Hypergeometric functions over finite fields were introduced by Greene in the 1980s as a finite field analogue of classical hypergeometric series. These functions, and their generalizations, naturally lend themselves to, and have been widely…
In this note we state (with minor corrections) and give an alternative proof of a very general hypergeometric transformation formula due to Slater. As an application, we obtain a new hypergeometric transformation formula for a ${}_5F_4(-1)$…
Galilean Relativity and Einstein's Special and General Relativity showed that the Laws of Physics go deeper than their representations in any given reference frame. Thus covariance, or independence of Laws of Physics with respect to changes…
An implicit fundamental assumption in relativistic perturbation theory is that there exists a parametric family of spacetimes that can be Taylor expanded around a background. The choice of the latter is crucial to obtain a manageable…
We consider the Lorenz equations, a system of three dimensional ordinary differential equations modeling atmospheric convection. These equations are chaotic and hard to study even numerically, and so a simpler "geometric model" has been…
This note is concerned with series of the forms $\sum f(a^n)$ and $\sum f(n^{-a})$ where f(a) possesses a Mellin transform and $a > 1$ or $a<0$ respectively. Integral representations are derived and used to transform these series in several…
The generators and commutation relations are calculated explicitly for higher symmetry algebras of a class of hyperbolic Euler-Lagrange systems of Liouville type (in particular, for 2D Toda chains associated with semi-simple complex Lie…
In the paper Sato (2006) there are introduced two families of improper random integrals and the corresponding two convolution semigroups of infinitely divisible laws on $\Rset^d$. Theorem 3.1 gives a relation (a factorization property)…
We exhibit a three parameter infinite family of quadratic recurrence relations inspired by the well known Somos sequences. For one infinite subfamily we prove that the recurrence generates an infinite sequence of integers by showing that…
Let $R$ be a commutative $\mathbb{Z}[1/p]$-algebra, let $m \leq n$ be positive integers, and let $G_n=\text{GL}_n(F)$ and $G_m=\text{GL}_m(F)$ where $F$ is a $p$-adic field. The Weil representation is the smooth $R[G_n\times G_m]$-module…
We give a Pfaffian system of differential equations annihilating Lauricella's hypergeometric series $F_A(a,b,c;x)$ of $m$-variables. This system is integrable of rank $2^m$. To express the connection form of this system, we make use of the…
As a continuation of \lianyaufour, we study modular properties of the periods, the mirror maps and Yukawa couplings for multi-moduli Calabi-Yau varieties. In Part A of this paper, motivated by the recent work of Kachru-Vafa, we degenerate a…
We formalize some basic properties of Fourier series in the logic of ACL2(r), which is a variant of ACL2 that supports reasoning about the real and complex numbers by way of non-standard analysis. More specifically, we extend a framework…
The bilateral series corresponding to many of the third-, fifth-, sixth- and eighth order mock theta functions may be derived as special cases of $_2\psi_2$ series \[ \sum_{n=-\infty}^{\infty}\frac{(a,c;q)_n}{(b,d;q)_n}z^n. \] Three…
In his article "Transcending Classical Invariant Theory" (J.A.M.S., 1989, Vol 2), Roger Howe established a correspondence between representations of a dual pair of reductive groups. This correspondence is known as Howe's correspondence or…
In [Kit1] Kitaev discussed simultaneous avoidance of two 3-patterns with no internal dashes, that is, where the patterns correspond to contiguous subwords in a permutation. In three essentially different cases, the numbers of such…
We define an algebra on two generators which we call the Tridiagonal algebra, and we consider its irreducible modules. The algebra is defined as follows. Let K denote a field, and let $\beta, \gamma, \gamma^*, \varrho, \varrho^*$ denote a…
Page 27 of Ramanujan's Lost Notebook contains a beautiful identity which not only gives, as a special case, a famous modular relation between the Rogers-Ramanujan functions $G(q)$ and $H(q)$ but also a relation between two fifth order mock…
We examine the various linkings in space-time of ``ball-like'' and ``ring-like'' topological solitons in certain nonlinear sigma models in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions. By going to theories where soliton overlaps are forbidden, these linkings…
We derive two generalizations of Gasper's transformation formula for basic hypergeometric series. Using these generalized formulas, we give explicit expressions for the coefficients of three-term relations for the basic hypergeometric…
