Ramanujan-Petersson conjecture  

Definition

  • In mathematics, the Ramanujan conjecture, due to Srinivasa Ramanujan (1916, p. 176), states that Ramanujan's tau function given by the Fourier coefficients τ(n) of the cusp form Δ(z) of weight 12
    where , satisfies
    when p is a prime number. The generalized Ramanujan conjecture or Ramanujan–Petersson conjecture, introduced by Petersson (1930), is a generalization to other modular forms or automorphic forms.
