Abstract

In 1918, Hardy and Ramanujan made a breakthrough by developing the circle method to deduce an asymptotic formula for the partition function $p(n)$, which was later refined by Rademacher in 1937 to produce an absolutely convergent series representation for $p(n)$. Since then, Rademacher-type exact formulas for various partition functions have been investigated by many mathematicians. The concept of overpartitions was introduced by Lovejoy and Corteel in 2004. Kim, in 2010, studied an overpartition analogue of cubic partitions, termed as cubic overpartitions. The main objective of this paper is to establish a Rademacher-type exact formula for cubic overpartitions and, as an application, to derive an explicit error term that leads to their log-concavity. Furthermore, applying a result of Griffin, Ono, Rolen, and Zagier, we establish higher-order Turán inequalities for cubic overpartitions. In addition, we obtain log-subadditivity and generalized log-concavity properties for cubic overpartitions inspired by the work of Bessenrodt-Ono and DeSalvo-Pak on the ordinary partition function.

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
