DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/UBC_NTS/8/">
 Asymptotics of combinatorial and topological objects via modular forms</a>
 \nby Joshua Males (University of Manitoba/ PIMS) as part of UBC (online) N
 umber Theory Seminar\n\n\nAbstract\nThe use of modular forms in describing
  the asymptotic behaviour of interesting objects goes back to the inventio
 n of the Circle Method by Hardy and Ramanujan over 100 years ago. In this 
 talk\, I'll describe several results in how we can use modular forms and t
 heir relations to study newer objects\; in particular the distribution ove
 r arithmetic progressions and bias in arithmetic progressions of certain c
 ombinatorial and topological objects. Finally\, I'll talk briefly about so
 me ongoing work that describes the asymptotic behaviour of a Nahm-type sum
  which displays much more intricate behaviour than classical modular objec
 ts.\n\nParts of this talk will be based on works with various combinations
  of Kathrin Bringmann\, Giulia Cesana\, Will Craig\, Amanda Folsom\, Ken O
 no\, Larry Rolen\, and Matthias Storzer.\n\nMeeting ID: 678 4319 0638\nPas
