Title: On the Hyperbolicity of Jensen Polynomials for Power Partitions.

Speaker: Arindam Roy (UNC, Charlotte)
 
When: Thursday, June 2, 2022 - 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM (IST) 

Where: Zoom

Tea or Coffee: Please bring your own.

Abstract:  

Polya established that the Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to the hyperbolicity of Jensen polynomials for the Riemann zeta function. This led to the study of Jensen polynomials for large classes of functions. Recently, Jensen polynomials for various partition functions and more generally, the Jensen polynomials for weakly holomorphic forms are considered. Their hyperbolicity was established under various conditions. In this talk we will consider the Jensen polynomials for power partitions and discuss the hyperbolicity of these Jensen polynomials

Abstract:  

 In this talk, we discuss the asymptotic behavior of the number of partitions into primes in arithmetic progressions. While the study for ordinary partitions goes back to Hardy and Ramanujan, partitions into primes were recently re-visited by Vaughan. Our error term is sharp and improves on previous known estimates in the special case of primes as parts of the partition. As an application, monotonicity of this partition function is established explicitly via an asymptotic formula.
