We give a simple matrix-based proof of congruence equations modulo a prime $p$ involving sums of binomial coefficients appearing in Pascal's triangle. These equations can be used to construct some groups of exponent $p^n$. These groups, as…

A prime number $p$ is said to be a Wolstenholme prime if it satisfies the congruence ${2p-1\choose p-1} \equiv 1 \,\,(\bmod{\,\,p^4})$. For such a prime $p$, we establish the expression for ${2p-1\choose p-1}\,\,(\bmod{\,\,p^8})$ given in…

For $m$ an even positive integer and $p$ a prime, we show that the generalized Euler polynomial $E_{mp}^{(mp)}(x)$ is in Eisenstein form with respect to $p$ if and only if $p$ does not divide $m (2^m-1)B_m$. As a consequence, we deduce that…

To every $k$-dimensional modular invariant vector space we associate a modular form on $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ of weight $2k$. We explore number theoretic properties of this form and find a sufficient condition for its vanishing which yields…

Let $p>5$ be a fixed prime. We obtain an asymptotic formula related to small solutions of quadratic congruences of the form $x_1^2+x_2^2\equiv x_3^2\bmod{p^n}$ where $\max\{|x_1|,|x_2|,|x_3|\}\le p^{\nu n}$ with $\nu>1/2$.

Let $k \geq 2$ and $N$ be positive integers and let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character modulo $N$. Let $f(z)$ be a modular form in $M_k(\Gamma_0(N),\chi)$. Then we have a unique decomposition $f(z)=E_f(z)+S_f(z)$, where $E_f(z) \in…

Hashimoto and Ueda determined the weights of generators of the graded ring of modular forms on the Cayley half-space of degree two. In this paper we describe explicit generators. We show that the graded ring can be generated by Eisenstein…

We study the sup-norm and mean-square-norm problems for Eisenstein series on certain arithmetic hyperbolic orbifolds, producing sharp exponents for the modular surface and Picard 3-fold. The methods involve bounds for Epstein zeta…

Let N and p be two prime numbers > 3 such that p divides N-1. We estimate the p-rank of the class group of Q(N^(1/p)) in terms of the discrete logarithm, with values un F_p, of certain units. Using the Gross--Koblitz formula and identities…

We calculate the constant terms of certain Hilbert modular Eisenstein series at all cusps. Our formula relates these constant terms to special values of Hecke $L$-series. This builds on previous work of Ozawa, in which a restricted class of…

We consider the rationality of the Fourier coefficients of a particular paramodular Siegel Eisenstein series of level $N^2$ with weight $k\geq 4$. We show that the coefficients lie in a number field.

Let p be a prime number. The Hasse invariant is a modular form modulo p that is often used to produce congruences between modular forms of different weights. We show how to produce such congruences between forms of weights 2 and p+1, in…
