The partition function of ABJ(M) theories on the three-sphere can be regarded as the canonical partition function of an ideal Fermi gas with a non-trivial Hamiltonian. We propose an exact expression for the spectral determinant of this…
We study partitions of complex numbers as sums of non-negative powers of a fixed algebraic number $\beta$. We prove that if $\beta$ is real quadratic, then the number of partitions is always finite if and only if some conjugate of $\beta$…
We obtain nontrivial bounds for character sums with multiplicative and additive characters over finite fields over elements with restricted coordinate expansion. In particular, we obtain a nontrivial estimate for such a sum over a finite…
We say that two elements of a group or semigroup are $\Bbbk$-linear conjugates if their images under any linear representation over $\Bbbk$ are conjugate matrices. In this paper we characterize $\Bbbk$-linear conjugacy for finite semigroups…
Given a finite group scheme $\cG$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $\Char(k)=p>0$, we introduce new invariants for a $\cG$-module $M$ by associating certain morphisms $\deg^j_M : U_M \lra \Gr_d(M) \ \…
Motivated by the recent work of Zhi-Wei Sun on determinants involving the Legendre symbol, in this paper, we study some matrices concerning subgroups of finite fields. For example, let $q\equiv 3\pmod 4$ be an odd prime power and let $\phi$…
Often in mathematics it is useful to summarize a multivariate phenomenon with a single number and in fact, the determinant -- which is represented by det -- is one of the simplest cases. In fact, this number it is defined only for square…
In this article we present certain formulas involving arithmetical functions. In the first part we study properties of sums and product formulas for general type of arithmetic functions. In the second part we apply these formulas to the…
We obtain some Bailey pairs associated with indefinite quadratic forms with the $\beta_n$ connected to a finite sum. A new general identity is given, which provides identities for $q$-hypergeometric series, including mock theta functions.
Codebooks with small maximum cross-correlation amplitudes are used to distinguish the signals from different users in CDMA communication systems. In this paper, we first study the Jacobi sums over Galois rings of arbitrary characteristics…
The zeta function of a motive over a finite field is multiplicative with respect to the direct sum of motives. It has beautiful analytic properties, as were predicted by the Weil conjectures. There is also a multiplicative zeta function,…
We prove that all algebraic bases $\beta$ allow an eventually periodic representations of the elements of $\mathbb Q(\beta)$ with a finite alphabet of digits $\mathcal A$. Moreover, the classification of bases allowing that those…
Identities involving cyclic sums of terms composed from Jacobi elliptic functions evaluated at $p$ equally shifted points on the real axis were recently found. These identities played a crucial role in discovering linear superposition…
In their study of characters of minimal affinizations of representations of orthogonal and symplectic Lie algebras, Chari and Greenstein conjectured that certain Jacobi-Trudi determinants satisfy an alternating sum formula. In this note, we…
Let $A$ be a set and $f:A\rightarrow A$ a bijective function. Necessary and sufficient conditions on $f$ are determined which makes it possible to endow $A$ with a binary operation $*$ such that $(A,*)$ is a cyclic group and $f\in…
For an odd prime $p$, let $\phi$ denote the quadratic character of the multiplicative group ${\mathbb F}_p^\times$, where ${\mathbb F}_p$ is the finite field of $p$ elements. In this paper, we will obtain evaluations of the hypergeometric…
Finite groups with very few character values are characterized. The following is the main result of this article: a finite non-abelian group has precisely four character values if and only if it is the generalized dihedral group of a…
We use a function field version of the circle method to prove that a positive proportion of elements in $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ are representable as a sum of three cubes of minimal degree from $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$, assuming a suitable form of the…
Cubic and biquadratic reciprocity have long since been referred to as "the forgotten reciprocity laws", largely since they provide special conditions that are widely considered to be unnecessary in the study of number theory. In this…
A character of a finite group having degree $n$ takes values which may be expressed as sums of $n$ or fewer roots of unity. In this note, we prove a result which describes the irreducible constituents of generalized characters on abelian…
