Abstract

top
This article considers the eta power ( 1 - q k ) b - 1 . It is proved that the coefficients of q n / n ! in this expression, as polynomials in b, exhibit equidistribution of the coefficients in the nonzero residue classes mod 5 when n = 5j+4. Other symmetries, as well as symmetries for other primes and prime powers, are proved, and some open questions are raised.
