In their study of the truncated sums of the classical theta functions, Andrews-Merca and Guo-Zeng posed a conjecture on truncated sums of a special case of the Jacobi triple product identity which was confirmed independently by Mao and Yee. In 2016, Chan, Ho and Mao examined the truncated series arising from two consequences of the quintuple product identity. In this paper, we establish an explicit series form with nonnegative coefficients on a new truncated sum of the Jacobi triple product identity which is stronger than the conjecture due to Andrews-Merca and Guo-Zeng by taking different truncated series and using Bailey pairs. As a corollary of our results, we obtain a new truncated sum of Jacobi's identity which implies another conjecture given by Guo and Zeng. In addition, we determine the signs of coefficients of two well-known identities derived from the quintuple product identity which can be considered as the companion results of a theorem proved by Chan, Ho and Mao.
andrew - merca和Guo-Zeng在研究经典函数的截断和时,提出了Jacobi三重积恒等式的一种特殊情况的截断和的猜想,该猜想已被Mao和Yee独立地证实。2016年,Chan, Ho和Mao研究了由五重乘积恒等式的两个结果引起的截断系列。本文采用不同的截断级数,利用Bailey对,在比Andrews-Merca和Guo-Zeng猜想更强的Jacobi三重积单位的截断和上,建立了一个非负系数的显式级数形式。作为我们的结果的一个推论,我们得到了Jacobi恒等式的一个新的截断和,它蕴涵了Guo和Zeng给出的另一个猜想。此外,我们确定了由五元积恒等式导出的两个著名恒等式的系数符号,这两个恒等式可以被认为是Chan, Ho和Mao证明的定理的伴随结果。

We introduce an extension of the standard cohomology which is characterised by maps that fail to be classical cocycles by products of simpler maps. The construction is motivated by the study of Manin's noncommutative modular symbols and of false theta functions. We use this construction to obtain a cohomological interpretation of important iterated integrals that arise in that study. In another direction, our approach gives modular counterparts to the long-studied relations among multiple zeta values.

We prove a new bound on bilinear forms with generalized Kloosterman sums by using the sum-product phenomenon in , which reached the barrier for the more general situation and complements those obtained by Kowalski, Michel, and Sawin (2020). We also establish new estimates for bilinear forms with two variables from arbitrary subsets of , which has expanded the range of obtained by Xi (2023).

Let ℓ be prime, and K be a number field containing the ℓ-th roots of unity. We use classical algebraic number theory and some analytic techniques to prove that the Steinitz classes of extensions of K ordered by relative discriminant are equidistributed among realizable classes in the ideal class group of K. For , this was proved by Kable and Wright using the deep theory of prehomogeneous vector spaces. Foster proved that Steinitz classes are uniformly distributed between realizable classes for tamely ramified elementary-m extensions using the theory of Galois modules; our approach eliminates this tameness hypothesis.

In this paper, we prove that, under a technical assumption, any semi-direct product of a p-group G with a group Φ of order prime to p can appear as the Galois group of a tower of extensions with the property that M is the maximal unramified p-extension of L, and . A consequence of this result is that any local ring admitting a surjection to , or with finite kernel can be realized as a universal everywhere unramified deformation ring.

The main aim of this paper is to investigate Greenberg's conjecture for real biquadratic fields. More precisely, we propose the following problem:
What are real biquadratic number fields k such that ? where is the 2-Iwasawa module of k and is the 2-class group of the first layer of the cyclotomic -extension of k. Moreover, we give several families of real biquadratic fields k such that is trivial or isomorphic to or , where n is a given positive integer. The reader can also find some results concerning the 2-rank of the class group of certain real triquadratic fields.

We prove explicit lower bounds for the natural density of the sets of primes p represented by a reduced form of negative discriminant D such that Siegel eigenvalues of a Cuspidal Siegel eigenforms F of degree 2 satisfy for the real numbers and . A similar result is also proved for the set of primes p represented by a reduced form of negative discriminant D such that . Analogous results are also valid if one replaces natural density by Dirichlet density. Moreover, we deal with various kinds of quantitative results concerning the comparison between the normalized Siegel eigenvalues over the primes p represented by a reduced form of negative discriminant D, of two distinct cuspidal Siegel eigenforms for the full symplectic group of degree 2 which are not Saito–Kurokawa lifts.
