For $a\in \Bbb Z$ and $b\in\Bbb N$, $(a,b)=1$, let $s(a,b)$ denote the classical Dedekind sum. We show that Dedekind sums take this value infinitely many times in the following sense. There are pairs $(a_i,b_i)$, $i\in\Bbb N$, with $b_i$…

This note presents selected values of definite integrals whose integrand contains a power of the Dedekind function having imaginary argument.

Let $k \ge 2$ be a fixed integer. We define the multiplicative function $D_k(n) = d_k(n)/d_k^*(n)$, such that $d_k(n)$ is the Piltz divisor function and $d_k^*(n) = k^{\omega(n)}$ is its unitary analogue, where $\omega(n)$ is the number of…

Classical Dedekind sums are connected to the modular group through the construction of a (Dedekind) symbol on the cusp set of the modular group. In this paper we study generalizations of Dedekind symbols and sums that can be associated to…

Let f be a classical holomorphic cusp form for SL_2(Z) of weight k which is a normalized eigenfunction for the Hecke algebra, and let \lambda(n) be its eigenvalues. In this paper we study "shifted convolution sums" of the eigenvalues…

Let $s(a,b)$ denote the classical Dedekind sum and $S(a,b)=12s(a,b)$. Recently, Du and Zhang proved the following reciprocity formula. If $a$ and $b$ are odd natural numbers, $(a,b)=1$, then $$ S(2a^*,b)+S(2b^*,a)=\frac{a^2+b^2+4}{2ab}-3,…

We study reciprocity formulas for Dedekind sums associated with absolutely continuous functions, extending the classical Dedekind-Rademacher reciprocity formula. In particular, we treat the case of periodic Bernoulli functions. Our approach…

In this paper, we study the generalized Dedekind-Rademacher sums considered by Hall, Wilson and Zagier. We establish a formula for the products of two Bernoulli functions. The proof relies on Parseval's formula, Hurwitz's formula, and…

We prove a formula for weighted sums of the first $n$ coefficients of mock modular forms of moderate growth and apply it to Hurwitz class numbers and coefficients of negative half integral weight Eisenstein series, which take the form of…

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…

For integers $n,k,s$, we give a formula for the number $T(n,k,s)$ of order $k$ subsets of the ring $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$ whose sum of elements is $s$ modulo $n$. To do so, we describe explicitly a sequence of matrices $M(k)$, for…

We define and study generalized Dedekind symbols with values in non--necessarily commutative groups, generalizing constructions of Sh. Fukuhara in [Fu1], [Fu2]. Basic examples of such symbols are obtained by replacing period integrals of…

We introduce and study the \emph{Rademacher-Carlitz polynomial} \[ \RC(u, v, s, t, a, b) := \sum_{k = \lceil s \rceil}^{\lceil s \rceil + b - 1} u^{\fl{\frac{ka + t}{b}}} v^k \] where $a, b \in \Z_{>0}$, $s, t \in \R$, and $u$ and $v$ are…

The starting point of this paper are the Mittag-Leffler polynomials introduced by H. Bateman [1]. Based on generalized integer powers of real numbers and deformed exponential function, we introduce deformed Mittag-Leffler polynomials…

In \cite{csc}, Cetin et al. defined a new special finite sum which is denoted by $B_{1}(h,k)$. In this paper, with the help of the Hardy and Dedekind sums we will give many properties of the sum $B_{1}(h,k).$ Then we will give the…

We show that deciding the equality of two Dedekind sums $S(c,b)$, $S(d,b)$ is equivalent to deciding whether a Dedekind sum defined by $b, c, d$ takes a certain value. By means of this result we construct infinite sequences of pairwise…

This is an expanded version. We study relations among special values of zeta functions, invariants of toric varieties, and generalized Dedekind sums. In particular, we use invariants arising in the Todd class of a toric variety to give a…

The polynomial Ramanujan sum was first introduced by Carlitz [7], and a generalized version by Cohen [10]. In this paper, we study the arithmetical and analytic properties of these sums, derive various fundamental identities, such as H…

An integral power series is called lacunary modulo $M$ if almost all of its coefficients are divisible by $M$. Motivated by the parity problem for the partition function, $p(n)$, Gordon and Ono studied the generating functions for…

This paper gives an elementary introduction to noncommutative deformations of modules. The main results of this deformation theory are due to Laudal. Let k be an algebraically closed (commutative) field, let A be an associative k-algebra,…
