Type IIA string theory compactified on an elliptic CY3-fold gives rise to N=2 U(1) gauge theory with an adjoint hypermultiplet. We study the refined open and closed topological string partition functions of this geometry using the refined…
In this paper we review the coset construction for winding subalgebras of affine Lie algebras. We classify all cosets of central charge $\hat c<1$ and calculate their branching rules. The corresponding character identities give certain…
We focus on writing closed forms of generating functions for the number of partitions with gap conditions as double sums starting from a combinatorial construction. Some examples of the sets of partitions with gap conditions to be discussed…
In this paper we study higher level Deligne--Lusztig representations of reductive groups over discrete valuation rings, with finite residue field $\mathbb{F}_q$. In previous work we proved that, at even levels, these geometrically…
We present an algebraic approach to string theory. An embedding of $sl(2|1)$ in a super Lie algebra together with a grading on the Lie algebra determines a nilpotent subalgebra of the super Lie algebra. Chirally gauging this subalgebra in…
We present an infinite family of identities that represent Ramanujan's tau function in terms of convolution sums of twisted divisor functions. Our method involves explicitly constructing non-vanishing level $1$ cusp forms from modular forms…
We compute all string tree level correlation functions of vertex operators in $c<1$ string theory. This is done by using the ring structure of the theory. In order to study the multicritical behaviour, we calculate the correlation functions…
Character sumrules associated with the realization of the $N=4$ superconformal algebra $\At$ on manifolds corresponding to the group cosets $SU(3)_{\ktp }/U(1)$ are derived and developed as an important tool in obtaining the modular…
We examine combinatorial counting functions with two parameters, $n$ and $q$. For fixed $q$, these functions are (quasi-)polynomial in $n$. As $q$ varies, the degree of this polynomial is itself polynomial in $q$, as are the leading…
We construct a uniformly discrete, and even sparse, sequence of real numbers $\Lambda=\{\lambda_n\}$ and a function g in $L^2(R)$, such that for every q>2, every function f in $L^2(R)$ can be approximated with arbitrary small error by a…
A $\{0,1\}$-valued function on a two-dimensional rectangular grid is called threshold if its sets of zeros and ones are separable by a straight line. In this paper we study 2-threshold functions, i.e. functions representable as the…
We investigate spt-crank-type functions arising from Bailey pairs. We recall four spt-type functions corresponding to the Bailey pairs $A1$, $A3$, $A5$, and $A7$ of Slater and given four new spt-type functions corresponding to Bailey pairs…
We prove that there is a correspondence between Ramanujan-type formulas for 1/\pi, and formulas for Dirichlet L-values. The same method also allows us to resolve certain values of the Epstein zeta function in terms of rapidly converging…
We present two general finite extensions for each of the two Rogers-Ramanujan identities. Of these one can be derived directly from Watson's transformation formula by specialization or through Bailey's method, the second similar formula can…
In this paper we will establish some double-angle formulas related to the inverse function of $\int_0^x dt/\sqrt{1-t^6}$. This function appears in Ramanujan's Notebooks and is regarded as a generalized version of the lemniscate function.
We classify the Boolean degree $1$ functions of $k$-spaces in a vector space of dimension $n$ (also known as Cameron-Liebler classes) over the field with $q$ elements for $n \geq n_0(k, q)$. This also implies that two-intersecting sets with…
This paper studies the approximation of generalized ridge functions, namely of functions which are constant along some submanifolds of $\mathbb{R}^N$. We introduce the notion of linear-sleeve functions, whose function values only depend on…
Carbery proved that if $u:\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ is a positive, strictly convex function satisfying $\det D^2u \geq 1$, then we have the estimate $$ \left| \left\{x \in \mathbb{R}^n: u(x) \leq s \right\} \right| \lesssim_n…
We highlight the role of q-series techniques in proving identities arising from knot theory. In particular, we prove Rogers-Ramanujan type identities for alternating knots as conjectured by Garoufalidis, Le and Zagier.
We test oscillator level truncation regularization in string field theory by calculating descent relations among vertices, or equivalently, the overlap of wedge states. We repeat the calculation using bosonic, as well as fermionic ghosts,…
