The arithmetic properties of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$ have been the topic of intensive study for the past century. Ramanujan proved that there are linear congruences of the form $p(\ell n+\beta)\equiv 0\pmod\ell$ for the…
For each prime $\ell$, let $|\cdot|_\ell$ be an extension to $\bar \Q$ of the usual $\ell$-adic absolute value on $\Q$. Suppose $g(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty c(n)q^n \in M_{k+\half}(N)$ is an eigenform whose Fourier coefficients are algebraic…
We consider sign changes of Fourier coefficients of Hecke-Maass cusp forms for the group $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb Z)$. When the underlying form is self-dual, we show that there are $\gg_\varepsilon X^{5/6-\varepsilon}$ sign changes among the…
We prove the second author's "denominator conjecture" [40] concerning the common denominators of coefficients of certain linear forms in zeta values. These forms were recently constructed to obtain lower bounds for the dimension of the…
We say that a normalized modular form is of CM type modulo $\ell$ by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ if its Fourier coefficients $a_p$ are congruent to $0$ modulo a prime $\mathcal L\mid \ell$ for every prime $p$ that is inert in $K$. In…
This paper concerns the Onsager-type problem for general 2-dimensional active scalar equations of the form: $\partial_t \theta+u\cdot\nabla \theta= 0$, with $u=T[\theta]$ being a divergence-free velocity field and $T$ being a Fourier…
We investigate the sharp functional inequalities for the coherent state transforms of $SU(N,1)$. These inequalities are rooted in Wehrl's definition of semiclassical entropy and his conjecture about its minimum value. Lieb resolved this…
In this paper, we investigate the signs changes of Fourier coefficients of infinite products of $q$-series of Rogers--Ramanujan type. In particular, we prove a conjecture made by Schlosser--Zhou pertaining to such sign changes for products…
We introduce a one-parameter deformation of the 2-Toda tau-function of (weighted) Hurwitz numbers, obtained by deforming Schur functions into Jack symmetric functions. We show that its coefficients are polynomials in the deformation…
We discuss a conjecture of Gromov and Lawson, later modified by Rosenberg, concerning the existence of metrics of positive scalar curvature. It says that a closed spin manifold $M$ of dimension $n\ge 5$ has such a metric if and only if the…
We provide a proof of the conjecture formulated in \cite{Jak97,JNT01} which states that on a $n$-dimensional flat torus $\T^{n}$, the Fourier transform of squares of the eigenfunctions $|\phi_\lambda|^2$ of the Laplacian have uniform $l^n$…
The Lepton Flavor Universality ratio $R_{\tau/{\mu,e}}\left(D^{(*)}\right)$ poses a challenge to the Standard Model (SM), as B-factory experiments, BaBar, Belle, and the LHCb show $3.31\sigma$ deviations from their theoretical predictions.…
We prove general equidistribution statements (both conditional and unconditional) relating to the Fourier coefficients of arithmetically normalized holomorphic Hecke cusp forms $f_1,\ldots,f_k$ without complex multiplication, of equal…
The conjecture of Leopoldt states that the $p$ - adic regulator of a number field does not vanish. It was proved for the abelian case in 1967 by Brumer, using Baker theory. A conjecture, due to Gross and Kuz'min will be shown here to be in…
Massless overlap fermions in the real representation of two dimensional $SU(N_c)$ gauge theories exhibit a mod($2$) index due to the rigidity of its spectrum when viewed as a function of the background gauge field - lattice gauge fields on…
$\tau$ is playing an important role in the current B-physics indications from experiments of lepton flavor universality violations(LFUV). This suggests it be given increasing attention theoretically in the coming years, given also the fact…
We develop the $(1+1)$d lattice $U(1)$ gauge theory in order to define $2$-flavor massless Schwinger model, and discuss its connection with Haldane conjecture. We propose to use the central-branch Wilson fermion, which is defined by…
Okazaki and Smith discovered many elegant formulas expressing some matrix integrals as some celebrated $q$-series such as the Rogers--Ramanujan functions or Jacobi theta functions. These integrals arise as Wilson line defect half-indices of…
We study the modularity of the functions of the form $r(\tau)^ar(2\tau)^b$, where $a$ and $b$ are integers with $(a,b)\neq (0,0)$ and $r(\tau)$ is the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction, which may be considered as companions to the…
In the 1980s B\"ocherer formulated a conjecture relating the central values of the imaginary quadratic twists of the spin L-function attached to a Siegel modular form $F$ to the Fourier coefficients of $F$. This conjecture has been proved…
