We describe a computation of rational points on genus 3 hyperelliptic curves C defined over Q whose Jacobians have Mordell-Weil rank 1. Using the method of Chabauty and Coleman, we present and implement an algorithm in Sage to compute the zero locus of two Coleman integrals and analyze the finite set of points cut out by the vanishing of these integrals. We run the algorithm on approximately 17,000 curves from a forthcoming database of genus 3 hyperelliptic curves and discuss some interesting examples where the zero set includes global points not found in C(Q).

Half-integer weight Hecke operators and their distinct properties play a major role in the theory surrounding partition numbers and Dedekind's eta-function. Generalizing the work of Ono in [K. Ono, The partition function and Hecke operators, Adv. Math. 228 (2011) 527-534], here we obtain closed formulas for the Hecke images of all negative powers of the eta-function. These formulas are generated through the use of Faber polynomials. In addition, congruences for a large class of powers of Ramanujan's Deltafunction are obtained in a corollary. We further exhibit a fast calculation for many large values of vector partition functions.
