In this work, we investigate internal congruences modulo arbitrary powers of $3$ for two functions arising from Ramanujan's classical theta functions $\varphi(q)$ and $\psi(q)$. By letting \begin{align*} \sum_{n\ge 0} ph_3(n)…

We present a proof of Ramanujan's congruences $$p(5n+4) \equiv 0 \pmod 5 \text{ and } \tau(5n+5) \equiv 0 \pmod 5.$$ The proof only requires a limiting case of Jacobi's triple product, a result that Ramanujan knew well, and a technique…

In this paper, we investigate the arithmetic properties of the difference between the number of partitions of a positive integer $n$ with even crank and those with odd crank, denoted $C(n)=c_e(n)-c_o(n)$. Inspired by Ramanujan's classical…

We obtain four Hecke-type double sums for three of Ramanujan's third order mock theta functions. We discuss how these four are related to the new mock theta functions of Andrews' work on $q$-orthogonal polynomials and Bringmann, Hikami, and…

We show that Ramanujan-type congruences are preserved by the action of the shallow Hecke algebra and provide several structure results for them. We discover a dichotomy between congruences originating in Hecke eigenvalues and congruences on…

We address three questions posed by Bibak \cite{KB20}, and generalize some results of Bibak, Lehmer and K G Ramanathan on solutions of linear congruences $\sum_{i=1}^k a_i x_i \equiv b \Mod{n}$. In particular, we obtain explicit expressions…

Let $p(n)$ be the ordinary partition function. In the 1960s Atkin found a number of examples of congruences of the form $p( Q^3 \ell n+\beta)\equiv0\pmod\ell$ where $\ell$ and $Q$ are prime and $5\leq \ell\leq 31$; these lie in two natural…

We present several congruences modulo a power of prime $p$ concerning sums of the following type $\sum_{k=1}^{p-1}{m^k\over k^r}{2k\choose k}^{-1}$ which reveal some interesting connections with the analogous infinite series.

The partition function is known to exhibit beautiful congruences that are often proved using the theory of modular forms. In this paper, we study the extent to which these congruence results apply to the generalized Frobenius partitions…

We investigate congruence relations of the form $p_r(\ell m n + t) \equiv 0 \pmod{\ell}$ for all $n$, where $p_r(n)$ is the number of $r$-colored partitions of $n$ and $m,\ell$ are distinct primes.

We use a generalized Lambert series identity due to the first author to present q-series proofs of recent results of Imamoglu, Raum and Richter concerning recursive formulas for the coefficients of two 3rd order mock theta functions.…

We prove explicit congruences modulo powers of arbitrary primes for three smallest parts functions: one for partitions, one for overpartitions, and one for partitions without repeated odd parts. The proofs depend on $\ell$-adic properties…

Suppose that $\ell \geq 5$ is prime. For a positive integer $N$ with $4 \mid N$, previous works studied properties of half-integral weight modular forms on $\Gamma_0(N)$ which are supported on finitely many square classes modulo $\ell$, in…

Let $\Bbb Z$ be the set of integers. For positive integers $a,b,c$ and $n$ let $N(a,b,c;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by $ax^2+by^2+cz^2$, and let $t(a,b,c;n)$ be the number of representations of $n$ by…

We prove several Ramanujan-type congruences modulo powers of $5$ for partition $k$-tuples with $5$-cores, for $k=2, 3, 4$. We also prove some new infinite families of congruences modulo powers of primes for $k$-tuples with $p$-cores, where…

We obtain upper bounds on the number of solutions to congruences of the type $$ (x_1+s)...(x_{\nu}+s)\equiv (y_1+s)...(y_{\nu}+s)\not\equiv0 \pmod p $$ modulo a prime $p$ with variables from some short intervals. We give some applications…

We prove that Ramanujan-type congruences for integral weight modular forms away from the level and the congruence prime are equivalent to specific congruences for Hecke eigenvalues. In particular, we show that Ramanujan-type congruences are…

We prove congruences, modulo a power of a prime p, for certain finite sums involving central binomial coefficients $\binom{2k}{k}$.

In the theory of harmonic Maass forms and mock modular forms, mock theta functions are distinguished examples which arose from $q$-hypergeometric examples of Ramanujan. Recently, there has been a body of work on higher depth mock modular…

Recently, several mathematicians have investigated various partition functions with the goal of discovering Ramanujan-type congruences. One such function is $\overline{B}_{2^\alpha}(n)$, which represents the number of $2^\alpha-$regular…
