Description
In this talk I will explain how to realize some powers of the Dedekind eta function as a trace formula via different quantum coordinate algebras associated to semi-simple Lie algebras. If time permits, I will mention several perspectives, including relations to the Lehmer's conjecture on Ramanujan's tau function, the quantum dilogarithms, etc…
