU}(r)$ Vafa-Witten partition function for surfaces with holomorphic 2-form. The conjecture is based on $S$-duality and a structure formula for the vertical contribution previously derived…

Recently, Mertens, Ono, and the third author studied mock modular analogues of Eisenstein series. Their coefficients are given by small divisor functions, and have shadows given by classical Shimura theta functions. Here, we construct a…

Let $f(q)$ denote Ramanujan's mock theta function \[f(q) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a(n) q^{n} := 1+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{q^{n^{2}}}{(1+q)^{2}(1+q^{2})^{2}\cdots(1+q^{n})^{2}}.\] It is known that there are many linear congruences for the…

We construct a natural basis for the space of weak harmonic Maass forms of weight 5/2 on the full modular group. The non-holomorphic part of the first element of this basis encodes the values of the ordinary partition function p(n). We…

In this Ph.D dissertation (University of Virginia, 2022), we prove results about the coefficients of partition-theoretic generating functions and of coefficients of integer weight modular forms. Using various forms of the circle method, we…

We analyze the coefficients of partition functions of Vafa-Witten theory for the complex projective plane $\mathbb{CP}^2$. We experimentally study the growth of the coefficients for gauge group $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$, which are examples of…

New congruences are found for Andrews' smallest parts partition function spt(n). The generating function for spt(n) is related to the holomorphic part alpha(24z) of a certain weak Maass form M(z) of weight 3/2. We show that a normalized…

We prove a number of unconditional statistical results of the Hecke coefficients for unitary cuspidal representations of $\operatorname{GL}(2)$ over number fields. Using partial bounds on the size of the Hecke coefficients, instances of…

In 2007, Andrews studied the odd Durfee symbols and their odd ranks. Let $N^0(m,k,n)$ denote the number of odd Durfee symbols of $n$ with odd rank congruent to $m$ modulo $k$. Motivated by Andrews' work, many authors obtained generating…

We develop the theory of copartitions, which are a generalization of partitions with connections to many classical topics in partition theory, including Rogers-Ramanujan partitions, theta functions, mock theta functions, partitions with…
