We set up a connection between the theory of spherical designs and the question of minima of Epstein's zeta function. More precisely, we prove that a Euclidean lattice, all layers of which hold a 4-design, achieves a local minimum of the…

We study the connection between the theory of spherical designs and the question of extrema of the height function of lattices. More precisely, we show that a full-rank n-dimensional Euclidean lattice, all layers of which hold a spherical…

The Lehmer conjecture states that the non-constant Fourier coefficients of the 24th power of the Dedekind eta function are non-zero. In a recent preprint, Neuhauser and the first author exploited an easily accessible tool from algebraic…

The mock theta conjectures are ten identities involving Ramanujan's fifth-order mock theta functions. The conjectures were proven by Hickerson in 1988 using q-series methods. Using methods from the theory of harmonic Maass forms,…

In this paper we give a new proof of the Quantum Unique Ergodicity conjecture for holomorphic integral weight modular forms on the upper half plane. The proof requires only partial results towards the Ramanujan conjecture and the shifted…

It is known from \cite{LW} that the solvability of the mean field equation $\Delta u+e^{u}=8n\pi \delta_{0}$ with $n\in\mathbb{N}_{\geq 1}$ on a flat torus $E_{\tau}$ essentially depends on the geometry of $E_{\tau}$. A conjecture is the…

In this paper we significantly extend Serre's table on the vanishing properties of Fourier coefficients of odd powers of the Dedekind eta function. We address several conjectures of Cohen and Str\"omberg and give a partial answer to a…

We make an analytical proof for Lehmer's totient conjecture. Lehmer conjectured that there is no solution for the congruence equation $n-1\equiv 0~(mod~\phi(n))$ with composite integers,$n$, where $\phi(n)$ denotes Euler's totient function.…

The $\mu\tau$-reflection symmetry is a simple symmetry capable of predicting all the unknown CP phases of the lepton sector and the atmospheric angle but too simple to predict the absolute neutrino mass scale or the mass ordering. We show…

In the spirit of Lehmer's speculation that Ramanujan's tau-function never vanishes, it is natural to ask whether any given integer $\alpha$ is a value of $\tau(n)$. For odd $\alpha$, Murty, Murty, and Shorey proved that $\tau(n)\neq \alpha$…

In their work, Serre and Swinnerton-Dyer study the congruence properties of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms. We examine similar congruence properties, but for the coefficients of a modified Taylor expansion about a CM point…

We study which integers are admissible as Fourier coefficients of even integer weight newforms. In the specific case of the tau-function, we show that for all odd primes $\ell < 100$ and all integers $m \geq 1$, we have $$ \tau(n) \neq \pm…

Recently, Schlosser and Zhou proposed many conjectures on sign patterns of the coefficients appearing in the $q$-series expansions of the infinite Borwein product and other infinite products raised to a real power. In this paper, we will…

We conjecture a structure formula for the $\mathrm{SU}(r)$ Vafa-Witten partition function for surfaces with holomorphic 2-form. The conjecture is based on $S$-duality and a structure formula for the vertical contribution previously derived…

Ramanujan showed that $\tau(p) \equiv p^{11}+1 \pmod{691}$, where $\tau(n)$ is the $n$-th Fourier coefficient of the unique normalized cusp form of weight $12$ and full level, and the prime $691$ appears in the numerator of…

We prove recursive formulas for the Taylor coefficients of cusp forms, such as Ramanujan's Delta function, at points in the upper half-plane. This allows us to show the non-vanishing of all Taylor coefficients of Delta at CM points of small…

Elsner, Luca and Tachiya proved in 2019 that the values of the Jacobi-theta constants $\theta_3(m\tau)$ and $\theta_3(n\tau)$ are algebraically independent over $\mathbb{Q}$ for distinct integers $m,n$ under some conditions on $\tau$. On…

This paper completes the proof of the Ramanujan Conjecture for holomorphic Hilbert modular forms whose weights are all congruent modulo 2. As a consequence, the Weight-Monodromy Conjecture and the zeta function conjecture of Langlands are…

Inspired by Lehmer's conjecture on the nonvanishing of the Ramanujan $\tau$-function, one may ask whether an odd integer $\alpha$ can be equal to $\tau(n)$ or any coefficient of a newform $f(z)$. Balakrishnan, Craig, Ono, and Tsai used the…

In 1997 the author found a criterion for the Riemann hypothesis for the Riemann zeta function, involving the nonnegativity of certain coefficients associated with the Riemann zeta function. In 1999 Bombieri and Lagarias obtained an…
