Motivated by the 1920's seminal work of Major MacMahon, Amdeberhan--Andrews--Tauraso recently introduced an infinite family of $q$-series \[ \mathcal{U}_{t}(a;q):= \sum_{1\le n_1<n_2<\cdots<n_t}…

In this paper, we show an analogue of Kural, McDonald and Sah's result on Alladi's formula for global function fields. Explicitly, we show that for a global function field $K$, if a set $S$ of prime divisors has a natural density…

An attempt is described to extend the notion of Schur functions from Young diagrams to plane partitions. The suggestion is to use the recursion in the partition size, which is easily generalized and deformed. This opens a possibility to…

In this note, we study the arithmetic nature of values of modular functions, meromorphic modular forms and meromorphic quasi-modular forms with respect to arbitrary congruence subgroups, that have algebraic Fourier coefficients. This…
