We say that a function f defined on R or Qp has a well defined weak Mellin transform (or weak zeta integral) if there exists some function $M\_f(s)$ so that we have $Mell(\phi \star f,s) = Mell(\phi,s)M\_f(s)$ for all test functions $\phi$…

Given a suitable ordering of the positive root system associated with a semisimple Lie algebra, there exists a natural correspondence between Verma modules and related polynomial algebras. With this, the Lie algebra action on a Verma module…

For every odd p \geq 3, we investigate representation theory of the vertex algebra WW_{2,p} associated to (2,p) minimal models for the Virasoro algebras. We demonstrate that vertex algebras WW_{2,p} are C_2--cofinite and irrational.…

We study the space of vector valued theta functions for the Weil representation of a positive definite even lattice of rank two with fundamental discriminant. We work out the relation of this space to the corresponding scalar valued theta…

Theta series for lattices with indefinite signature $(n_+,n_-)$ arise in many areas of mathematics including representation theory and enumerative algebraic geometry. Their modular properties are well understood in the Lorentzian case…

Motivated by the works of Liu, we provide a unified approach to find Appell-Lerch series and Hecke-type series representations for mock theta functions. We establish a number of parameterized identities with two parameters $a$ and $b$.…

We introduce a notion of positive definiteness for functions $f\!:P\to\mathbb{R}$ defined on meet semilattices $(P,\preceq,\wedge)$ and prove several properties for these functions. In addition, we utilize the $LDL^{\rm T}$ decomposition of…

Certain integrable models are described by pairs (X,Y) of ADET Dynkin diagrams. At high energy these models are expected to have a conformally invariant limit. The S-matrix of the model determines algebraic equations, whose solutions are…
