We obtain a nontrivial upper bound for almost all elements of the sequences of real numbers which are multiplicative and at the prime indices are distributed according to the Sato--Tate density. Examples of such sequences come from…
In 1947, Lehmer conjectured that the Ramanujan \tau-function \tau(m) is non-vanishing for all positive integers m, where \tau(m) are the Fourier coefficients of the cusp form \Delta of weight 12. It is known that Lehmer's conjecture can be…
The aim of this article is to investigate how various Riemann Hypotheses would follow only from properties of the prime numbers. To this end, we consider two classes of $L$-functions, namely, non-principal Dirichlet and those based on cusp…
We derive an asymptotic formula for the divisor function $\tau(k)$ in an arithmetic progression $k\equiv a(\bmod \ q)$, uniformly for $q\leq X^{\Delta_{n,l}}$ with $(q,a)=1$. The parameter $\Delta_{n,l}$ is defined as $$…
We study some arithmetic properties of the Ramanujan function $\tau(n)$, such as the largest prime divisor $P(\tau(n))$ and the number of distinct prime divisors $\omega(\tau(n))$ of $\tau(n)$ for various sequences of $n$. In particular, we…
Utilizing inverse Mellin transform of the symmetric square $L$-function attached to Ramanujan tau function, Hafner and Stopple proved a conjecture of Zagier, which states that the constant term of the automorphic function…
The possible values of the nth Fourier coefficients a(n) of some cusp forms f(z) of weight k => 12 are studied in this article. In particular, the values of the tau function are investigated in some details, and proved that tau(p) =! 0 for…
We study the average value of the divisor function $\tau(n)$ for $n\le x$ with $n \equiv a \bmod q$. The divisor function is known to be evenly distributed over arithmetic progressions for all $q$ that are a little smaller than $x^{2/3}$.…
The Shub-Smale Tau Conjecture is a hypothesis relating the number of integral roots of a polynomial f in one variable and the Straight-Line Program (SLP) complexity of f. A consequence of the truth of this conjecture is that, for the…
We propose an improved algorithm for computing mod $\ell$ Galois representations associated to a cusp form $f$ of level one. The proposed method allows us to explicitly compute the case with $\ell=29$ and $f$ of weight $k=16$, and the cases…
We prove an explicit Chebotarev variant of the Brun--Titchmarsh theorem. This leads to explicit versions of the best-known unconditional upper bounds toward conjectures of Lang and Trotter for the coefficients of holomorphic cuspidal…
Let $n>1$ be an odd integer. For any primitive $n$-th root $\zeta$ of unity in the complex field. Via the Engenvector-eigenvalue Identity, we show that $$\sum_{\tau\in…
We denote functions mapping n to the Fourier coefficient of q^n in the expansion of a cusp form as Ramanujan functions. We empirically study the eigenvalues of determinants that represent values of these Ramanujan functions. In some cases,…
We present an infinite family of identities that represent Ramanujan's tau function in terms of convolution sums of twisted divisor functions. Our method involves explicitly constructing non-vanishing level $1$ cusp forms from modular forms…
Let $\tau$ denote the divisor function, and $f$ be any multiplicative function that satisfies some mild hypotheses. We establish the asymptotic formula or non-trivial upper bound for the shifted convolution sum $\sum_{n \leq…
A criterion for Lehmer's conjecture in terms of the spherical designs held in the shells of the lattice $E_8$ was derived by de La Harpe, Pache and Venkov circa 2005. We check that this criterion is satisfied by combining spherical designs,…
Let \tau(.) be the Ramanujan \tau-function, and let k be a positive integer such that \tau(n) is not 0 for n=1,...,[k/2]. (This is known to be true for k < 10^{23}, and, conjecturally, for all k.) Further, let s be a permutation of the set…
A celebrated theorem of Delange gives a sufficient condition for an arithmetic function to be the sum of the associated Ramanujan expansion with the coefficients provided by a previous result of Wintner. By applying the Delange theorem to…
In this paper, we prove: Let A be a nonnegative primitive tensor with order m and dimension n. Then its primitive degree R(A)\leq (n-1)^2+1, and the upper bound is sharp. This confirms a conjecture of Shao [7].
For $j=1,2$, let $f_j(z) = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_{j}(n) e^{2\pi i nz}$ be a holomorphic, non-CM cuspidal newform of even weight $k_j \ge 2$ with trivial nebentypus. For each prime $p$, let $\theta_{j}(p)\in[0,\pi]$ be the angle such that…
