This is a survey article about Siegel modular varieties over the complex numbers. It is written mostly from the point of view of moduli of abelian varieties, especially surfaces. We cover compactification of Siegel modular varieties;…
We give an explicit conjectural formula for the motivic Euler characteristic of an arbitrary symplectic local system on the moduli space A_3 of principally polarized abelian threefolds. The main term of the formula is a conjectural motive…
In this paper, we study Siegel modular forms with extra twists. We provide conditions on the level and genus of the forms that is necessary for the existence of extra twists for Siegel modular forms. We also give explicit examples of Siegel…
In this paper we extend some results of Norman and Oort and of de Jong, and give an explicit description of the geometry of the Siegel modular threefold with paramodular level structure. We also discuss advantages and restrictions of three…
In this paper we outline the Hecke theory for Hermitian modular forms in the sense of Hel Braun for arbitrary class number of the attached imaginary-quadratic number field. The Hecke algebra turns out to be commutative. Its inert part has a…
This is a survey based on the construction of Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and 3 using invariant theory in joint work with Fabien Cl\'ery and Carel Faber.
Unlike classical modular forms, there is currently no general way to implement the computation of Siegel modular forms of arbitrary weight, level and character, even in degree two. There is however, a way to do it in a unified way. After…
We define graded hyper-algebras of vector-valued Siegel modular forms, which allow us to study tensor products of the latter. We also define vector-valued Hecke operators for Siegel modular forms at all places of ${\mathbb Q}$, acting on…
We carry out some computations of vector valued Siegel modular forms of degree two, weight (k,2) and level one. Our approach is based on Satoh's description of the module of vector-valued Siegel modular forms of weight (k, 2) and an…
We introduce a method in differential geometry to study the derivative operators of Siegel modular forms. By determining the coefficients of the invariant Levi-Civita connection on a Siegel upper half plane, and further by calculating the…
We define modular equations in the setting of PEL Shimura varieties as equations describing Hecke correspondences, and prove upper bounds on their degrees and heights. This extends known results about elliptic modular polynomials, and…
In this paper, we introduce a new kind of Siegel upper half space and consider the symplectic geometry on it explicitly under the action of the group of all holomorphic transformations of it. The results and methods will form a basis for…
We introduce a geometric formalism for studying modular forms of half-integral weight and explore some of its basic properties. Geometric Hecke operators are constructed and some basic spaces of $p$-adic forms are introduced. The $p$-adic…
We find and propose an explanation for a large variety of modularity-related symmetries in problems of 3-manifold topology and physics of 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ theories where such structures a priori are not manifest. These modular structures…
We determine the ring structure of Siegel modular forms of degree g modulo a prime p, extending Nagaoka's result in the case of degree g=2. We characterize U(p) congruences of Jacobi forms and Siegel modular forms, and surprisingly find…
We survey variety theory for modules of finite dimensional Hopf algebras, recalling some definitions and basic properties of support and rank varieties where they are known. We focus specifically on properties known for classes of examples…
In order to considering the integrality of nearly holomorphic (vector-valued) Siegel modular forms, we introduce nearly Siegel modular forms and study their integrality. We show that the integrality of nearly Siegel modular forms in terms…
Let $f$ be a genus two cuspidal Siegel modular eigenform. We prove an adelic open image theorem for the compatible system of Galois representations associated to $f$, generalising the results of Ribet and Momose for elliptic modular forms.…
We prove that the coherent cohomological dimension of the Siegel modular variety $A_{g,\Gamma}$ is at most $g(g+1)/2-2$ for $g\geq 2$. As a corollary, we show that the boundary of the compactified Siegel modular variety satisfies the…
Let ${\mathcal H}_{q}(d)$ be the Iwahori-Hecke algebra for the symmetric group, where $q$ is a primitive $l$th root of unity. In this paper we develop a theory of support varieties which detects natural homological properties such as the…
