For a positive integer k and an arbitrary integer h, the Dedekind sum s(h,k) was first studied by Dedekind because of the prominent role it plays in the transformation theory of the Dedekind eta-function, which is a modular form of weight…
The Dirichlet series associated to the eta-product $\eta(7\tau)^7/\eta(\tau)$ decomposes uniquely into the difference of two L-functions with Euler products. This expression gives a new proof of the positivity of the Fourier coefficients of…
Let eta(z) be the Dedekind eta function. Newman studied the modularity of eta-quotients, giving necessary and sufficient conditions for a function of the form \prod_{0 < m | N} eta(mz)^{r_m} to be a (weakly) holomorphic modular form of…
The rare decays $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\ell^+\ell^-$, $\ell\in\{e,\mu\}$, are highly suppressed in the Standard Model, both by their chirality structure and the required loop attaching the lepton line to the $\eta^{(\prime)}\to\gamma^*\gamma^*$…
We consider a special subsequence of the Fourier coefficients of powers of the Dedekind $\eta$-function, analogous to the sequence $\delta_\ell := 24^{-1} \pmod{\ell}$ on which exceptional congruences of the partition function are…
We prove the transformation laws of the four Jacobi theta functions using Gordon's proof for the transformation law of the Dedekind eta function.
Suppose that $\ell \geq 5$ is prime. For a positive integer $N$ with $4 \mid N$, previous works studied properties of half-integral weight modular forms on $\Gamma_0(N)$ which are supported on finitely many square classes modulo $\ell$, in…
Let $q=e^{2\pi i\tau}$, $\Im\tau>0$, $x=e^{2\pi i\xi}\in\CC$ and $(x;q)_\infty=\prod_{n\ge 0}(1-xq^n)$. Let $(q,x)\mapsto(q^*,\iota_q x)$ be the classical modular substitution given by $q^*=e^{-2\pi i/\tau}$ and $\iota_q x=e^{2\pi…
We compute the eta function $\eta(s)$ and its corresponding $\eta$-invariant for the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer operator $\mathcal{D}$ acting on an orientable compact flat manifold of dimension $n =4h-1$, $h\ge 1$, and holonomy group $F\simeq…
In this short paper, we find the transformation formula for the theta series under the action of the Jacobi modular group on the Siegel-Jacobi space. This formula generalizes the formula (5.1) obtained by Mumford in his book[p.189, Tata…
The classical Dedekind sums appear in the transformation behavior of the logarithm of the Dedekind eta-function under substitutions from the modular group. The Dedekind sums and their generalizations are defined in terms of Bernoulli…
An integral power series is called lacunary modulo $M$ if almost all of its coefficients are divisible by $M$. Motivated by the parity problem for the partition function, $p(n)$, Gordon and Ono studied the generating functions for…
Let $E(z,s)$ be the non-holomorphic Eisenstein series for the modular group $SL(2,{\mathbb Z})$. The classical Kronecker limit formula shows that the second term in the Laurent expansion at $s=1$ of $E(z,s)$ is essentially the logarithm of…
For functions $f: \mathcal{P}\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ on partitions, Bloch and Okounkov defined a power series $\langle f\rangle_q$ that is the "weighted average" of $f$. As Fourier series in $q=e^{2\pi i z}$, such $q$-brackets generate the…
Let $D\equiv 1\bmod{4}$ be a fundamental discriminant of a real quadratic field. We construct an analogue of the classical Dedekind eta function for the Hecke group $H(\sqrt{D})$. This gives rise to a new family of holomorphic modular…
Let $\varphi(\tau)=\eta((\tau+1)/2)^2/\sqrt{2\pi}e^\frac{\pi i}{4}\eta(\tau+1)$ where $\eta(\tau)$ is the Dedekind eta-function. We show that if $\tau_0$ is an imaginary quadratic number with $\mathrm{Im}(\tau_0)>0$ and $m$ is an odd…
Dedekind sums occur in the transformation behaviour of the logarithm of the Dedekind eta-function under substitutions from the modular group. In 1892, Dedekind showed a reciprocity relation for the Dedekind sums. Apostol generalized…
We realize some powers of Dedekind $\eta$-function as traces on quantum coordinate algebras.
In this paper we introduce a generalization of theta series in the context of the slice monogenic function theory in $\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ where me make use of the so-called $*$-exponential function in a hypercomplex variable. Together with…
It is known that all modular forms on $SL_2(Z)$ can be expressed as a rational function in $\eta(z)$, $\eta(2z)$ and $\eta(4z)$. By using a theorem by Gordon, Hughes, and Newman, and calculating the order of vanishing, we can compute the…
