Let f be a newform of weight two and composite level N. We show how to compute weight 3/2 modular forms "associated" to f whose Fourier coefficients are related to the central values of quadratic twists (real and imaginary) of f. We will…

We prove recursive formulas for the Taylor coefficients of cusp forms, such as Ramanujan's Delta function, at points in the upper half-plane. This allows us to show the non-vanishing of all Taylor coefficients of Delta at CM points of small…

We prove the following. Let $\mu_{1},\ldots,\mu_{n}$ be Borel probability measures on $[-1,1]$ such that $\mu_{j}$ has finite $s_j$-energy for certain indices $s_{j} \in (0,1]$ with $s_{1} + \ldots + s_{n} > 1$. Then, the multiplicative…

In this paper we treat the Fourier coefficients of Siegel Eisenstein series of level $p$ with trivial or quadratic character, for an odd prime $p$. The Euler $p$-factor of the Fourier coefficient is called the ramified Siegel series. First…

Let $f\in S_{k+1/2}(N,\chi)$ be a Hecke eigenform of half integral weight $k+1/2\,(k\geq 2)$ and the real nebentypus $\chi=\pm 1$ where the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$ are reals. We prove that the sequence…

MacMahon's partition functions and their extensions provide equations that identify prime numbers as solutions. These results depend on the theory of (mixed weight) quasimodular forms on $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. Two of the authors, along with…

For rational $\alpha$, the fractional partition functions $p_\alpha(n)$ are given by the coefficients of the generating function $(q;q)^\alpha_\infty$. When $\alpha=-1$, one obtains the usual partition function. Congruences of the form…

In this paper, we prove that, for an integer $r$ with $(r,6)=1$ and $0<r<24$ and a nonnegative even integer $s$, the set {\eta(24\tau)^rf(24\tau):f(\tau)\in M_s(1)} is isomorphic to…

We give a parametrization of the possible Serre invariants $(N,k,\nu)$ of modular mod $\ell$ Galois representations of the exceptional types $A_4$, $S_4$, $A_5$, in terms of local data attached to the fields cut out by the associated…

We introduce a natural definition for sums of the form \[ \sum_{\nu=1}^x f(\nu) \] when the number of terms x is a rather arbitrary real or even complex number. The resulting theory includes the known interpolation of the factorial by the…

Let $A_f(1,n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(3)$ Maass cusp form $f$ and let $a_g(n)$ be the normalized Fourier coefficients of a $GL(2)$ cusp form $g$. Let $\lambda(n)$ be either $A_f(1,n)$ or the triple divisor function…

In this semi-expository article, we discuss about the non-vanishing of the Fourier coefficients of primitive forms. Also, we shall make a note of a discrepancy in the statement of [KRW07, Lemma 2.2].

We study divisibility properties of certain sums and alternating sums involving binomial coefficients and powers of integers. For example, we prove that for all positive integers $n_1,..., n_m$, $n_{m+1}=n_1$, and any nonnegative integer…

A representation of divisor function $\tau(n)\equiv \sigma_{0}(n)$ by means of logarithmic residue of a function of complex variable is suggested. This representation may be useful theoretical instrument for further investigations of…

In this paper, we study non-trivial upper bounds for the sum $\sum \limits_{n \in S} |\lambda_f(n)|$ where $f$ is a normalized Maass eigencusp form for the full modular group, $\lambda_f(n)$ is the $n$th normalized Fourier coefficient of…

In this paper we apply results from the theory of congruences of modular forms (control of reducible primes, level-lowering), the modularity of elliptic curves and Q-curves, and a couple of Frey curves of Fermat-Goldbach type, to show the…

A pre-modular form $Z_n(\sigma; \tau)$ of weight $\tfrac{1}{2} n(n + 1)$ is introduced for each $n \in \Bbb N$, where $(\sigma, \tau) \in \Bbb C \times \Bbb H$, such that for $E_\tau = \Bbb C/(\Bbb Z + \Bbb Z \tau)$, every non-trivial zero…

We prove that a Siegel cusp form of degree 2 for the full modular group is determined by its set of Fourier coefficients a(S) with 4 det(S) ranging over odd squarefree integers. As a key step to our result, we also prove that a classical…
