The present authors introduced a two-color partition series $S(q)$ and conjectured a Hecke-type formula for the even part of $(q^4;q^4)_\infty S(q)$. Banerjee and Bringmann proved the conjecture by using indefinite theta functions, modular…

Let $f$ be a weight $k$ holomorphic cusp form of level one, and let $S_f(n)$ denote the sum of the first $n$ Fourier coefficients of $f$. In analogy with Dirichlet's divisor problem, it is conjectured that $S_f(X) \ll X^{\frac{k-1}{2} +…

We prove new bounds for weighted mean values of sums involving Fourier coefficients of cusp forms that are automorphic with respect to a Hecke congruence subgroup \Gamma =\Gamma_0(q) of the group SL(2,Z[i]), and correspond to exceptional…

We consider the problem of estimating the error term $\mathcal{E}_{q}(x)=\big|\mathbb{Z}^{2q+1}\cap\delta_{x}\mathcal{B}\big|-\textit{vol}\big(\mathcal{B}\big)x^{2q+2}$ which occurs in the counting of lattice points in Heisenberg dilates of…

We prove that if $f(n)$ is a Steinhaus or Rademacher random multiplicative function, there almost surely exist arbitrarily large values of $x$ for which $|\sum_{n \leq x} f(n)| \geq \sqrt{x} (\log\log x)^{1/4+o(1)}$. This is the first such…

Let $f$ be a fixed self-contragradient Hecke-Maass form for $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$, and $u$ an even Hecke-Maass form for $SL(2,\mathbb Z)$ with Laplace eigenvalue $1/4+k^2$, $k>0$. A subconvexity bound $O\big(k^{4/3+\varepsilon}\big)$ in the…

We underline a problem existing in the heavy quark limit of QCD concerning the rates of semileptonic B decays into P-wave $D_J(j)$ mesons, where $j = {1 \over 2}$ (wide states) or $j = {3 \over 2}$ (narrow states). The leading order sum…

We show that for any prime prime $p\not=2$ $$\sum_{k=1}^{p-1} {(-1)^k\over k}{-{1\over 2} \choose k} \equiv -\sum_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}{1\over k} \pmod{p^3}$$ by expressing the l.h.s. as a combination of alternating multiple harmonic sums.

Let $f$ be a Hecke cusp form of weight $k$ for the full modular group, and let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n\geq 1}$ be the sequence of its normalized Fourier coefficients. Motivated by the problem of the first sign change of $\lambda_f(n)$, we…

We give an upper bound for the error term in the Hardy-Ramanujan-Rademacher formula for the partition function. The main input is a new hybrid subconvexity bound for the central value $L(\tfrac 12,f\times (\tfrac{q}{\cdot}))$ in the $q$ and…

In this paper we extend the results in [Ra] on the representation of the Hecke algebra, determined by the matrix coefficients of a projective, unitary representation, in the discrete series of representations of the ambient group, to a more…

A formula is proved for the number of linear factors and irreducible cubic factors over $\mathbb{F}_l$ of the Hasse invariant $\hat H_{7,l}(a)$ of the Tate normal form $E_7(a)$ for a point of order $7$, as a polynomial in the parameter $a$,…

Let $\pi$ be a $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke Maass-cusp form, $f$ be a $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$ holomorphic cusp form or Maass-cusp form with normalized Fourier coefficients $\lambda_{\pi}(r,n) \text{ and }\lambda_{f}(n)$ respectively and $\chi$ be…

In this paper, we obtain some improved results for the exponential sum $\sum_{x<n\leq 2x}\Lambda(n)e(\alpha k n^{\theta})$ with $\theta\in(0,5/12),$ where $\Lambda(n)$ is the von Mangoldt function. Such exponential sums have relations with…

Let $\theta$ and $\rho$ be real numbers with $0 \le \theta, \rho < 1$ and $\theta$ irrational. We show that the Hecke-Mahler series $$ F_{\theta, \rho} (z_1, z_2) = \sum_{k_1 \ge 1} \, \sum_{k_2 = 1}^{\lfloor k_1 \theta + \rho \rfloor} \,…

Many exponential sums over finite fields, including Gauss sums and Kloosterman sums, arise as the Fourier transform with respect to a character of the trace function of an $\ell$-adic sheaf on a commutative algebraic group. We study the…

We study two analogs, for modular forms over $\mathbb{F}_{q}(T)$, of the pairing between Hecke algebra and cusp forms given by the first coefficient in the expansion. For Drinfeld modular forms, the $\mathbb{C}_{\infty}$-pairing is provided…

The Fourier coefficients of a Maass form $\phi$ for SL$(n,\mathbb Z)$ are complex numbers $A_\phi(M)$, where $M=(m_1,m_2,\ldots,m_{n-1})$ and $m_1,m_2,\ldots ,m_{n-1}$ are nonzero integers. It is well known that coefficients of the form…
