In recent years, the congruence $$ \sum_{\substack{i+j+k=p\\ i,j,k>0}} \frac1{ijk} \equiv -2 B_{p-3} \pmod{p}, $$ first discovered by the last author have been generalized by either increasing the number of indices and considering the…
We investigate level $p$ Eisenstein congruences for GSp$_4$, generalisations of level $1$ congruences predicted by Harder. By studying the associated Galois and automorphic representations we see conditions that guarantee the existence of a…
We establish existence theorems for the image of the normalized character map of the $p$-adic Heisenberg algebra $S$ taking values in the algebra of Serre $p$-adic modular forms $M_p$. In particular, we describe the construction of an…
Let $k$ be even. We consider two series $F_k(x)= \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\sigma_{k-1}(n)}{n^{k+1}} \sin(2\pi n x)$ and $G_k(x)= \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{\sigma_{k-1}(n)}{n^{k+1}} \cos(2\pi n x)$, where $\sigma_{k-1}$ is the divisor function.…
We define a family {$\gamma(P)$} of generalized Euler constants indexed by finite sets of primes $P$ and study their distribution. These arise from partial sums of reciprocals of integers not divisible by any prime in $P$. An apparent…
We prove congruences, modulo a power of a prime p, for certain finite sums involving central binomial coefficients $\binom{2k}{k}$.
Recently, Amdeberhan, Sellers, and Singh introduced the notion of a generalized cubic partition function $a_c(n)$ and proved two isolated congruences via modular forms, namely, $a_3(7n+4)\equiv 0\pmod{7}$ and $a_5(11n+10)\equiv 0\pmod{11}$.…
Let $p$ be a prime with $p>3$, and let $a,b$ be two rational $p-$integers. In this paper we present general congruences for $\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\binom ak\binom{-1-a}k\frac p{k+b}\pmod {p^2}$. For $n=0,1,2,\ldots$ let $D_n$ and $b_n$ be Domb…
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 prove general Dwork-type congruences for Hasse--Witt matrices attached to tuples of Laurent polynomials. We apply this result to establishing arithmetic and $p$-adic analytic properties of functions originating from polynomial solutions…
We study the rational coefficients that arise when the Eisenstein series $G_k$ is expressed as a polynomial in $G_4$ and $G_6$. We prove a recent conjecture giving an exact formula for the minimal 2-adic valuation of these coefficients in…
In this paper, we introduce the power-partible reduction for holonomic (or, P-recursive) sequences and apply it to obtain a series of congruences for Ap\'ery numbers $A_k$. In particular, we prove that, for any $r\in\mathbb{N}$, there…
Using Dwork's theory, we prove a broad generalisation of his famous p-adic formal congruences theorem. This enables us to prove certain p-adic congruences for the generalized hypergeometric series with rational parameters; in particular,…
We construct p-adic families of Klingen Eisenstein series and L-functions for cuspforms (not necessarily ordinary) unramified at an odd prime p on definite unitary groups of signature (r, 0) (for any positive integer r) for a quadratic…
Let p be any prime, and let a and n be nonnegative integers. Let $r\in Z$ and $f(x)\in Z[x]$. We establish the congruence $$p^{\deg f}\sum_{k=r(mod p^a)}\binom{n}{k}(-1)^k f((k-r)/p^a) =0 (mod p^{\sum_{i=a}^{\infty}[n/p^i]})$$ (motivated by…
We show that the $p$-adic Siegel Eisenstein series of general degree attached to two kind of number sequences are both linear combinations of genus theta series of level $p$, by applying the theory of mod $p$-power singular forms. As…
In this article, we introduce congruential Euler numbers, which are a further generalization of generalized Euler numbers. We prove the $p$-adic congruences of congruential Euler numbers, which include answers to a conjecture related to…
Based on Garland's work, in this paper we construct the Eisenstein series on the adelic loop groups over a number field, induced from either a cusp form or a quasi-character which is assumed to be unramified. We compute the constant terms,…
We prove that mod-$p$ congruences between polynomials in $\mathbb{Z}_p[X]$ are equivalent to deeper $p$-power congruences between power-sum functions of their roots. This result generalizes to torsion-free $\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}$-algebras modulo…
We show that certain $p$-adic Eisenstein series for quaternionic modular groups of degree 2 become "real" modular forms of level $p$ in almost all cases. To prove this, we introduce a $U(p)$ type operator. We also show that there exists a…
