This note outlines an approach to defining $p$-adic Shimura classes and $p$-adic derived Hecke operators on the completed cohomology of modular curves from upcoming work by the author. After reviewing the modulo-$p$ constructions of Harris…

Half-integral weight modular forms are naturally viewed as automorphic forms on the so-called metaplectic covering of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbf{A}_{\mathbf{Q}})$ -- a central extension by the roots of unity $\mu_2$ in $\mathbf{Q}$. For…

We obtain new results about the representation of almost all residues modulo a prime $p$ by a product of a small integer and also an element of small multiplicative subgroup of $({\mathbb Z}/p{\mathbb Z})^*$. These results are based on some…

Let $p>5$ be a prime. We prove congruences modulo $p^{3-d}$ for sums of the general form $\sum_{k=0}^{(p-3)/2}\binom{2k}{k}t^k/(2k+1)^{d+1}$ and $\sum_{k=1}^{(p-1)/2}\binom{2k}{k}t^k/k^d$ with $d=0,1$. We also consider the special case…

We obtain new recurrence relations, an explicit formula, and convolution identities for higher order geometric polynomials. These relations generalize known results for geometric polynomials, and lead to congruences for higher order…

The purpose of this note is to obtain some congruences modulo a power of a prime $p$ involving the truncated hypergeometric series $$\sum_{k=1}^{p-1} {(x)_k(1-x)_k\over (1)_k^2}\cdot{1\over k^a}$$ for $a=1$ and $a=2$. In the last section,…

Recently Lachterman, Schayer, and Younger published an elegant proof of the Ramanujan congruences for the partition function $p(n)$. Their proof uses only the classical theory of modular forms as well as a beautiful result of Choie, Kohnen,…

Let $\ell \geq 5$ be a prime, and let $\nu_\eta$ denote the Dedekind eta multiplier. For an odd integer $r$, and a real Dirichlet character $\psi$, recent work of Ahlgren, Andersen, and the author showed that quadratic congruences modulo…

We present some congruences modulo $p^{6-d}$ for sums of the type $\sum_{k=0}^{(p-3)/2}x^k{2k\choose k}/(2k+1)^d$, for $d=1,2,3$ where $p>5$ is a prime.

New congruences are found for Andrews' smallest parts partition function spt(n). The generating function for spt(n) is related to the holomorphic part alpha(24z) of a certain weak Maass form M(z) of weight 3/2. We show that a normalized…

We generalize the notion of mod $p^m$ singular Siegel modular forms of $p$-rank $r$ to the vector-valued case and we show that also in this case a congruence mod $(p-1)p^{m-1}$ between the scalar weight and the $p$-rank must hold. In some…
