Let f be a normalized Hecke eigenform of weight k for the full modular group S L 2 (ℤ). In this paper, we obtain the asymptotic of higher moments of general divisor functions associated to the Fourier coefficients of Rankin–Selberg L-functions R (s , f × f) , supported at the integers represented by primitive integral positive-definite binary quadratic forms (reduced forms) of a fixed discriminant D < 0. We improve previous results in the case when the reduced form is given by (x 1 , x 2) = x 1 2 + x 2 2 . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let f ∈ S k (Γ 0 (N)) be a normalized Hecke eigenforms of integral weight k and level N ≥ 1 . In the article, we establish the asymptotics of power moment associated to the sequences { λ f ⊗ f ⊗ f (Q (x ̲)) } Q ∈ S D , x ̲ ∈ Z 2 and { λ f ⊗ sym 2 f (Q (x ̲)) } Q ∈ S D , x ̲ ∈ Z 2 where S D denotes the set of inequivalent primitive integral positive-definite binary quadratic forms (reduced forms) of fixed discriminant D < 0. As a consequence, we prove results concerning the behaviour of sign changes associated to these sequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we establish an average behaviour of the Fourier coefficients of the Hecke eigenforms supported at the integers represented by any primitive integral positive definite binary quadratic form of fixed discriminant D < 0 when the class number h (D) = 1 . We also obtain a quantitative result for the number of sign changes of the sequence of Fourier coefficients a(n) of the Hecke eigenforms, where n is represented by any primitive integral positive definite binary quadratic form of fixed discriminant D < 0 when the class number h (D) = 1 in the interval (x, 2x], for sufficiently large x.

Let f and g be two distinct primitive holomorphic cusp forms of even integral weights k 1 and k 2 for the full modular group Γ = S L (2 , Z) , respectively. Denote by λ f (n) and λ g (n) the nth normalized Fourier coefficients of f and g, respectively. And set Q (x) a primitive integral positive-definite binary quadratic form of fixed discriminant D < 0 with the class number h (D) = 1 . In this paper, we establish a lower bound for the analytic density of the set { p : p = Q (x) for some x ∈ Z 2 , λ f (p i) λ f (p j) < λ g (p i) λ g (p j) } , where j ⩾ 1 , 0 ⩽ i ⩽ j are any fixed integers. Furthermore, we also consider the similar problem concerning the linear combinations of λ f (p j) and λ g (p j) in a given interval supported on the binary quadratic form Q (x) . Similar problems for triple product L-functions are also studied. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article, we prove a result concerning the infinitude of square-free integers represented by a class of polynomials in two variables. More precisely, we prove that infinitely many square-free positive integers are represented by a primitive integral positive-definite binary quadratic form of a given discriminant D. We obtain our result by deriving an asymptotic formula for the summatory function associated to it using some known L-functions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let λ f (n) and λ g (n) be the normalized n th -Fourier coefficient of distinct Hecke eigenforms f and g of integral weight for the full modular group, respectively, and Q (x ̲) is a primitive integral positive-definite binary quadratic form of fixed discriminant D < 0 with the class number h (D) = 1. We establish a lower bound for the analytic density of the set { p : p = Q (x ̲) for some x ̲ ∈ ℤ 2 and λ f (p m) < λ g (p m) } for each fixed m ∈ ℕ. With the above notation, we also obtain a lower bound for the analytic density of the set { p : p = Q (x ̲) for some x ̲ ∈ ℤ 2 and λ f 2 (p m) < λ g 2 (p m) } for each fixed m ∈ ℕ. As a consequence, we obtain a deterministic criterion for the equality of two Hecke eigenforms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let G be an additive finite abelian group and Γ ⊂ End (G) be a subset of the endomorphism group of G. A sequence S = g 1 · ... · g ℓ over G is a (Γ -)weighted zero-sum sequence if there are γ 1 , ... , γ ℓ ∈ Γ such that γ 1 (g 1) + ... + γ ℓ (g ℓ) = 0 . We construct transfer homomorphisms from norm monoids (of Galois algebraic number fields with Galois group Γ ) and from monoids of positive integers, represented by binary quadratic forms, to monoids of weighted zero-sum sequences. Then we study algebraic and arithmetic properties of monoids of weighted zero-sum sequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

