We consider a joint ordered multifactorisation for a given positive integer $n\geq 2$ into $m$ parts, where $n=n_1~\times~\ldots~\times~n_m$, and each part $n_j$ is split into one or more component factors. Our central result gives an…

We formulate a thermodynamical approach to the study of distribution of modular symbols, motivated by the work of Baladi-Vall\'ee. We introduce the modular partitions of continued fractions and observe that the statistics for modular…

Let $A$ be a nonempty finite subset of an additive abelian group $G$. Given a nonnegative integer $h$, the $h$-fold sumset $hA$ is the set of all sums of $h$ elements of $A$, and the restricted $h$-fold sumset $h^\wedge A$ is the set of all…

Descent theory (a modern formulation of Fermat's classical method of infinite descent) is a powerful tool in arithmetic geometry. In this article, we reinterpret descent theory through the lens of quotient stacks and apply it in the setting…

For any positive integers $s$ and $t$, let $Q_{t}^{s}(n)$ denotes the number of partitions of a positive integer $n$ into distinct parts such that no part is congruent to $s$ or $t-s$ modulo $t$. We prove some Ramanujan-type congruences for…

Let $\mathfrak{m}$ be an element of an abelian monoid, with $\Omega(\mathfrak{m})$ denoting the total number of prime elements generating $\mathfrak{m}$. We study the moments of $\Omega(\mathfrak{m})$ over subsets of $h$-free and $h$-full…

We prove an Eichler-type criterion for symplectic lattices which determines in a simple way when two primitive vectors are equivalent under a canonical congruence subgroup of the symplectic group. This is supplemented by another, related…

It is known that the values of multiple zeta functions (MZFs) at non-positive integers can be expressed by Bernoulli numbers. This paper gives explicit formulas for the values of MZFs and multiple zeta star functions (MZSFs) at non-positive…

Double descent is a method to construct automorphic representations of classical groups. For given A-parameter $\psi$ with certain good properties, double descent constructs a space of functions orthogonal to any cuspidal representation…

We find nine new sets of rank four Nahm sums associated with nine different numeric matrices which are likely to be modular. They are discovered by applying the lift-dual operation to some modular rank three Nahm sums in the works of Zagier…

Let $p\geq 7$ and suppose $(p,p-2)$ are twin prime numbers, in [Hatley, 2009], the elliptic curve $E_p:y^2=x(x-2)(x-p)$ was considered in the context of a conjecture by Jason Beers about the Mordell-Weil ranks of $E_p/\mathbb{Q}$. I show…

We investigate the behaviour of the reduction type and related invariants of curves in families of curves over a discretely valued field. By a family, we will mean a set of curves obtained by perturbing the coefficients of the defining…

We provide an alternative exposition of a result due to Schinzel. Fix an integer $k \ge 2$. For almost all choices of positive integers $n_{1} < \cdots < n_{k}$, we show that the polynomial $F(x) = 1 + x^{n_{1}} + \cdots + x^{n_{k}}$,…

A positive integer $n$ is called a balancing number if there exists a positive integer $r$ such that $1 + 2 + \cdots + (n-1) = (n+1) + (n+2) + \cdots + (n+r)$. The corresponding value $r$ is known as the balancer of $n$. If $n$ is a…

In this paper, we investigate the conditional large values of the quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions near the central point $s=1/2$. When $\sigma $ closes to $1/2$ within a suitable range, we show that $L(\sigma, \chi_d)$ have the…

For an irrational $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}$, we consider additive problems with the set of primes satisfying $\lVert\alpha p\rVert\leq \frac{1}{p^\tau}$ for some fixed $\tau>0$. In particular, we show that there exist infinitely many…

The profinite iterated monodromy group (pfIMG) is a self-similar group associated to dynamical systems. We show that its proper open self-similar subgroups correspond to highly rigid semiconjugacies, which we partly classify in general. For…

The presence of large partial quotients can invalidate many classical limit theorems in the metric theory of continued fractions. A commonly employed strategy to overcome this problem is to discard the largest partial quotient when…

The enumeration $d_k(n)$ of $k$-elongated plane partition diamonds has emerged as a generalization of the classical integer partition function $p(n)$. Congruences for $d_k(n)$ modulo certain powers of primes have been proven via elementary…

A well-known conjecture of Gross and Zagier states that the values of the higher automorphic Green's function at pairs of points with complex multiplication in the upper half-plane are proportional to the logarithm of an algebraic number.…
