Using special polynomials introduced by Hikami and the second author in their study of torus knots, we construct classes of $q$-hypergeometric series lying in the Habiro ring. These give rise to new families of quantum modular forms, and…

It is conjectured (following the Stanley-Stembridge conjecture) that the cohomology rings of regular semisimple Hessenberg varieties yield permutation representations, but the decompositions of the modules are only known in some cases. For…

This paper presents an analysis of primitive permutation groups of degree $3p$, where $p$ is a prime number, analogous to H. Wielandt's treatment of groups of degree $2p$. It is also intended as an example of the systematic use of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and let ${\mathbb F}_p$ denote the finite field with $p$ elements. Suppose that $g$ is a primitive root of ${\mathbb F}_p$. Define the permutation $\tau_g:\,{\mathcal H}_p\to{\mathcal H}_p$ by $$…

We give multidimensional generalizations of several transformation formulae for basic hypergeometric series of a specific type. Most of the upper parameters of the series differ multiplicatively from corresponding lower parameters by a…

Let $R$ be a commutative ring and $n\geq1$ and $p\geq0$ two integers. Let $h_{k,\ i}$ be an element of $R$ for all $k\in\mathbb Z$ and $i\in [n]$. For any $\alpha\in\mathbb Z^n$, we define \[ t_{\alpha}:=\det\begin{pmatrix} h_{\alpha_1+1,\…

Permutation polynomials are of particular significance in several areas of applied mathematics, such as Coding theory and Cryptography. Many recent constructions are based on the Akbary-Ghioca-Wang (AGW) criterion. Along this line of…

In 1855 H. J. S. Smith proved Fermat's two-square using the notion of palindromic continuants. In his paper, Smith constructed a proper representation of a prime number $p$ as a sum of two squares, given a solution of…

Given a permutation, there is a well-developed literature studying the number of ways one can factor it into a product of other permutations subject to certain conditions. We initiate the analogous theory for the type A Iwahori-Hecke…

The author has previously extended the theory of regular and irregular primes to the setting of arbitrary totally real number fields. It has been conjectured that the Bernoulli numbers, or alternatively the values of the Riemann zeta…

A proof of Lagrange's and Jacobi's four-square theorem due to Hurwitz utilizes orders in a quaternion algebra over the rationals. Seeking a generalization of this technique to orders over number fields, we identify two key components: an…

For prime levels $5 \le p \le 19$, sets of $\Gamma_{0}(p)$-permuted theta quotients are constructed that generate the graded rings of modular forms of positive integer weight for $\Gamma_{1}(p)$. An explicit formulation of the permutation…

We give new proofs of two basic results in number theory: The law of quadratic reciprocity and the sign of the Gauss sum. We show that these results are encoded in the relation between the discrete Fourier transform and the action of the…

For positive integers $q$, Dirichlet's theorem states that there are infinitely many primes in each reduced residue class modulo $q$. A stronger form of the theorem states that the primes are equidistributed among the $\varphi(q)$ reduced…

We define a $q$-deformation of the classical ring of integer-valued polynomials which we call the ring of quantum integer-valued polynomials. We show that this ring has a remarkable combinatorial structure and enjoys many positivity…

This paper presents algorithms for calculating the quadratic character and the norms of prime ideals in the ring of integers of any quadratic field. The norms of prime ideals are obtained by means of a sieve algorithm using the quadratic…

The non-trivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function and the prime numbers can be plotted by a modified von Mangoldt function. The series of non-trivial zeta zeros and prime numbers can be given explicitly by superposition of harmonic waves.…

The Hurwitz problem of composition of quadratic forms, or of "sum of squares identity" is tackled with the help of a particular class of $(\mathbb{Z}_2)^n$-graded non-associative algebras generalizing the octonions. This method provides an…
