Using the theory of metaplectic forms,we study the asymptotic behavior of cubic exponential sums over the ring of Eisenstein integers. In the first part of the paper, some non-trivial estimates on average over arithmetic progressions are…

We study two models of random multiplicative functions: Rademacher random multiplicative functions supported on the squarefree integers $f$, and Rademacher random completely multiplicative functions $f^*$. We prove that the partial sums…

Motivated by weighted partition of $n$ that vanish if and only if $n$ is a prime, Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono conjecture a classification of quasimodular forms which detect primes in the sense that the $n$-th Fourier coefficient vanishes…

In this article, we show that Fourier eigenmeasures supported on spheres with radii given by a locally finite sequence, which we call $k$-spherical measures, correspond to Fourier series exhibiting a modular-type transformation behaviour…

Inspired by the work of S. Ramanujan, many people have studied generalized modular equations and the numerous identities found by Ramanujan. These identities known as modular equations can be transformed into polynomial equations. There is…

We prove that the symmetric-cube coefficients $A_n=(-27)^n[z^n]\,_2F_1(1/3,1/3;1;z)^3$ satisfy the supercongruence $A(mp)\equiv A(m) \bmod p^4$ for every prime $p\geq 5$ and every $m\geq 1$. The proof rests on three ingredients: (i) the…

This paper studies the Fourier expansion of Hecke-Maass eigenforms for $GL(2, \mathbb Q)$ of arbitrary weight, level, and character at various cusps. Translating well known results in the theory of adelic automorphic representations into…

In this paper, we discuss questions related to the oscillatory behavior and the equidistribution of signs for certain subfamilies of Fourier coefficients of integral weight newforms with a non-trivial nebentypus as well as Fourier…

Let $N \ge 1$, $k \ge 2$ even, and $\sigma$ denote a sign pattern for $N$. In this paper, we first determine the exact proportion of forms in $S_k(N)$ and $S_k^\mathrm{new}(N)$ with a given Atkin-Lehner sign pattern $\sigma$. Then we study…

Let \tau(.) be the Ramanujan \tau-function, and let k be a positive integer such that \tau(n) is not 0 for n=1,...,[k/2]. (This is known to be true for k < 10^{23}, and, conjecturally, for all k.) Further, let s be a permutation of the set…

We specialize the Eichler-Selberg trace formula to obtain trace formulas for the prime-to-level Hecke action on cusp forms for certain congruence groups of arbitrary level. As a consequence, we determine the asymptotic in the prime p of the…

Zagier proved that the traces of singular values of the classical j-invariant are the Fourier coefficients of a weight 3/2 modular form and Duke provided a new proof of the result by establishing an exact formula for the traces using…

In the present paper we study the central values of additive twists of Maa{\ss} forms $L$-series. In the case of the modular group, we show that the additive twists (when averaged over denominators) are asymptotically normally distributed.…

We give explicit upper bounds for the coefficients of arbitrary weight $k$, level 2 cusp forms, making Deligne's well-known $O(n^{\frac{k-1}{2}+\epsilon})$ bound precise. We also derive asymptotic formulas and explicit upper bounds for the…

We introduce a smooth variance sum associated to a pair of positive definite symmetric integral matrices $A_{m\times m}$ and $B_{n\times n}$, where $m\geq n$. By using the oscillator representation, we give a formula for this variance sum…

Cohn and Kumar showed the quadratic character of $q$ modulo $p$ gives the sign of the permutation of Hurwitz primes of norm $p$ induced by the Hurwitz primes of norm $q$ under metacommutation. We demonstrate that these permutations are…

We prove that the span of normalized characters of subprincipal admissible modules over an affine Lie algebra of subprincipal admissible level $k$ is $SL_2(\mathbf{Z})$-invariant and find the explicit modular transformation formula.

In this paper, we give criteria for infinitely many sign changes of the coefficients of any Dirichlet series if the coefficients are real numbers. We also provide examples where our criteria are applicable.

Cusp forms for the full modular group can be written as linear combination of double Eisenstein series introduced by Gangl, Kaneko and Zagier. We give an explicit formula for decomposing a Hecke eigenform into double Eisenstein series.
