We celebrate the 100th anniversary of Srinivasa Ramanujan's election as a Fellow of the Royal Society, which was largely based on his work with G. H. Hardy on the asymptotic properties of the partition function. After recalling this revolutionary work, marking the birth of the ‘circle method’, we present a contemporary example of its legacy in topology. We deduce the equidistribution of Hodge numbers for Hilbert schemes of suitable smooth projective surfaces. This article is part of a…

Hilbert schemes are an object arising from geometry and are closely related to physics and modular forms. Recently, there have been investigations from number theorists about the Betti numbers and…

Asymptotic equidistribution for partition statistics and topological invariants

We provide a general framework for proving asymptotic equidistribution, convexity, and logconcavity of coefficients of generating functions on arithmetic progressions. Our central tool is a variant…

Distributions on partitions arising from Hilbert schemes and hook lengths

Abstract Recent works at the interface of algebraic combinatorics, algebraic geometry, number theory and topology have provided new integer-valued invariants on integer partitions. It is natural to…

Limiting Betti distributions of Hilbert schemes on n points

Hausel and Rodriguez-Villegas (2015, Astérisque 370, 113–156) recently observed that work of Göttsche, combined with a classical result of Erdös and Lehner on integer partitions, implies that the…

The asymptotic profile of an eta-theta quotient related to entanglement entropy in string theory

In this paper we investigate a certain eta-theta quotient which appears in the partition function of entanglement entropy. Employing Wright’s circle method, we give its bivariate asymptotic profile.

Exact formulas for invariants of Hilbert schemes

A theorem of Göttsche establishes a connection between cohomological invariants of a complex projective surface S and corresponding invariants of the Hilbert scheme of n points on S. This…

An arithmetic formula for the partition function

Although there is a vast literature on the properties of p(n), typically motivated by work of Ramanujan, some of the simplest questions remain open. For example, little is known about p(n) modulo 2…
