In this paper we prove a number of theorems that determine the extent to which the signs of the Hecke eigenvalues of an Eisenstein newform determine the newform. We address this problem broadly and provide theorems of both individual and…

We exploit some properties of the Hurwitz zeta function $\zeta (n,x)$ in order to study sums of the form $\frac{1}{\pi ^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}1/(jk+l)^{n}$ and $\frac{1}{\pi ^{n}}\sum_{j=-\infty}^{\infty}(-1)^{j}/(jk+l)^{n}$ for $%…

Let $k$ be an even integer and $S_k$ be the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ on $\SL_2(\ZZ)$. Let $S = \oplus_{k\in 2\ZZ} S_k$. For $f, g\in S$, we let $R(f, g) = \{ (a_f(p), a_g(p)) \in \mathbb{P}^1(\CC)\ |\ \text{$p$ is a prime} \}$ be…

A real number $x$ is considered normal in an integer base $b \geq 2$ if its digit expansion in this base is ``equitable'', ensuring that for each $k \geq 1$, every ordered sequence of $k$ digits from $\{0, 1, \ldots, b-1\}$ occurs in the…

This paper treats the problem of determining conditions for the Fourier coefficients of a Maass-Hecke newform at cusps other than infinity to be multiplicative. To be precise, the Fourier coefficients are defined using a choice of matrix in…

Let f be a classical holomorphic newform of level q and even weight k. We show that the pushforward to the full level modular curve of the mass of f equidistributes as qk -> infinity. This generalizes known results in the case that q is…

We say that a normalized modular form is of CM type modulo $\ell$ by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ if its Fourier coefficients $a_p$ are congruent to $0$ modulo a prime $\mathcal L\mid \ell$ for every prime $p$ that is inert in $K$. In…

We prove that every sufficiently large odd integer can be expressed as a sum of one square and fourteen fifth powers, all of primes. In addition, we establish that every sufficiently large even integer can be written as a sum of one square,…

A result of Dieulefait-Wiese proves the existence of modular eigenforms of weight 2 for which the image of every associated residual Galois representation is as large as possible. We generalize this result to eigenforms of general even…

In the past, empirical evidence has been presented that Hilbert series of symplectic quotients of unitary representations obey a certain universal system of infinitely many constraints. Formal series with this property have been called…

Let $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_f(n)e^{2\pi i n z}$ be a non-CM holomorphic cupsidal newform of trivial nebentypus and even integral level $k\geq 2$. Deligne's proof of the Weil conjectures shows that $|a_f(p)|\leq 2p^{\frac{k-1}{2}}$ for…

Lehmer conjectured that Ramanujan's tau-function never vanishes. In a related direction, a folklore conjecture asserts that infinitely many primes arise as absolute values of Ramanujan's tau-function. Recently, Xiong showed that these prime…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $Q$, and $\tau$ an Artin representation over $Q$ that factors through the non-abelian extension $Q(\sqrt[p^n]{m},\mu_{p^n})/Q$, where $p$ is an odd prime and $n,m$ are positive integers. We show that…

To study statistical properties of modular forms, including for instance Sato-Tate like problems, it is essential to have a large number of Fourier coefficients. In this article, we exhibit three bases for the space of modular forms of any…

We provide a simple and new induction based treatment of the problem of distinguishing cusp forms from the growth of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms. Our approach gives the best possible ranges of the weights for this problem, and…

This paper studies the Fourier expansion of Hecke-Maass eigenforms for $GL(2, \mathbb Q)$ of arbitrary weight, level, and character at various cusps. Translating well known results in the theory of adelic automorphic representations into…

We study the equation $(x-4r)^3 + (x-3r)^3 + (x-2r)^3+(x-r)^3 + x^3 + (x+r)^3+(x+2r)^3 + (x+3r)^3 + (x+4r)^3 = y^p$, which is a natural continuation of previous works carried out by A. Arg\'{a}ez-Garc\'{i}a and the fourth author (perfect…

We present a conjecture on the average number of Galois orbits of newforms when fixing the weight and varying the level. This conjecture implies, for instance, that the central L-values (resp. L-derivatives) are nonzero for 100% of even…

We prove that if $F$ is a non-zero (possibly non-cuspidal) vector-valued Siegel modular form of any degree, then it has infinitely many non-zero Fourier coefficients which are indexed by half-integral matrices having odd, square-free (and…

In this note, we study Liouville theorems for the stable and finite Morse index weak solutions of the quasilinear elliptic equation $-\Delta_p u= f(x) F(u) $ in $\mathbb{R}^n$ where $p\ge 2$, $0\le f\in C(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and $F\in…
