%N Ramanujan's tau function (or Ramanujan numbers, or tau numbers).
%C Coefficients of the cusp form of weight 12 for the full modular group.
%C It is conjectured that tau(n) is never zero (this has been verified for n < 816212624008487344127999, see the Derickx, van Hoeij, Zeng reference).
%C M. J. Hopkins mentions that the only known primes p for which tau(p) == 1 (mod p) are 11, 23 and 691, that it is an open problem to decide if there are infinitely many such p and that no others are known below 35000. Simon Plouffe has now searched up to tau(314747) and found no other examples. - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Mar 25 2007
%C Number 1 of the 74 eta-quotients listed in Table I of Martin (1996).
%C With Dedekind's eta function and the discriminant Delta one has eta(z)^24 = Delta(z)/(2*Pi)^12 = Sum_{m >= 1} tau(m)*q^m, with q = exp(2*Pi*i*z), and z in the complex upper half plane, where i is the imaginary unit. Delta is the eigenfunction of the Hecke operator T_n (n >= 1) with eigenvalue tau(n): T_n Delta = tau(n) Delta. From this the formula for tau(m)*tau(n) given below in the formula section follows. See, e.g., the Koecher-Krieg reference, Lemma and Satz, p. 212. Or the Apostol reference, eq. (3) on p. 114 and the first part of section 6.13 on p. 131. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Jan 26 2016
%C For the functional equation satisfied by the Dirichlet series F(s), Re(s) > 7, of a(n) see the Hardy reference, p. 173, (10.9.4). It is (2*Pi)^(-s) * Gamma(s) * F(s) = (2*Pi)^(s-12) * Gamma(12-s) * F(12-s). This is attributed to J. R. Wilton, 1929, on p. 185. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Feb 08 2017
