Benford's Law For Coefficients of Modular Forms and Partition Functions
Theresa Anderson, Larry Rolen, Ruth Stoehr
Published 2010-09-03Version 1
Here we prove that Benford's law holds for coefficients of an infinite class of modular forms. Expanding the work of Bringmann and Ono on exact formulas for harmonic Maass forms, we derive the necessary asymptotics. This implies that the unrestricted partition function $p(n)$, as well as other natural partition functions, satisfy Benford's law.
