These examples suggest certain underlying patterns. By expanding theta powers as a linear combination of products of theta functions, we present two strategies that will provide a unified treatment. Our approaches rely on studying the behavior of a product of two theta series under the action of the huffing operator. Some explicit criteria are given. We may use the presented method to not only verify experimentally discovered coefficient-vanishing results, but also to generate a series of general phenomena.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-08-21T13:30:58.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F27", "11B65", "11J13", "11J20" ], "keywords": [ "theta series", "general coefficient-vanishing results", "general phenomena", "explicit criteria", "sporadic coefficient-vanishing results" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 72, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
