We extend the geometric interpretation of the roots of the quadratic congruence $\mu^2 \equiv D \pmod m$ as the tops of certain geodesics in the hyperbolic plane to the case when $D$ is square-free and $D\equiv 1\pmod 4$. This allows us to…
In this article using the theory of Eisenstein series, we give rise to the complete evaluation of two Gauss hypergeometric functions. Moreover we evaluate the modulus of each of these functions and the values of the functions in terms of…
Sequence transformations accomplish an acceleration of convergence or a summation in the case of divergence by detecting and utilizing regularities of the elements of the sequence to be transformed. For sufficiently large indices, certain…
For a positive integer $n$ let $H_n=\sum_{k=1}^{n}1/n$ be the $n$th harmonic number. In this note we prove that for any prime $p\ge 7$, $$ \sum_{k=1}^{p-1}\frac{H_k}{k^2}\equiv \sum_{k=1}^{p-1}\frac{H_k^2}{k}…
The special case of the hypergeometric function $_{2}F_{1}$ represents the binomial series $(1+x)^{\alpha}=\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}(\:\alpha n\:)x^{n}$ that always converges when $|x|<1$. Convergence of the series at the endpoints, $x=\pm 1$,…
George Andrews and Peter Paule have recently conjectured an infinite family of congruences modulo powers of 3 for the 2-elongated plane partition function $d_2(n)$. This congruence family appears difficult to prove by classical methods. We…
We establish limit laws for the distribution in small intervals of the roots of the quadratic congruence $\mu^2 \equiv D \bmod m$, with $D > 0$ square-free and $D\not\equiv 1 \bmod 4$. This is achieved by translating the problem to…
The problem of efficiently characterizing degree sequences of simple hypergraphs is a fundamental long-standing open problem in Graph Theory. Several results are known for restricted versions of this problem. This paper adds to the list of…
We prove that the bounded and bounded below derived categories of (all) modules over the dual numbers have strongly unique (dg) enhancements. To this end we relate those categories to the category of sequences of vector spaces, which allows…
We discuss algorithms for arithmetic properties of hypergeometric functions. Most notably, we are able to compute the p-adic valuation of a hypergeometric function on any disk of radius smaller than the p-adic radius of convergence. This we…
The $d$-dimensional hypercube graph $Q_d$ has as vertices all subsets of $\{1,\ldots,d\}$, and an edge between any two sets that differ in a single element. The Ruskey-Savage conjecture asserts that every matching of $Q_d$, $d\ge 2$, can be…
We obtain new recurrence relations, an explicit formula, and convolution identities for higher order geometric polynomials. These relations generalize known results for geometric polynomials, and lead to congruences for higher order…
We give elementary proofs for the Apagodu-Zeilberger-Stanton-Amdeberhan-Tauraso congruences $$\sum\limits_{n=0}^{p-1}\dbinom{2n}{n} \equiv\eta_{p}\mod p^{2},$$ $$\sum\limits_{n=0}^{rp-1}\dbinom{2n}{n}…
The parametrization theorem is derived in a flat nD pseudo-complex affine space. The pseudo-complex hyperbolic space accomodates n-number of uncompactified time-like extra dimensions with sugnature (s,r), where s and r are the numbers of…
Let $p$ be a prime. In this short note we study some families of super congruences involving the following alternating sums \begin{equation*} \sum_{\substack{j_1+j_2+\cdots+j_n=2 p^r p\nmid j_1 j_2 \cdots j_n}}…
The Generalized Lax Conjecture asks whether every hyperbolicity cone is a section of a semidefinite cone of sufficiently high dimension. We prove that the space of hyperbolicity cones of hyperbolic polynomials of degree $d$ in $n$ variables…
We prove an interesting fact describing the location of the roots of the generating polynomials of the numbers of derangements of length $n$, counted by their number of cycles. We then use this result to prove that if $k$ is the number of…
We review the general gauged N=2 supergravity coupled to an arbitrary number of vector multiplets and hypermultiplets. We consider two different models where N=2 supersymmetry is broken to N=1 spontaneously, one has a U(1) vector multiplet…
Dynamical realizations of the most general N=4 superconformal group in one dimension D(2,1;a) are reconsidered from the perspective of the R-symmetry subgroup SU(2). It is shown that any realization of the R-symmetry subalgebra in some…
We use the superspace method of hep-th/0211017 to prove the matrix model conjecture for N=1 USp(N) and SO(N) gauge theories in four dimensions. We derive the prescription to relate the matrix model to the field theory computations. We…
