In 1967, Andrews found a combinatorial generalization of the G\"ollnitz-Gordon theorem, which can be called the Andrews-G\"ollnitz-Gordon theorem. In 1980, Bressoud derived a multisum Rogers-Ramanujan-type identity, which can be considered…

We give an adelic treatment of the Kuznetsov trace formula as a relative trace formula on GL(2) over Q. The result is a variant which incorporates a Hecke eigenvalue in addition to two Fourier coefficients on the spectral side. We include a…

In 1995 Magnus posed a conjecture about the asymptotics of the recurrence coefficients of orthogonal polynomials with respect to the weights on [-1,1] of the form $$ (1-x)^\alpha (1+x)^\beta |x_0 - x|^\gamma \times a jump at x_0, $$ with…

The identity between expressions for the coefficient functions of the Bjorken and Ellis-Jaffe sum rules is derived in the conformal invariant limit of massless U(1) theory, namely in the perturbative quenched QED model, and in the same…

We consider the efficient inference of finite dimensional parameters arising in the context of inverse problems. Our setup is the observation of a transformation of an unknown infinite dimensional signal $f$ corrupted by statistical noise,…

An asymptotic formula with a square root error term is obtained for the number of elements with given trace and norm in a finite semisimple algebra over a finite field. This extends previous results from finite etale algebras (commutative…

By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…

We establish an explicit link between depth-3 formulas and one-sided approximation by depth-2 formulas, which were previously studied independently. Specifically, we show that the minimum size of depth-3 formulas is (up to a factor of n)…

Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer, and let $f\in S_k(N)$ be a primitive cusp form given by the Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}}e(nz)$. We consider the partial sum $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq…

We prove that for sets $A, B, C \subset \mathbb{F}_p$ with $|A|=|B|=|C| \leq \sqrt{p}$ and a fixed $0 \neq d \in \mathbb{F}_p$ holds $$ \max(|AB|, |(A+d)C|) \gg|A|^{1+1/26}. $$ In particular, $$ |A(A+1)| \gg |A|^{1 + 1/26} $$ and $$…

There have been a plethora of investigations carried out in studying inequalities for the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic modular forms, for example, on the partition function. Recently, Bringmann, Kane, Rolen, and Tripp studied…

Let $Z(t)=\chi^{-1/2}(1/2+it)\zeta(1/2+it)=e^{i\theta(t)}\zeta(1/2+it)$ be Hardy's function and $g(n)$ be the $n$-th Gram points defined by $\theta(g(n))=\pi n$. Titchmarsh proved that $\sum_{n \leq N} Z(g(2n)) =2N+O(N^{3/4}\log^{3/4}N) $…

Erd\H{o}s proved that $\mathcal{F}(A) := \sum_{a \in A}\frac{1}{a\log a}$ converges for any primitive set of integers $A$ and later conjectured this sum is maximized when $A$ is the set of primes. Banks and Martin further conjectured that…

We study the asymptotic behavior of the fractional Allen--Cahn energy functional in bounded domains with prescribed Dirichlet boundary conditions. When the fractional power $s \in (0,\frac12)$, we establish establish the first-order…

Using partition generating function techniques, we prove $q$-series analogues of a formula of Frobenius generalizing Abel's convergence theorem for complex power series. Frobenius' result states that for $|q|<1$, $\lim_{q\to…

Towards confirming Sun's conjecture on the strict log-concavity of combinatorial sequence involving the n$th$ Bernoulli number, Chen, Guo and Wang proposed a conjecture about the log-concavity of the function…

Ramanujan derived a sequence of even weight $2n$ quasimodular forms $U_{2n}(q)$ from derivatives of Jacobi's weight $3/2$ theta function. Using the generating function for this sequence, one can construct sequences of quasimodular forms of…

The partition function on the three-sphere of many supersymmetric Chern-Simons-matter theories reduces, by localization, to a matrix model. We develop a new method to study these models in the M-theory limit, but at all orders in the 1/N…

Let $f:\Z/q\Z\rightarrow\Z$ be such that $f(a)=\pm 1$ for $1\le a<q$, and $f(q)=0$. Then Erd\"os conjectured that $\sum_{n\ge1}\frac{f(n)}{n} \ne 0$. For $q$ even, this is trivially true. If $q\equiv 3$ ( mod $4$), Murty and Saradha proved…
