Some Properties And Applications Of Spaces Of Modular Forms With Eta-Multiplier, Cuyler Daniel Warnock
Some Properties And Applications Of Spaces Of Modular Forms With Eta-Multiplier, Cuyler Daniel Warnock
Theses and Dissertations
This dissertation considers two topics. In the first part of the dissertation, we prove the existence of fourteen congruences for the $p$-core partition function of the form given by Garvan in \cite{G1}. Different from the congruences given by Garvan, each of the congruences we give yield infinitely many congruences of the form $$a_p(\ell\cdot p^{t+1} \cdot n + p^t \cdot k - \delta_p) \equiv 0 \pmod \ell.$$ For example, if $t \geq 0$ and $\sfrac{m}{n}$ is the Jacobi symbol, then we prove $$a_7(7^t \cdot n - 2) \equiv 0 \pmod 5, \text{ \ \ if $\bfrac{n}{5} = 1$ and $\bfrac{n}{7} = …
Pentagonal Extensions Of The Rationals Ramified At A Single Prime, Pablo Miguel Rodriguez
Pentagonal Extensions Of The Rationals Ramified At A Single Prime, Pablo Miguel Rodriguez
Theses and Dissertations
In this thesis, we define a certain group of order 160, which we call a hyperpentagonal group, and we prove that every totally real D5-extension of the rationals ramified at only one prime is contained in a hyperpentagonal extension of the rationals. This generalizes a result of Doud and Childers (originally conjectured by Wong) that every totally real S3 extension of the rationals ramified at only one prime is contained in an S4 extension.
Divisors Of Modular Parameterizations Of Elliptic Curves, Jonathan Reid Hales
Divisors Of Modular Parameterizations Of Elliptic Curves, Jonathan Reid Hales
Theses and Dissertations
The modularity theorem implies that for every elliptic curve E /Q there exist rational maps from the modular curve X_0(N) to E, where N is the conductor of E. These maps may be expressed in terms of pairs of modular functions X(z) and Y(z) that satisfy the Weierstrass equation for E as well as a certain differential equation. Using these two relations, a recursive algorithm can be constructed to calculate the q - expansions of these parameterizations at any cusp. These functions are algebraic over Q(j(z)) and satisfy modular polynomials where each of the coefficient functions are rational functions in …
Identities For Partitions Of N With Parts From A Finite Set, Acadia Larsen
Identities For Partitions Of N With Parts From A Finite Set, Acadia Larsen
Theses and Dissertations
We show for a prime power number of parts m that the first differences of partitions into at most m parts can be expressed as a non-negative linear combination of partitions into at most m – 1 parts. To show this relationship, we combine a quasipolynomial construction of p(n,m) with a new partition identity for a finite number of parts. We prove these results by providing combinatorial interpretations of the quasipolynomial of p(n,m) and the new partition identity. We extend these results by establishing conditions for when partitions of n with parts coming from …
Problem Book On Higher Algebra And Number Theory, Ryanto Putra
Problem Book On Higher Algebra And Number Theory, Ryanto Putra
Theses and Dissertations
This book is an attempt to provide relevant end-of-section exercises, together with their step-by-step solutions, to Dr. Zieschang's classic class notes Higher Algebra and Number Theory. It's written under the notion that active hands-on working on exercises is an important part of learning, whereby students would see the nuance and intricacies of a math concepts which they may miss from passive reading. The problems are selected here to provide background on the text, examples that illuminate the underlying theorems, as well as to fill in the gaps in the notes.
Proven Cases Of A Generalization Of Serre's Conjecture, Jonathan H. Blackhurst
Proven Cases Of A Generalization Of Serre's Conjecture, Jonathan H. Blackhurst
Theses and Dissertations
In the 1970's Serre conjectured a correspondence between modular forms and two-dimensional Galois representations. Ash, Doud, and Pollack have extended this conjecture to a correspondence between Hecke eigenclasses in arithmetic cohomology and n-dimensional Galois representations. We present some of the first examples of proven cases of this generalized conjecture.
