By considering the $M_2$-rank of an overpartition as well as a residual crank, we give another combinatorial refinement of the congruences $\overline{\mbox{spt}}_2(3n)\equiv \overline{\mbox{spt}}_2(3n+1)\equiv 0\pmod{3}$. Here…
Bringmann, Lovejoy, and Osburn showed that the generating functions of the spt-overpartition functions spt(n), spt1(n), spt2(n), and M2spt(n) are quasimock theta functions, and satisfy a number of simple Ramanujan-like congruences. Andrews,…
We give a basis for the space V spanned by the lowest degree part \hat{s}_\lambda of the expansion of the Schur symmetric functions s_\lambda in terms of power sums, where we define the degree of the power sum p_i to be 1. In particular,…
The rank of a skew partition $\lambda/\mu$, denoted $rank(\lambda/\mu)$, is the smallest number $r$ such that $\lambda/\mu$ is a disjoint union of $r$ border strips. Let $s_{\lambda/\mu}(1^t)$ denote the skew Schur function…
We introduce several spt-type functions that arise from Bailey pairs. We prove simple Ramanujan type congruences for these functions which can be explained by a spt-crank-type function. The spt-crank-type functions are constructed by adding…
We consider the Perona-Malik functional in dimension one, namely an integral functional whose Lagrangian is convex-concave with respect to the derivative, with a convexification that is identically zero. We approximate and regularize the…
Let $N(\leq m,n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with rank not greater than $m$, and let $M(\leq m,n)$ denote the number of partitions of $n$ with crank not greater than $m$. Bringmann and Mahlburg observed that $N(\leq m,n)\leq…
We introduce the multiple zeta functions with structures similar to those of symmetric functions such as Schur $P$-, Schur $Q$-, symplectic and orthogonal functions in the representation theory. We first consider their basic properties such…
We improve the error term in the asymptotic formula for the twisted fourth moment of automorphic L functions of prime level and weight two proved by Kowalski, Michel and Vanderkam. As a consequence, we obtain a new subconvexity bound in the…
Dyson famously provided combinatorial explanations for Ramanujan's partition congruences modulo $5$ and $7$ via his rank function, and postulated that an invariant explaining all of Ramanujan's congruences modulo $5$, $7$, and $11$ should…
Bringmann, Mahlburg, and Rhoades have found asymptotic expressions for all moments of the partition statistics rank and crank. In this work we extend their methods to higher ranks. The $T$-rank, introduced by Garvan, for odd integers T=3 is…
As a generalization of the Dedekind zeta function, Weng defined the high rank zeta functions and proved that they have standard properties of zeta functions, namely, meromorphic continuation, functional equation, and having only two simple…
The purpose of this note is to offer some partition implications of a $q$-series that is connected to the second Atkin-Garvan moment. Inequalities and relationships among the number of divisors and partitions are provided as consequences.
We study the dual descriptions recently discovered for the Seiberg-Witten theory in the presence of surface operators. The Nekrasov partition function for a four-dimensional N=2 gauge theory with a surface operator is believed equal to the…
Most approximation methods in high dimensions exploit smoothness of the function being approximated. These methods provide poor convergence results for non-smooth functions with kinks. For example, such kinks can arise in the uncertainty…
For a class of integral operators with kernels metric functions on manifold we find some necessary and sufficient conditions to have finite rank. The problem we pose has a stochastic nature and boils down to the following alternative…
We construct an iterated stochastic integral with fractional Brownian motion with H > 1/2. The first integrand is a deterministic function, and each successive integral is with respect to an independent fBm. We show that this symmetric…
New identities and congruences involving the ranks and cranks of partitions are proved. The proof depends on a new partial differential equation connecting their generating functions.
Building on work of Hardy and Ramanujan, Rademacher proved a well-known formula for the values of the ordinary partition function $p(n)$. More recently, Bruinier and Ono obtained an algebraic formula for these values. Here we study the…
In this paper, we discuss the problem of minimizing the sum of two convex functions: a smooth function plus a non-smooth function. Further, the smooth part can be expressed by the average of a large number of smooth component functions, and…
