Let f be a newform of weight at least 2 and squarefree level with Fourier coefficients in a number field K. We give explicit bounds, depending on congruences of f with other newforms, on the set of primes lambda of K for which the…

Much is known about binomial coefficients where primes are concerned, but considerably less is known regarding prime powers and composites. This paper provides two conjectures in these directions, one about counting binomial coefficients…

Let $M$ be a matroid on a set $E$ and let $w:E\longrightarrow G$ be a weight function, where $G$ is a cyclic group. Assuming that $w(E)$ satisfies the Pollard's Condition (i.e. Every non-zero element of $w(E)-w(E)$ generates $G$), we obtain…

Let $E_{/_\Q}$ be an elliptic curve of conductor $Np$ with $p\nmid N$ and let $f$ be its associated newform of weight 2. Denote by $f_\infty$ the $p$-adic Hida family passing though $f$, and by $F_\infty$ its $\Lambda$-adic Saito-Kurokawa…

Let $n, k$ and $a$ be positive integers. The Stirling numbers of the first kind, denoted by $s(n,k)$, count the number of permutations of $n$ elements with $k$ disjoint cycles. Let $p$ be a prime. In recent years, Lengyel, Komatsu and…

The Prime Number Theorem states that the number of primes in $\{1,\ldots,x\}$, denoted $\pi(x)$, is approximately $\frac{x}{\ln(x)}$. In this paper, we investigate the distribution of primes for domains other than $\N$. First we look at…

For any rational prime $p$, we define a certain $p$-stabilization of holomorphic Siegel Eisenstein series for the symplectic group ${\rm Sp}(2n)_{/\mathbb{Q}}$ of an arbitrary genus $n \ge 1$. In addition, we derive an explicit formula for…

We consider some questions related to the signs of Hecke eigenvalues or Fourier coefficients of classical modular forms. One problem is to determine to what extent those signs, for suitable sets of primes, determine uniquely the modular…

This article studies the first-order $p$-adic deformations of classical weight one newforms, relating their fourier coefficients to the $p$-adic logarithms of algebraic numbers in the field cut out by the associated projective Galois…

In this paper, we generalize D. H. Lehmer's result to give a sufficient condition for level one cusp forms $f$ with integral Fourier coefficients such that the smallest $n$ for which the coefficients $a_n(f)=0$ must be a prime. Then we…

Brizolis asked the question: does every prime p have a pair (g,h) such that h is a fixed point for the discrete logarithm with base g? The first author previously extended this question to ask about not only fixed points but also…

Suppose $p$ is a prime, $t$ is a positive integer, and $f\!\in\!\mathbb{Z}[x]$ is a univariate polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients of absolute value $<\!p^t$. We show that for any fixed $t$, we can compute the number of roots in…

Let $1\le p_0<p,q <q_0\le \infty$. Given a pair of weights $(w,\sigma)$ and a sparse family $\mathcal S$, we study the two weight inequality for the following bi-sublinear form \[ B(f, g)= \sum_{Q\in\mathcal S}\langle…

We prove an asymptotic formula for primes of the shape $f(a,b^2)$ with $a,b$ integers and of the shape $f(a,p^2)$ with $p$ prime. Here $f$ is a binary quadratic form with integer coefficients, irreducible over $\mathbb{Q}$ and has no local…

Let $f$ be a normalized, ordinary newform of weight $\ge 2$. For each prime $\mathfrak{p}$ of $F=\mathbb{Q}(a_n)_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$, there is an associated $\mathfrak{p}$-adic $L$-function $\mathcal{L}_\mathfrak{p}(f)\in \Lambda \otimes…

We present a natural, combinatorial problem whose solution is given by the meta-Fibonacci recurrence relation $a(n) = \sum_{i=1}^p a(n-i+1 - a(n-i))$, where $p$ is prime. This combinatorial problem is less general than those given in [3]…

Let f be a modular form with complex multiplication. If f has critical slope, then Coleman's classicality theorem implies that there is a p-adic overconvergent generalized Hecke eigenform with the same Hecke eigenvalues as f. We give a…
