The simplest partition function, associated with homogeneous symmetric forms S of degree r in n variables, is integral discriminant J_{n|r}(S) = \int e^{-S(x_1 ... x_n)} dx_1 ... dx_n. Actually, S-dependence remains the same if e^{-S} in…

In this paper we find the number of homogeneous polynomials of degree d such that they vanish on cuspidal modular forms of even weight $m\geq 2$ that form a basis for $S_m(\Gamma_0(N))$. We use these cuspidal forms to embedd $X_0(N)$ to…

Every symmetric polynomial p(x)=p(x_1,...,x_g) (with real coefficients) in g noncommuting variables x_1, ..., x_g can be written as a sum and difference of squares of noncommutative polynomials. Let s(p), the negative signature of p, denote…
