Number of representations of an integer as the dot product of integer vectors

Let $r_k(n)$ denote the number of solutions in positive integers to the equation: $$n = a_1 b_1 + a_2 b_2 + \ldots + a_k b_k.$$ What estimates and/or asymptotics are available for (1) $...

the gaps between values of a positive binary quadratic form at integer points

Suppose that $s$ is a positive irrational number. Consider all possible values of the sum $x^2+sy^2$ where $x$ and $y$ are integers. These values form a set $W=\{0=w_1<w_2<\ldots\}$. Can the ...

Mock modular forms and (indefinite) quadratic forms

Define the function $$f(q,z,y) = \sum_{n \ge 0,m,l} c(n,m,l) q^n z^m y^l$$ where $c(n,m,l)$ is defined by $$ c(n,m,l) = \begin{cases} (-1)^{s+l} & \text{if } 4n - m^2 + l^2 = 2s(s+1)\\ 0 & \...

A possible variant of Zagier's one-sentence proof for Fermat's sum of two squares theorem?

Is it possible to modify Zagier's one-sentence proof of Fermat's sum of two squares theorem (see here) to prove certain non-trivial cases of Jacobi's four-square theorem (see here)? Let $p$ be a prime ...

Equidistribution of lattice points on quadratic forms without certain values

I have recently been studying some results about equidistribution of lattice points on positive definite quadratic forms $Q$ with $3$ or more variables. Concretely the article Duke and Schulze-Pillot, ...

Number of representations by the norm in a division algebra corresponding to endomorphism rings of elliptic curves

Let $E$ be a supersingular curve over a field of characteristic $p$ with endomorphism ring $\mathcal O_D$ which is a maximal order in a division ring $D$ over $Q$ ramified at $p$ and $\infty$. The ...

Bounds on the number of zeros of a quadratic form

Let $Q(x_1, \dots, x_n)$ be a non-degenerate indefinite quadratic form with integer coefficients. Let $N(Q,T)$ be the set of vectors $x=(x_1, \dots, x_n) \in {\mathbb Z}^n$ such that $|x|<T$ and $Q(...

Siegel's formula for generalized theta series with characteristics?

Siegel's formula(Siegel-Weil) directly relates the weighted sum of theta functions to Eisenstein series. (Or equivalently, the weighted sum of the cusp form is zero). I wonder if there is a ...

On question on quadratic forms in four variables

Let $F$ be a non-singular quadratic form in four variables and let $w: \mathbb{R}^4 \to \mathbb{R}$ be a non-negative compactly supported function satisfying certain suitable conditions. Set $$N(F,w,m)...
