We formulate rational conformal field theory in terms of a symmetric special Frobenius algebra A and its representations. A is an algebra in the modular tensor category of Moore-Seiberg data of the underlying chiral CFT. The multiplication…
In this paper, we use the Lambert series generating function for Euler's totient function to introduce a new identity for the number of $1$'s in the partitions of $n$. A new expansion for Euler's partition function $p(n)$ is derived in this…

We compute the exact thermal partition functions of a massive scalar field on flat spacetime backgrounds of the form $\mathbb R^{d-q}\times \mathbb T^{q+1}$ and show that they possess an ${\rm SL}(q+1,\mathbb Z)$ symmetry. Non-trivial…

We show that the solitonic contribution of compactified strings corresponds to the quantum statistical partition function of a free particle living on higher dimensional spaces. In the simplest case of a compactification in a circle, the…
We present relations between Hirota-type bilinear operators, scalar products on spaces of symmetric functions and integrals defining matrix model partition functions. Using the fermionic Fock space representation, a proof of the expansion…

By work of Bringmann, Ono, and Rhoades it is known that the generating function of the $M_2$-rank of partitions without repeated odd parts is the so-called holomorphic part of a certain harmonic Maass form. Here we improve the standing of…
We show that for supersingular prime p the image of a unique meromorphic function G_p on X_0(p) (of degree two, with polar divisor {[0]_0,[\infty]_0}) under a certain Hecke operator is equal to j(\tau) (up to some additional constant). This…
Motivated by string theory connection, a covariant procedure for perturbative calculation of the partition function of the two-dimensional generalized $\sigma$-model is considered. The importance of a consistent regularization of the…
The denominator formula for the Monster Lie algebra is the product expansion for the modular function $j(z)-j(\tau)$ given in terms of the Hecke system of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb Z)$-modular functions $j_n(\tau)$. It is prominent in…
The recursion relations of branching coefficients $k_{\xi}^{(\mu)}$ for a module $L_{\frak{g}\downarrow \frak{h}}^{\mu}$ reduced to a Cartan subalgebra $\frak{h}$ are transformed in order to place the recursion shifts $\gamma \in…
We argued in [Proc. Sympos. Pure Math., Vol. 103, American Mathematical Society, Providence, RI, 2021, 1-66, arXiv:1912.06504] that, when a certain sub-exponential growth property holds, the Donaldson-Thomas invariants of a 3-Calabi-Yau…
A new characterization of harmonic functions is obtained. It is based on quadrature identities involving mean values over annular domains and over concentric spheres lying within these domains or on their boundaries. The analogous result…
Partition functions of some two-dimensional statistical models can be represented by means of Grassmann integrals over loops living on two-dimensional torus. It is shown that those Grassmann integrals are topological invariants, which…

We compute the partition function for the $N=1$ spinning particle, including pictures and the large Hilbert space, and show that it counts the dimension of the BRST cohomology in two- and four-dimensional target space. We also construct a…
