Congruences regarding $4n$-dimensional lattices
A sequence of integers $(a_n)_{n\geq 1}$ satisfies Gauss congruence if
$$\sum_{d\mid n}\mu(d)a_{n/d}\equiv 0\pmod{n}$$
for every $n\geq 1$. Such sequences are also called Dold sequences, Newton ...

Congruences between hypergeometric functions coming from modular forms
Consider the formal power series
$${}_2F_1(1/12,5/12;1;z)^{24}-{}_2F_1(1/12,7/12;1;z)^{24}=-z/3-z^2/2-(320293/559872)z^3-\cdots$$
It follows from a theorem on modular forms that for $p\ge5$ the ...

When are modular forms linearly independent modulo $p$?
Let $M_2(\Gamma_0(N))$ be the space of weight $2$ modular forms for $\Gamma_0(N)$ and let $f_1, \dots, f_r$ be a basis of normalized eigenforms for $M_2(\Gamma_0(N))$. Given a rational prime $p$, I'll ...

Corollaries of the halo conjecture that do not involve the eigencurve
In the theory of p-adic modular forms there is a certain construction called the Coleman-Mazur eigencurve. The spectral halo conjecture roughly states that if you remove a closed subdisc of the weight ...

Congruences of modular forms modulo other modular forms
Congruences between modular forms are certainly a big topic in number theory, maybe with
$$E_{p-1}\equiv 1 \mod p \qquad \text{for a prime }p\geq 5$$
as the easiest example. Sometimes, $p$ might be ...

Ramanujan's tau function, $691$ congruence, and $\eta(z)^{12}$
Let $q = e^{2\pi i\,z}$.
I. 24th power
The Ramanujan tau function $\tau(n)$ is given by the expansion of the Dedekind eta function $\eta(z)$'s $\text{24th}$ power. Then
$$\begin{aligned}\eta(z)^{...

Up to $2000$, $A145722(n-1) \equiv \sigma(4n-3) \pmod{5}$
A145722 is
Expansion of f(q) * f(q^5) / phi(-q^2)^2 in powers of q where f(), phi() are Ramanujan theta functions.
Using the pari program and offset 0, up to $2000$...

congruences of level 1 and level p modular forms
I've been carrying out some experiments on the computer and I noticed the following congruence phenomenon: fixing a prime $p$, it seems that any modular form over $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and of weight $k \...
