In this note, we report on the results of a computer search performed to find possible modular companions to certain $q$-series identities and conjectures. For the search, we use conditions arising from the asymptotics of Nahm sums. We…

In this note, we use integral binary cubic forms to study the rational cube sum problem. We prove (unconditionally) that for any positive integer $d$, infinitely many primes in each of the residue classes $ 1 \pmod {9d}$ as well as $ -1…

The moduli space of solutions to Nahm's equations of rank (k,k+j) on the circle, and hence, of SU(2) calorons of charge (k,j), is shown to be equivalent to the moduli of holomorphic rank 2 bundles on P^1xP^1 trivialized at infinity with…

We study ranks of the $r\textrm{th}$ Hadamard powers of doubly nonnegative matrices and show that the matrix $A^{\circ r}$ is positive definite for every $n\times n$ doubly nonnegative matrix $A$ and for every $r>n-2$ if and only if no…

Let $A$ be the polynomial algebra in $r$ variables with coefficients in an algebraically closed field $k$. When the characteristic of $k$ is $2$, Carlsson conjectured that any $\mathrm{dg}$-$A$-module that is free of rank $N$ as an…

The modular subset sum problem consists of deciding, given a modulus $m$, a multiset $S$ of $n$ integers in $0..m-1$, and a target integer $t$, whether there exists a subset of $S$ with elements summing to $t \mod m $, and to report such a…

This article is an overview of Zagier's and Kim's work on traces of singular moduli. We give more detailed or new proofs to some of their results and also describe some algorithms to compute spaces of Jacobi forms and weight $3/2$ modular…

What is the maximum number of $r$-term sums admitting rational values in $n$-element sets of irrational numbers? We determine the maximum when $r<4$ or $r\geq n/2$ and also in case when we drop the condition on the number of summands. It…

We prove a strengthened form of a conjecture of Sun on a determinant attached to a binary quadratic form. Let $n>3$ and let $c,d\in\Z$. If $n$ is composite, then \[ \det\big[(i^2+cij+dj^2)^{n-2}\big]_{0\leq i,j\leq n-1}\equiv 0\pmod {n^2}…

Various aspects of the Nahm equations in 3 and 7 dimensions are investigated. The residues of the variables at simple poles in the 7-dimensional case form an algebra. A large class of matrix representations of this algebra is constructed.…

In the theory of coalgebras $C$ over a ring $R$, the rational functor relates the category of modules over the algebra $C^*$ (with convolution product) with the category of comodules over $C$. It is based on the pairing of the algebra $C^*$…

For any positive integer $m$, let $\mathbb{Z}_{m}$ be the set of residue classes modulo $m$. For $A\subseteq \mathbb{Z}_{m}$ and $\overline{n}\in \mathbb{Z}_{m}$, let representation function $R_{A}(\overline{n})$ denote the number of…

We classify the reflexive modules of rank one over rational and minimally elliptic singularities. Equivalently, we classify full line bundles on the resolutions of rational and minimally elliptic singularities. As an application, we…

For any positive integers l and m, a set of integers is said to be (weakly) l-sum-free modulo m if it contains no (pairwise distinct) elements $x_1,x_2,...,x_l,y$ satisfying the congruence $x_1+\...+x_l\equiv y\bmod{m}$. It is proved that,…

All Lie algebras and representations will be assumed to be finite dimensional over the complex numbers. Let $V(m)$ be the irreducible $\sl(2)$-module with highest weight $m\geq 1$ and consider the perfect Lie algebra $\g=\sl(2)\ltimes…

We show that many of Ramanujan's modular equations of degree 3 can be interpreted in terms of integral ternary quadratic forms. This way we establish that for any n in N |{n= x(x+1)/2 + y^2 +z^2 : x,y,z in Z}| >= |{n= x(x+1)/2 + 3y^2 +3z^2:…

We prove certain Nahm-type sum representations for the (odd modulus) Andrews-Gordon identities, the (even modulus) Andrews-Bressoud identities, and Rogers' false theta functions. These identities are motivated on one hand by a recent work…

In this note we give a different and direct short proof to a previous result of Nastasescu and Torrecillas in \cite{NT} stating that if the rational part of any right $C^*$ module $M$ is a direct sumand in $M$ then $C$ must be finite…

Given a Lie algebra $\frak{g}$, the \emph{Nahm algebra} of $\frak{g}$ is the vector space $\frak{g}\times \frak{g}\times \frak{g}$ with the natural commutative, nonassociative algebra structure associated with the Nahm equations $\dot{x} =…

In this paper, we investigate linear relations among regularized motivic iterated integrals on $\mathbb{P}^{1}\setminus\{0,1,\infty\}$ of depth two, which we call regularized motivic double zeta values. Some mysterious connections between…
