Ramanujan tau function information


Values of |τ(n)| for n < 16,000 with a logarithmic scale. The blue line picks only the values of n that are multiples of 121.

The Ramanujan tau function, studied by Ramanujan (1916), is the function defined by the following identity:

where q = exp(2πiz) with Im z > 0, is the Euler function, η is the Dedekind eta function, and the function Δ(z) is a holomorphic cusp form of weight 12 and level 1, known as the discriminant modular form (some authors, notably Apostol, write instead of ). It appears in connection to an "error term" involved in counting the number of ways of expressing an integer as a sum of 24 squares. A formula due to Ian G. Macdonald was given in Dyson (1972).
