We study the representation theory of a certain finite group for which Kloosterman sums appear as character values. This leads us to consider a concrete family of commuting hermitian matrices which have Kloosterman sums as eigenvalues.…
We obtain new recurrence relations, an explicit formula, and convolution identities for higher order geometric polynomials. These relations generalize known results for geometric polynomials, and lead to congruences for higher order…
By examining asymptotic behavior of certain infinite basic ($q$-) hypergeometric sums at roots of unity (that is, at a "$q$-microscopic" level) we prove polynomial congruences for their truncations. The latter reduce to non-trivial…
The Jacobian algebra associated to a triangulation of a closed surface $S$ with a collection of marked points $M$ is (weakly) symmetric and tame. We show that for these algebras the Auslander-Reiten translate acts 2-periodical on objects.…
A special family of partitions occurs in two apparently unrelated contexts: the evaluation of 1-dimensional configuration sums of certain RSOS models, and the modular representation theory of symmetric groups or their Hecke algebras $H_m$.…
We discuss some types of congruences on Menger algebras of rank $n$, which are generalizations of the principal left and right congruences on semigroups. We also study congruences admitting various types of cancellations and describe their…
We prove the Ramanujan and Sato-Tate conjectures for Bianchi modular forms of weight at least 2. More generally, we prove these conjectures for all regular algebraic cuspidal automorphic representations of $\mathrm{GL}_2(\mathbf{A}_F)$ of…
We investigate certain Eisenstein congruences, as predicted by Harder, for level p paramodular forms of genus 2. We use algebraic modular forms to generate new evidence for the conjecture. In doing this we see explicit computational…
Let $\Gamma$ be a Bianchi group associated to one of the five Euclidean imaginary quadratic fields. We show that the space of weight $k$ period polynomials for $\Gamma$ is ``dual'' to the space of weight $k$ modular symbols for $\Gamma$,…
In this paper, we study the combinatorics of congruence subgroups of the modular group by generalizing results obtained in the non-modular case. For this, we define a notion of irreducible solutions from which we can build all the…
Let M(q)=\sum c(n) q^n be one of Ramanujan's mock theta functions. We establish the existence of infinitely many linear congruences of the form c(An+B) \equiv 0 (mod \ell^j), where A is a multiple of \ell and an auxiliary prime p. Moreover,…
We establish sufficient conditions, involving Rankin--Cohen (RC) brackets, under which certain combinations of meromorphic quasi-modular forms and their derivatives yield meromorphic modular forms. To achieve this, we adopt an algebraic…
An important problem in quaternionic hyperbolic geometry is to classify ordered $m$-tuples of pairwise distinct points in the closure of quaternionic hyperbolic n-space, $\overline{{\bf H}_\bh^n}$, up to congruence in the holomorphic…
We use methods of the general theory of congruence and *congruence for complex matrices--regularization and cosquares-to determine a unitary congruence canonical form (respectively, a unitary *congruence canonical form) for complex matrices…
In this paper we show how Rank-Crank type PDE's (first found by Atkin and Garvan) occur naturally in the framework of non-holomorphic Jacobiforms and find an infinite family of such differential equations. As an application we show an…
Recently, several mathematicians have investigated various partition functions with the goal of discovering Ramanujan-type congruences. One such function is $\overline{B}_{2^\alpha}(n)$, which represents the number of $2^\alpha-$regular…
Interest in combinatorial interpretations of mathematical entities stems from the convenience of the concrete models they provide. Finding a bijective proof of a seemingly obscure identity can reveal unsuspected significance to it. Finding…
"Divergent" Ramanujan-type series for $1/\pi$ and $1/\pi^2$ provide us with new nice examples of supercongruences of the same kind as those related to the convergent cases. In this paper we manage to prove three of the supercongruences by…
Let M be a surface (possibly nonorientable) with punctures and/or boundary components. The paper is a study of ``geometric subgroups'' of the mapping class group of M, that is subgroups corresponding to inclusions of subsurfaces (possibly…
In a recent work, Andrews defined the singular overpartitions with the goal of presenting an overpartition analogue to the theorems of Rogers--Ramanujan type for ordinary partitions with restricted successive ranks. As a small part of his…
