Satake (1966) reformulated the Ramanujan–Petersson conjecture in terms of automorphic representations for GL(2) as saying that the local components of automorphic representations lie in the principal series, and suggested this condition as a generalization of the Ramanujan–Petersson conjecture to automorphic forms on other groups. Another ...
Its authors have divided Elementary Number Theory, Group Theory and Ramanujan Graphs into four chapters. The first of these provides background in graph theory, including material on the girth of graphs (the length of the shortest cycle), on graph coloring, and on the use of the probabilistic method to prove the existence of graphs for which both the girth and the number of colors needed are ...
See Winnie Li's survey on Ramanujan's conjecture and other aspects of number theory relevant to these results. [ 5 ] Lubotzky , Phillips and Sarnak [ 2 ] and independently Margulis [ 6 ] showed how to construct an infinite family of ( p + 1 ) {\displaystyle (p+1)} -regular Ramanujan graphs, whenever p {\displaystyle p} is a prime number and p ...
Srinivasa Ramanujan first discovered that the partition function has nontrivial patterns in modular arithmetic, now known as Ramanujan's congruences. For instance, whenever the decimal representation of n ends in the digit 4 or 9, the number of partitions of n will be divisible by 5.
Lafforgue's theorem implies the Ramanujan–Petersson conjecture that if an automorphic form for GL n (F) has central character of finite order, then the corresponding Hecke eigenvalues at every unramified place have absolute value 1.
Srinivasa Ramanujan Aiyangar [a] (22 December 1887 – 26 April 1920) was an Indian mathematician.Often regarded as one of the greatest mathematicians of all time, though he had almost no formal training in pure mathematics, he made substantial contributions to mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions, including solutions to mathematical problems then ...

George Andrews [14] showed that several of Ramanujan's fifth order mock theta functions are equal to quotients β Θ(π) / θ(π) β where θ(π) is a modular form of weight β 1 / 2 β and Θ(π) is a theta function of an indefinite binary quadratic form, and Dean Hickerson [15] proved similar results for seventh order mock theta ...
