Congruences for the Ramanujan function and generalized class numbers

چکیده

The Ramanujan τ -function satisfies well-known congruences modulo the so-called exceptional prime numbers 2, 3, 5, 7, 23, 691. In this paper we prove new congruences related to the irregular primes 131 and 593, involving generalized class numbers. As an application we obtain distribution results. We obtain a new proof of the famous 691 congruence and congruences of the related Rankin L-funtion.

Generalized Congruence Properties of the Restricted Partition Function P (n,m)

Ramanujan-type congruences for the unrestricted partition function p(n) are well known and have been studied in great detail. The existence of Ramanujan-type congruences are virtually unknown for p(n,m), the closely related restricted partition function that enumerates the number of partitions of n into exactly m parts. Let ` be any odd prime. In this paper we establish explicit Ramanujan-type ...

Congruences for Generalized Frobenius Partitions with an Arbitrarily Large Number of Colors

In his 1984 AMS Memoir, George Andrews defined the family of k–colored generalized Frobenius partition functions. These are enumerated by cφk(n) where k ≥ 1 is the number of colors in question. In that Memoir, Andrews proved (among many other things) that, for all n ≥ 0, cφ2(5n+3) ≡ 0 (mod 5). Soon after, many authors proved congruence properties for various k–colored generalized Frobenius part...

4−core Partitions and Class Numbers

Let Ct(n) denote the number of t−core partitions of n, where a partition is a t−core if none of the hook numbers of the associated Ferrers-Young diagram are multiples of t. It is well known that t−cores describe the local-global behavior of representations of many finite groups, and are important for special cases of the Ramanujan congruences for the ordinary partition function. We show that th...

Non-existence of Ramanujan Congruences in Modular Forms of Level Four

Abstract. Ramanujan famously found congruences for the partition function like p(5n + 4) ≡ 0 (mod 5). We provide a method to find all simple congruences of this type in the coefficients of the inverse of a modular form on Γ1(4) which is non-vanishing on the upper half plane. This is applied to answer open questions about the (non)-existence of congruences in the generating functions for overpar...
