Building on work of Hardy and Ramanujan, Rademacher proved a well-known formula for the values of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$. More recently, Bruinier and Ono obtained an algebraic formula for these values. Here we study the…

In terms of Sear's transformation formula for $_4\phi_3$-series, we give new proofs of a summation formula for ${_4\phi_3}$-series due to Andrews [2] and another summation formula for${_4\phi_3}$-series conjectured in the same paper.…

Recently R.Khan and M.Young proved a mean Lindel\"{o}f estimate on the second moment of central values of Maass form symmetric-square $L$-function on the interval $T<|t_j|<T+T^{1/5+\epsilon}$, where $t_j$ is a spectral parameter of the…

In this paper, we use regularized theta liftings to construct weak Maass forms weight 1/2 as lifts of weak Maass forms of weight 0. As a special case we give a new proof of some of recent results of Duke, Toth and Imamoglu on cycle…

Let $x\ge 2$. The $\psi$-form of the prime number theorem is $\psi(x) =\sum\sb{n \le x}\Lambda(n) =x +O\bigl(x\sp{1-H(x)} \log\sp{2} x\big)$, where $H(x)$ is a certain function of $x$ with $0< H(x) \le \tfrac{1}{2}$. Tur\'an proved in 1950…

We prove that when $f$ is a Rademacher random multiplicative function for any $\epsilon>0$, then $\sum_{n \leqslant x}\frac{f(n)}{\sqrt{n}} \ll (\log\log(x))^{3/4+\epsilon}$ for almost all $f$. We also show that there exist arbitrarily…

We prove that if $f(n)$ is a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function, there almost surely exist arbitrarily large values of $x$ for which $|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)| \geq \sqrt{x} (\log\log x)^{1/4+o(1)}$. This is the first such…

It was recently shown that $q\omega(q)$, where $\omega(q)$ is one of the third order mock theta functions, is the generating function of $p_{\omega}(n)$, the number of partitions of a positive integer $n$ such that all odd parts are less…

In this article, we refine a result of Andrews and Newman, that is, the sum of minimal excludants over all the partitions of a number $n$ equals the number of partitions of $n$ into distinct parts with two colors. As a consequence, we find…

The study of partitions with parts separated by parity was initiated by Andrews in connection with Ramanujan's mock theta functions, and his variations on this theme have produced generating functions with a large variety of different…

Let $f$ be a newform of prime level $p$ with any central character $\chi\, (\bmod\, p)$, and let $g$ be a fixed cusp form or Eisenstein series for $\hbox{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$. We prove the subconvexity bound: for any $\varepsilon>0$,…

Let $\lambda(m)$ be the $m$th coefficient of a modular form $f(z)=\sum_{m\geq 1} \lambda(m)q^m$ of weight $k\geq 4$, let $p^n$ be a prime power, and let $\varepsilon>0$ be a small number. An approximate of the Atkin-Serre conjecture on the…

Let $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a(n)e^{2\pi i nz}\in S_k^{new}(\Gamma_0(N))$ be a newform of even weight $k\geq2$ that does not have complex multiplication. Then $a(n)\in\mathbb{R}$ for all $n$, so for any prime $p$, there exists…

Building on the earlier works of Gadiyar and Padma, the main result of this paper is to prove: \begin{equation} \lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{N} \sum_{n=1}^{N} \frac{\phi(n) \Lambda\left(n \right)}{n} \frac{\phi(n+h) \Lambda\left(n…

Let $s$ be the sum-of-digits function in base $2$, which returns the number of $\mathtt 1$s in the base-2 expansion of a nonnegative integer. For a nonnegative integer $t$, define the asymptotic density \[ c_t=\lim_{N\rightarrow \infty}…

In this paper, we study (random) sequences of pseudo s-th powers, as introduced by Erd\"os and R\'enyi in 1960. In 1975, Goguel proved that such a sequence is almost surely not an asymptotic basis of order s. Our first result asserts that…

Motivated by recent work of George Andrews and Mircea Merca on the expansion of the quotient of the truncation of Euler's pentagonal number series by the complete series, we provide similar expansion results for averages involving…

Posterior tempering reduces the influence of the likelihood in the calculation of the posterior by raising the likelihood to a fractional power $\alpha$. The resulting power posterior - also known as an $\alpha$-posterior or fractional…

In this thesis we show that the partial sums of the Maclaurin series for a certain class of entire functions possess scaling limits in various directions in the complex plane. In doing so we obtain information about the zeros of the partial…

In 1935, Erd\H{o}s proved that the sums $f_k=\sum_n 1/(n\log n)$, over integers $n$ with exactly $k$ prime factors, are bounded by an absolute constant, and in 1993 Zhang proved that $f_k$ is maximized by the prime sum $f_1=\sum_p 1/(p\log…