We systematically investigate the expressions and congruences for both a one-parameter family {Gn(x)} as well as a two-parameter family {Gn(r, m)} of sequences. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let $ \{S_n\} $ be the Apéry-like sequence given by $ S_n = \sum_{k = 0}^n\binom nk\binom{2k}k\binom{2n-2k}{n-k} $. We show that for any odd prime $ p $, $ \sum_{n = 1}^{p-1}\frac {nS_n}{8^n}{\equiv} (1-(-1)^{\frac{p-1}2})p^2\ (\text{ mod}\ {p^3}) $. Let $ \{Q_n\} $ be the Apéry-like sequence given by $ Q_n = \sum_{k = 0}^n\binom nk(-8)^{n-k}\sum_{r = 0}^k\binom kr^3 $. We establish many congruences concerning $ Q_n $. For an odd prime $ p $, we also deduce congruences for $ \sum_{k = 0}^{p-1}\binom{2k}k^3\frac 1{64^k}\ (\text{ mod}\ {p^3}) $, $ \sum_{k = 0}^{p-1}\binom{2k}k^3\frac 1{64^k(k+1)^2}\ (\text{ mod}\ {p^2}) $ and $ \sum_{k = 0}^{p-1}\binom{2k}k^3\frac 1{64^k(2k-1)}\ (\text{ mod}\ p) $, and pose lots of conjectures on congruences involving binomial coefficients and Apéry-like numbers.

We show that the Liouville function \lambda changes sign infinitely often on n^2+ d for any non-zero integer d. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this methodological paper, we first review the classic cubic Diophantine equation a³ + b³ + c³ = d³, and consider the specific class of solutions q1³ + q2² + q3³ = q4³ with each qi being a binary quadratic form. Next we turn our attention to the familiar sums of powers of the first n positive integers, Sk = 1k+2k+· · ·+nk, and express the squares Sk², Sm², and the product SkSm as a linear combination of power sums. These expressions, along with the above quadratic-form solution for the cubic equation, allows one to generate an infinite number of relations of the form Q1³ + Q2³ + Q3³ = Q4³, with each Qi being a linear combination of power sums. Also, we briefly consider the quadratic Diophantine equations a² +b² +c² = d² and a² +b² = c², and give a family of corresponding solutions Q1² + Q2² + Q3² = Q4² and Q1² + Q2² = Q3² in terms of sums of powers of integers.

We consider the quadratic form x²+mxy+ny², where |m²-4n| is a prime number. Under the assumption that a particular, small, finite set of integers is representable, we determine all integers representable by this quadratic form. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Let a , b , c be any positive integers such that c | a b and d i ± is a square free positive integer of the form d i ± = a 2 k b 2 l ± i c m where k , l ≥ m and i = 1 , 2. The main focus of this paper is to find the fundamental solution of the equation x 2 − d i ± y 2 = 1 , with the help of the continued fraction of d i ± . We also obtain all the positive solutions of the equations x 2 − d i ± y 2 = ± 1 and x 2 − d i ± y 2 = ± 4 by means of the Fibonacci and Lucas sequences. Furthermore, in this work, we derive some algebraic relations on the Pell form F d i ± ( x , y ) = x 2 − d i ± y 2 including cycle, proper cycle, reduction and proper automorphism of it. We also determine the integer solutions of the Pell equation F Δ d i ± ( x , y ) = 1 in terms of d i ±. We extend all the results of the papers [3, 10, 27, 37]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Dirichlet's version of Gauss's reduction theory for indefinite binary quadratic forms includes a map from Gauss-reduced forms to strings of natural numbers. It attaches to a form the minimal period of the continued fraction of a quadratic irrationality associated with the form. When Zagier developed his own reduction theory, parallel to Dirichlet's, he omitted an analogue of this map. We define a new map on Zagier-reduced forms that serves as this analogue. We also define a map from the set of Gauss-reduced forms into the set of Zagier-reduced forms that gives a near-embedding of the structure of Gauss's reduction theory into that of Zagier's. From this perspective, Zagier-reduction becomes a refinement of Gauss-reduction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this article we estimate the number of integers up to X which can be properly represented by a positive-definite, binary, integral quadratic form of small discriminant. This estimate follows from understanding the vector of signs that arises from computing the Legendre symbol of small integers n at multiple primes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
