Abstract

We consider the generating series of special cycles on A1(N)×Ag(N)\mathcal{A}_1(N)\times \mathcal{A}_g(N), with full level NN structure, valued in the cohomology of degree 2g2g. The modularity theorem of Kudla-Millson for locally symmetric spaces implies that these series are modular. When N=1N=1, the images of these loci in Ag\mathcal{A}_g are the dd-elliptic Noether-Lefschetz loci, which are conjectured to be modular. In the appendix, it is shown that the resulting modular forms are nonzero for g=2g=2 when N11N\geq 11 and N12N\neq 12.
