Simple lattices and free algebras of modular forms

Abstract

We study the algebras of modular forms on type IV symmetric domains for simple lattices; that is, lattices for which every Heegner divisor occurs as the divisor of a Borcherds product. For every simple lattice LL of signature (n,2)(n,2) with 3n103\leq n \leq 10, we prove that the graded algebra of modular forms for the maximal reflection subgroup of the orthogonal group of LL is freely generated. We also show that, with five exceptions, the graded algebra of modular forms for the maximal reflection subgroup of the discriminant kernel of LL is also freely generated.
