We prove formulas for the generating functions for M_2-rank differences for partitions without repeated odd parts. These formulas are in terms of modular forms and generalized Lambert series.

In a recent work of Anderson and Hu, the authors constructed a measure that was $p$-adic and $q$-adic doubling, for any primes $p$ and $q$, yet not doubling. This work relied heavily on a developed number theory framework. Here we develop…

For any positive integers $n=2k$ and $m$ such that $m\geq k$, in this paper we show the maximal number of bent components of any $(n,m)$-functions is equal to $2^{m}-2^{m-k}$, and for those attaining the equality, their algebraic degree is…

It was recently shown that $q\omega(q)$, where $\omega(q)$ is one of the third order mock theta functions, is the generating function of $p_{\omega}(n)$, the number of partitions of a positive integer $n$ such that all odd parts are less…

In this paper, we define a new subclass of $k$-uniformly starlike functions of order $\gamma,\ (0\leq\gamma<1)$ by using certain generalized $q$-integral operator. We explore geometric interpretation of the functions in this class by…

We investigate subclasses of generalized Bernstein functions related to complete Bernstein and Thorin-Bernstein functions. Representations in terms of incomplete beta and gamma as well as hypergeometric functions are presented. Several…

We introduce and study a new class of generalized convex functions termed star quasiconvex functions. This class includes convex, star-convex, quasiconvex, quasar-convex, and positively homogeneous functions of any degree $p>0$ as special…

Let L/k be a finite Galois extension of number fields with Galois group G. For every odd prime p satisfying certain mild technical hypotheses, we use values of Artin L-functions to construct an element in the centre of the group ring…

We consider the even monic degree-$10$ second cuboid polynomial $Q_{p,q}(t)\in\mathbb{Z}[t]$ depending on coprime integers $p\neq q>0$. We exclude the existence of a splitting of type $5+5$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, i.e., a factorization of…

In this paper we define a notion of partial APNness and find various characterizations and constructions of classes of functions satisfying this condition. We connect this notion to the known conjecture that APN functions modified at a…

For each prime p other than 3, and each power q=p^k, we present two large classes of permutation polynomials over F_{q^2} of the form X^r B(X^{q-1}) which have at most five terms, where B(X) is a polynomial with coefficients in {1,-1}. The…

The functional equation f(p(z))=g(q(z)) is studied, where p,q are polynomials and f,g are trancendental meromorphic functions in C. We find all the pairs p,q for which there exist nonconstant f,g satisfying our equation and there exist no…

This article, complement to the article [Que], deals with some generalizations of Futw\"angler's theorems for the second case of Fermat's Last Theorem (FLT2). Let $p$ be an odd prime, $\zeta$ a $p$th primitive root of unity, $K:=\Q(\zeta)$…

We study Brown's definition of the probabilistic zeta function of a finite lattice as a generalization of that of a finite group. We propose a natural alternative or extension that may be better suited for non-atomistic lattices. The…

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…

We introduce and study a new class of generalized inverses in rings. An element $a$ in a ring $R$ has generalized Zhou inverse if there exists $b\in R$ such that $bab=b, b\in comm^2(a), a^n-ab\in \sqrt{J(R)}$ for some $n\in {\Bbb N}$. We…

For rational $\alpha$, the fractional partition functions $p_\alpha(n)$ are given by the coefficients of the generating function $(q;q)^\alpha_\infty$. When $\alpha=-1$, one obtains the usual partition function. Congruences of the form…

This note presents generalizations of the partial spread bent functions introduced by Dillon, as well as the corresponding relative difference sets in nonabelian groups.

Our objective is to usher and investigate the subclass$\widetilde{\mathcal{S^{*}_{\sum}}}^{\eta}_{q}(\mu,\lambda;\phi)$ of the function class $\sum$ of analytic and bi-univalent functions related with the symmetric $q$-derivative operator…

If the odd and even parts of a continued fraction converge to different values, the continued fraction may or may not converge in the general sense. We prove a theorem which settles the question of general convergence for a wide class of…
