This is an extended (factor 2.5) version of arXiv:math/0601371 and arXiv:0808.3486. We present new results in the theory of the classical $\theta$-functions of Jacobi: series expansions and defining ordinary differential equations (\odes).…
Let $p>5$ be a prime. We prove congruences modulo $p^{3-d}$ for sums of the general form $\sum_{k=0}^{(p-3)/2}\binom{2k}{k}t^k/(2k+1)^{d+1}$ and $\sum_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\binom{2k}{k}t^k/k^d$ with $d=0,1$. We also consider the special case…
In this paper, we use basic asymptotic analysis to establish some uniform asymptotic formulas for the Fourier coefficients of the inverse of Jacobi theta functions. In particular, we answer and improve some problems suggested and…
We use precise asymptotic expansions for Jacobi functions $\phi^{(\alpha,\beta)}_\lambda$ parameters $\alpha$, $\beta$ satisfying $\alpha>1/2$, $\alpha>\beta>-1/2$, to generalizing classical H\"ormander-type multiplier theorem for the…
We construct harmonic weak Maass forms that map to cusp forms of weight $k\geq 2$ with rational coefficients under the $\xi$-operator. This generalizes work of the first author, Griffin, Ono, and Rolen, who constructed distinguished…
For an algebraic variety $X$ of dimension $d$ with totally degenerate reduction over a $p$-adic field (definition recalled below) and an integer $i$ with $1\leq i\leq d$, we define a rigid analytic torus $J^i(X)$ together with an…
Let K/Q be Galois and let eta in K* be such that the multiplicative Z[G]-module generated by eta is of Z-rank n.We define the local theta-regulators Delta\_p^theta(eta) in F\_p for the Q\_p-irreducible characters theta of G=Gal(K/Q). Let…
Previous work by the authors (this journal, \vol{60} (2008), 1009-1044) produced equations that hold on certain loci of the Jacobian of a cyclic $C_{rs}$ curve. A curve of this type generalizes elliptic curves, and the equations in question…
Our results concern analytic functions on the open unit $p$-adic poly-disc in $\mathbb{C}^n_p$ centered at the multiplicative unit and we prove that such functions only vanish at finitely many $n$-tuples of roots of unity…
We establish a topological criterion for connection between reducibility to constant rotations and dual localization, for the general family of analytic quasiperiodic Jacobi operators. As a corollary, we obtain the sharp arithmetic phase…
In this paper we study arithmetic properties of some permanents, many of which involve trigonometric functions. For any primitive $n$-th root $\zeta$ of unity, we obtain closed formulas for the permanents…
The multi-indexed Jacobi polynomials are the main part of the eigenfunctions of exactly solvable quantum mechanical systems obtained by certain deformations of the P\"oschl-Teller potential (Odake-Sasaki). By fine-tuning the parameter(s) of…
Suppose that $p$ is an odd prime and $\genfrac{(}{)}{}{}{\cdot}{p}$ denotes the Legendre symbol modulo $p$. If $p$ is has the form $p= n^2+1$ then one easily verifies that $\genfrac{(}{)}{}{}{a}{p} = \genfrac{(}{)}{}{}{-a}{p}$ for all $a\in…
The theta cycle of a modular form modulo a prime $p\geq 5$ is well understood. By contrast, the theta cycle modulo a power of $p$ is still mysterious and experimentally erratic. Here we completely determine the theta cycle of a weight $k <…
Jacobi-Forms can be decomposed as a linear combination of Thetafunctions with modular forms as coefficients. It is shown that the space of these coefficient modular forms of Fourier-Jacobi-Forms, which come from Siegel cusp forms, has full…
The Kronecker theta function is a quotient of the Jacobi theta functions, which is also a special case of Ramanujan's $_1\psi_1$ summation. Using the Kronecker theta function as building blocks, we prove a decomposition theorem for theta…
In a private communication, K. Ono conjectured that any mock theta function of weight 1/2 or 3/2 can be congruent modulo a prime $p$ to a weakly holomorphic modular form for just a few values of $p$. In this paper we describe when such a…
For positive integers $m$ we consider the theta functions $f_m(z):=\sum_{mk+1\text{ square }}q^k$. Due to classical identities of Jacobi, it is known that $$f_4\equiv f_6f_{12}\pmod 2.$$ Here we prove that the only triples $(a,b,c)$ for…
The polynomials $d_n(x)$ are defined by \begin{align*} d_n(x) &= \sum_{k=0}^n{n\choose k}{x\choose k}2^k. \end{align*} We prove that, for any prime $p$, the following congruences hold modulo $p$: \begin{align*}…
The classical Poincar\'e formula relates the rational homology classes of tautological cycles on a Jacobian to powers of the class of Riemann theta divisor. We prove a tropical analogue of this formula. Along the way, we prove several…
