We compare the dimensions of the irreducible Sp(2g,K)-modules over a field K of characteristic p constructed by Gow with the dimensions of the irreducible Sp(2g,F_p)-modules that appear in the first approximation to representations of…

In this article, we distinguish Siegel cuspidal eigenforms of degree two on the full symplectic group from the signs of their Hecke eigenvalues. To establish our theorem, we obtain a result towards simultaneous sign changes of eigenvalues…

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…

Given an irreducible representation of $SL_2(F_q)$ for an odd prime $q\geq 5$, we find the dimension of the space of cusp forms with respect to the full modular group taking values in the representation space. The dimension equals the…

We prove that a Siegel cusp form of degree 2 for the full modular group is determined by its set of Fourier coefficients a(S) with 4 det(S) ranging over odd squarefree integers. As a key step to our result, we also prove that a classical…

We study some explicit Siegel modular forms from Weil representations. For the classical theta group $\Gamma_m(1,2)$ with $m > 1$, there are some eighth roots of unity associated with these modular forms, as noted in the works of Andrianov,…

Half-integral weight modular forms are naturally viewed as automorphic forms on the so-called metaplectic covering of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbf{A}_{\mathbf{Q}})$ -- a central extension by the roots of unity $\mu_2$ in $\mathbf{Q}$. For…

We analyze CP symmetry in symplectic modular-invariant supersymmetric theories. We show that for genus $g\ge 3$ the definition of CP is unique, while two independent possibilities are allowed when $g\le 2$. We discuss the transformation…

We address the problem of the determination of the images of the Galois representations attached to genus 2 Siegel cusp forms of level 1 having multiplicity one. These representations are symplectic. We prove that the images are as large as…

We prove a formula of Petersson's type for Fourier coefficients of Siegel cusp forms of degree 2 with respect to congruence subgroups, and as a corollary, show upper bound estimates of individual Fourier coefficient. The method in this…

We show how one can use the representation theory of ternary quartics to construct all vector-valued Siegel modular forms and Teichm\"uller modular forms of degree 3. The relation between the order of vanishing of a concomitant on the locus…

We give new examples of weight three cusp forms on noncongruence subgroups of SL(2, Z) whose Scholl representation is modular and which satisfy three term Atkin-Swinnerton-Dyer relations.

Deligne proved that the weights of Siegel modular forms on any congruence subgroup of the Siegel modular group of genus g>1 must be integral or half integral. We give a different proof for this. It uses Mennicke's result that subgroups of…

We investigate the norm of a degree 2 Siegel modular form of asymptotically large weight whose argument is restricted to the 3-dimensional subspace of its imaginary part. On average over Saito-Kurokawa lifts an asymptotic formula is…

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…

We prove (under certain assumptions) the irreducibility of the limit $\sigma_2$ of a sequence of irreducible essentially self-dual Galois representations $\sigma_k: G_{\mathbf{Q}} \to \mathrm{GL}_4(\overline{\mathbf{Q}}_p)$ (as $k$…

We give alternative computations of the Schur multiplier of $Sp(2g,\mathbb Z/D\mathbb Z)$, when $D$ is divisible by 4 and $g\geq 4$: a first one using $K$-theory arguments based on the work of Barge and Lannes and a second one based on the…

For $g=8,12,16$ and $24$, there is a nonzero alternating $g$-multilinear form on the ${\rm Leech}$ lattice, unique up to a scalar, which is invariant by the orthogonal group of ${\rm Leech}$. The harmonic Siegel theta series built from…

We provide a family of representations of GL(2n) over a p-adic field that admit a non-vanishing linear functional invariant under the symplectic group (i.e. representations that are Sp(2n)- distinguished). While our result generalizes a…

We classify the irreducible, admissible, smooth, genuine mod p representations of the metaplectic double cover of SL(2,F), where F is a p-adic field and p is odd. We show, using a generalized Satake transform, that each such representation…
