In the present paper we prove decomposition formulae for the braided symmetric powers of simple modules over the quantized enveloping algebra $U_q(sl_2)$; natural quantum analogues of the classical symmetric powers of a module over a…

We prove the divisibility conjecture on sums of even powers of $q$-binomial coefficients, which was recently proposed by Guo, Schlosser and Zudilin. Our proof relies on two $q$-harmonic series congruences due to Shi and Pan.

It is shown that the continuous q-Hermite polynomials for q a root of unity have simple transformation properties with respect to the classical Fourier transform. This result is then used to construct q-extended eigenvectors of the finite…

We derive a number of summation and transformation formulas for elliptic hypergeometric series on the root systems A_n, C_n and D_n. In the special cases of classical and q-series, our approach leads to new elementary proofs of the…

This article gives a brief introduction to $q$-special functions, i.e., $q$-analogues of the classical special functions. Here $q$ is a deformation parameter, usually $0<q<1$, where $q=1$ is the classical case. The main topics to be treated…

A closed formula of the universal part of supersymmetric R\'enyi entropy $S_q$ for six-dimensional $(1,0)$ superconformal theories is proposed. Within our arguments, $S_q$ across a spherical entangling surface is a cubic polynomial of…

We give two congruence properties of Hermitian modular forms of degree 2 over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-1})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$. The one is a congruence criterion for Hermitian modular forms which is generalization of Sturm's theorem.…

A family of LDPC codes, called LU(3,q) codes, has been constructed from q-regular bipartite graphs. Recently, P. Sin and Q. Xiang determined the dimensions of these codes in the case that q is a power of an odd prime. They also obtained a…

In this paper, we introduce two types of general classes of even and odd $q$-Lidstone polynomial sequences. We prove essential properties related to them like the matrix and determinate form representation, the generating function,…

For a prime power \( q \) and a positive integer \( n \), a subspace \( U \subseteq \mathbb{F}_q^n \) is called cyclically covering if the union of all its cyclic shifts covers the whole space \( \mathbb{F}_q^n \). Let \( h_q(n) \) denote…

In this paper, we prove some supercongruences concerning truncated hypergeometric series. For example, we show that for any prime $p>3$ and positive integer $r$, $$ \sum_{k=0}^{p^r-1}(3k+1)\frac{(\frac12)_k^3}{(1)_k^3}4^k\equiv…

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…

In this paper, we prove that the smallest even sets in ${\rm PG}(n,q)$, i.e. sets that intersect every line in an even number of points, are cylinders with a hyperoval as base. This fits into a more general study of dual projective…

We prove multiplicative congruences mod $2^{12}$ for George Andrews's partition function, $\overline{\mathcal{EO}}(n)$, the number of partitions of $n$ in which every even part is less than each odd part and only the largest even part…

Suppose that $p$ is an odd prime and $m$ is an integer not divisible by $p$. Sun and Tauraso [Adv. in Appl. Math., 45(2010), 125--148] gave $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/m^k$ and $\sum_{k=0}^{n-1}\binom{2k}{k+d}/(km^k)$ modulo $p$ for…

We discuss $q$-analogues of the classical congruence $\binom{ap}{bp}\equiv\binom{a}{b}\pmod{p^3}$, valid for primes $p>3$, as well as its generalisations. In particular, we prove related congruences for ($q$-analogues of) integral factorial…

We present new constructions of quasi-cyclic (QC) and generalized quasi-cyclic (GQC) codes from algebraic curves. Unlike previous approaches based on elliptic curves, our method applies to curves that are Kummer extensions of the rational…

We remark on pseudo-elliptic integrals and on exceptional function fields, namely function fields defined over an infinite base field but nonetheless containing non-trivial units. Our emphasis is on some elementary criteria that must be…

The enhanced hypercube $Q_{n,k}$ is a variant of the hypercube $Q_n$. We investigate all the lengths of cycles that an edge of the enhanced hypercube lies on. It is proved that every edge of $Q_{n,k}$ lies on a cycle of every even length…

Recently Gordon and McIntosh introduced the third order mock theta function $\xi(q)$ defined by $$ \xi(q)=1+2\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{q^{6n^2-6n+1}}{(q;q^6)_{n}(q^5;q^6)_{n}}. $$ Our goal in this paper is to study arithmetic properties of…
