Quotients and comprehension are fundamental mathematical constructions that can be described via adjunctions in categorical logic. This paper reveals that quotients and comprehension are related to measurement, not only in quantum logic,…

Quite recently, the first author investigated vanishing coefficients of the arithmetic progressions in several $q$-series expansions. In this paper, we further study the signs of coefficients in two $q$-series expansions and establish some…

We denote by $c_t^{(m)}(n)$ the coefficient of $q^n$ in the series expansion of $(q;q)_\infty^m(q^t;q^t)_\infty^{-m}$, which is the $m$-th power of the infinite Borwein product. Let $t$ and $m$ be positive integers with $m(t-1)\leq 24$. We…

We continue a series of papers studying the parity of families of eta-quotients, which provide implications for the parity of the partition function as well as an overarching conjecture on related $q$-series. The present article focuses on…

Motivated by the groundbreaking work of Andrews and Merca, truncated theta series have been extensively studied over the years. In particular, Merca made conjectures on the non-negativity of the coefficient of $q^N$ in truncated series from…

In this paper, we investigate the sign changes of Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight Hecke eigenforms and give two quantitative results on the number of sign changes.

We prove asymptotic formulas for the complex coefficients of $(\zeta q;q)_\infty^{-1}$, where $\zeta$ is a root of unity, and apply our results to determine secondary terms in the asymptotics for $p(a,b,n)$, the number of integer partitions…

An eta-quotient of level $N$ is a modular form of the shape $f(z) = \prod_{\delta | N} \eta(\delta z)^{r_{\delta}}$. We study the problem of determining levels $N$ for which the graded ring of holomorphic modular forms for $\Gamma_{0}(N)$…

We give an explicit natural identification between the quiver coefficients of Buch and Fulton, decomposition coefficients for Schubert polynomials, and the Schubert structure constants for flag manifolds. This is also achieved in K-theory…

We determine the asymptotic behavior of the coefficients of Hecke polynomials. In particular, this allows us to determine signs of these coefficients when the level or the weight is sufficiently large. In all but finitely many cases, this…

We prove that vector-valued Siegel cusp forms for $\Gamma_0^n(N)$ with certain nebentypus are determined by their fundamental Fourier coefficients with discriminants coprime to the level $N$, assuming $N$ is odd and square-free. In the case…

In this paper we provide a classification on the sign distribution of $\Delta _{E,\ell}(n):= p_{E,\ell }(n)^2 - p_{E,\ell }(n-1) \, p_{E,\ell }(n+1)$, where \begin{equation*} \sum_{n =0}^{\infty} p_{E,\ell }(n) \, q^n := \prod_{n \in S}…

Recently, Ono and the third author discovered that the reciprocals of the theta series $(q;q)_\infty^3$ and $(q^2;q^2)_\infty(q;q^2)_\infty^2$ have infinitely many closed formulas in terms of MacMahon's quasimodular forms $A_k(q)$ and…

We consider some questions related to the signs of Hecke eigenvalues or Fourier coefficients of classical modular forms. One problem is to determine to what extent those signs, for suitable sets of primes, determine uniquely the modular…

Let $\G\subset \mathrm{SL}_{2}(\R)$ be a cofinite Fuchsian subgroup, and let $i\infty$ be a cusp of $\G$. For $k\in\Z_{\geq 0}$, let $\Sk$ denote the complex vector space of cusp forms of weight-$k$, with respect to the Fuchsian subgroup…

We investigate the sign patterns of coefficients in the Ehrhart polynomial of the Cartesian product between the $r$-th pyramid over the Reeve tetrahedron and the hypercube $[0, n]^n$. This investigation yields partial results on the sign…

We consider products of $q$-gamma functions with rational arguments, and prove several $q$-generalizations of recent works concerning products of gamma functions. In particular, we consider products indexed by Dirichlet characters, and…

Based on a classical result on partitions of an integer into a finite set of positive integers, we establish a general positivity result on coefficients of certain $q$-series which uniformly refines the positivity of truncated pentagonal…

We compute the Fourier coefficients of the weight one modular form $\eta(z)\eta(2z)\eta(3z)/\eta(6z)$ in terms of the number of representations of an integer as a sum of two squares. We deduce a relation between this modular form and…
