Abstract
I discuss a variety of results involving s(n), the number of representations of n as a sum of three squares. One of my objectives is to reveal numerous interesting connections between the properties of this function and certain modular equations of degree 3 and 5. In particular, I show that follows easily from the well known Ramanujan modular equation of degree 5. Moreover, I establish new relations between s(n) and h(n), g(n), the number of representations of n by the ternary quadratic forms respectively. Finally, I propose a remarkable new identity for s(p

n)−p s(n) with p being an odd prime. This identity makes nontrivial use of the ternary quadratic forms with discriminants p
