In this paper, we derive eight basic identities of symmetry in three variables related to Bernoulli polynomials and power sums. These and most of their corollaries are new, since there have been results only about identities of symmetry in…

We obtain transformation formulas for quadratic character sums with quartic and cubic polynomial arguments.

For each $k\in\mathbb{A}^4(\mathbb{C})$, consider the character variety $X_k$ on a four-holed sphere. We prove that it is decidable whether or not any two integral solutions of $X_k$ are in the same mapping class group orbit. For this,…

We present fermionic sum representation for the general Virasoro character of the unitary minimal superconformal series ($N=1$). Example of the corresponding ``finitizated" identities relating corner transfer matrix polynomials with…

Let $A$ be a noetherian connected graded algebra. We introduce and study homological invariants that are weighted sums of the homological and internal degrees of cochain complexes of graded $A$-modules, providing weighted versions of…

We prove an explicit version of Burgess' bound on character sums for composite moduli.

We establish new estimates on short character sums for arbitrary composite moduli with small prime factors. Our main result improves on the Graham-Ringrose bound for square free moduli and also on the result due to Gallagher and Iwaniec…

We re-write the character formul{\ae} of Adler and the second-named author in a form amenable to explicit computations in $p$-adic harmonic analysis, and use them to prove the stability of character sums for a modification of Reeder's…

We study upper bounds for sums of Dirichlet characters. We prove a uniform upper bound of the character sum over all proper generalized arithmetic progressions, which generalizes the classical Polya and Vinogradov inequality. Our argument…

In this paper, we obtain formulas for the number of representations of positive integers as sums of arbitrarily many squares (and other polygonal numbers) with a certain natural weighting. The resulting weighted sums give Fourier…

For the Borromean link, we determine its irreducible ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb{C})$-character variety, and find a formula for the twisted Alexander polynomial as a function on the character variety.

In this note, we establish a Vorono\"i--Oppenheim summation formula for divisor functions over an arbitrary number field.

We consider the numbers $\mathcal{B}_{r,s} = (\mathbf{B}+1)^r \mathbf{B}^s$ (in umbral notation $\mathbf{B}^n = \mathbf{B}_n$ with the Bernoulli numbers) that have a well-known reciprocity relation, which is frequently found in the…

We describe a new formula for weight multiplicities and characters of semisimple Lie algebras. Our formula expresses these weight multiplicities as sums of positive rational numbers. In fact, the formula works more generally for the Jacobi…

Let $G_\cpl$ be a connected complex reductive Lie group, and $G$ be a real form. Let $(\pi,V)$ be a finite-dimensional irreducible representation of $G$. Assume $(\pi,V)$ admits a $G$ invariant hermitian form. {In…

The concept of a fully interlacing matrix of formal power series with real coefficients is introduced. This concept extends and strengthens that of an interlacing sequence of real-rooted polynomials with nonnegative coefficients, in the…

Let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character (mod $n$) with conductor $d$. In a quite recent paper Zhao and Cao deduced the identity $\sum_{k=1}^n (k-1,n) \chi(k)= \varphi(n)\tau(n/d)$, which reduces to Menon's identity if $\chi$ is the principal…

We combine an extended version of Bailey's transform with an identity of Bressoud and with some identities of Berkovich and Warnaar to prove a variety of positivity results for alternating sums involving partition functions.

We obtain new results on additive properties of the set $$ I^{-1}= \{x^{-1}: \quad x\in I\} $$ where $I$ is an arbitrary interval in the field of residue classes modulo a large prime $p$. We combine our results with multilinear exponential…

We give a new identity involving Bernoulli polynomials and combinatorial numbers. This provides, in particular, a Faulhaber-like formula for sums of the form $1^m (n-1)^m + 2^m (n-2)^m + \cdots + (n-1)^m 1^m$ for positive integers $m$ and…
