We generalize the determinant representation of the KP $\tau$ functions to the case of the 2D Toda $\tau$ functions. The generating functions for the weighted Hurwitz numbers are a parametric family of 2D Toda $\tau$ functions; for which we…
Hurwitz numbers count covers of curves satisfying fixed ramification data. Via monodromy representation, this counting problem can be transformed to a problem of counting factorizations in the symmetric group. This and other beautiful…
We study the solutions of the wave equation where a massless scalar field is coupled to the Wahlquist metric, a type-D solution. We first take the full metric and then write simplifications of the metric by taking some of the constants in…

The Hankel determinants of a given power series $f$ can be evaluated by using the Jacobi continued fraction expansion of $f$. However the existence of the Jacobi continued fraction needs that all Hankel determinants of $f$ are nonzero. We…

We prove expressions for the inequalities in Hermite's theorem which are conditions for a real polynomial to have real zeros. These expressions generalize the discriminant of a quadratic polynomial and the expression of J. Mar\'ik for a…
We obtain a new proof of Hurwitz's formula for the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta(s, a)$ beginning with Hermite's formula. The aim is to reveal a nice connection between $\zeta(s, a)$ and a special case of the Lommel function $S_{\mu,…

The technique of P\'{o}lya-Hurwitz of partial fractions is implemented to investigate the zeros of finite $q$-Hankel transforms, which are defined in terms of the third $q$-Bessel function of Jackson. The new approach, which is a…
We derive a central limit theorem for the mean-square of random waves in the high-frequency limit over shrinking sets. Our proof applies to any compact Riemannian manifold of arbitrary dimension, thanks to the universality of the local Weyl…
The functions satisfying the mean value property for an n-dimensional cube are determined explicitly. This problem is related to invariant theory for a finite reflection group, especially to a system of invariant differential equations.…
Hurwitz numbers enumerate branched morphisms between Riemann surfaces. For a fixed elliptic target, Hurwitz numbers are intimately related to mirror symmetry following work of Dijkgraaf. In recent work of Chapuy and Dolega a new variant of…

Given the rational power series $h(x) = \sum_{i \geq 0} h_i x^i \in \mathbb{C}[[x]]$, the Hankel determinant of order $n$ is defined as $H_n(h(x)) := \det (h_{i+j})_{0 \leq i,j \leq n-1}$. We explore the relationship between the Hankel…
