Classical results on the classification of reflections in an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ imply that if the graded algebra of modular forms $M_*(\Gamma)$ is freely generated, then $\Gamma$ must be an arithmetic subgroup of either the…
We study the structure of the category of graded, connected, countable-dimensional, commutative and cocommutative Hopf algebras over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p$. Every $p$-torsion object in this category is uniquely a direct…
One of the main open problems in the theory of automorphic products is to classify reflective modular forms. In [Sch06] Scheithauer classified strongly reflective modular forms of singular weight on lattices of prime level. In this paper we…
We complete the program indicated by the Ansatz of D'Hoker and Phong in genus ~4 by proving the uniqueness of the restriction to Jacobians of the weight 8 Siegel cusp forms satisfying the Anstaz. We prove $\dim [\Gamma_4(1,2),8]_0=2$ and…
Let $\Gamma_n(\mathcal{\scriptstyle{O}}_\mathbb{K})$ denote the Hermitian modular group of degree $n$ over an imaginary-quadratic number field $\mathbb{K}$. In this paper we determine its maximal discrete extension in $SU(n,n;\mathbb{C})$,…
Let $\vartheta := \frac{-1+\sqrt{5}}{2}$ be the golden ratio. A golden lattice is an even unimodular $\Z[\vartheta ]$-lattice of which the Hilbert theta series is an extremal Hilbert modular form. We construct golden lattices from extremal…
A main goal in lattice theory is the construction of dense lattices. Most of the remarkable dense lattices in small dimensions have an additional symmetry, they are modular, i.e. similar to their dual lattice. Extremal lattices are densest…
In a letter to Tate, Serre proves that the systems of Hecke eigenvalues given by modular forms (mod p) are the same as the ones given by locally constant functions on an adelic double coset space constructed from the endomorphism algebra of…
Let $\mathcal{W}(b)$ be a class of free Lie conformal algebras of rank $2$ with $\mathbb{C}[\partial]$-basis ${L,H}$ and relations \begin{eqnarray*} [L_\lambda L]=(\partial+2\lambda)L,\ \ [L_\lambda H]=\big(\partial+(1-b)\lambda\big)H, \ \…
For a certain family of complete modular lattices, we prove a Jordan--H\"older--Scheier-like" theorem with no assumptions on cardinality or well-orderedness. This family includes both lattices which are both join- and meet-continuous, as…
In [14] Hemmer conjectures that the module of fixed points for the symmetric group $\Sigma_m$ of a Specht module for $\Sigma_n$ (with $n>m$), over a field of positive characteristic $p$, has a Specht series, when viewed as a…
Fix a poset $P$ and a natural number $n$. For various commutative local rings $\Lambda$, each of Loewy length $n$, consider the category $\textrm{sub}_\Lambda P$ of $\Lambda$-linear submodule representations of $P$. We give a criterion for…
We describe the construction of vector valued modular forms transforming under a given congruence representation of the modular group SL$(\bold Z)$ in terms of theta series. We apply this general setup to obtain closed and easily computable…
We present a new flavor of TAF-type (co)homology theories, which are p-local of height two and based on the isometry group of the odd unimodular hermitian lattice of signature (1,1) over the Gaussian integers. Using a suitable family of…
We propose an algebraic definition of the space of l-new mod-p modular forms for Gamma0(Nl) in the case that l is prime to N, which naturally generalizes to a notion of newforms modulo p in squarefree level. We use this notion of newforms…
We construct a ring of meromorphic Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and level 5, with singularities supported on an arrangement of Humbert surfaces, which is generated by four singular theta lifts of weights 1, 1, 2, 2 and their Jacobian.…
We obtain necessary and sufficient conditions to determine the existence of presymplectic forms of a given rank on all almost abelian Lie algebras. We also study the moduli space of presymplectic forms (this is the set of all closed 2-forms…
We study the algebras of symmetric Hilbert modular forms of even weight for $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$, considering them as modular forms for the orthogonal group of the lattice with signature (2,2). Comparing the volume of the corresponding…
With any integral lattice \Lambda in n-dimensional euclidean space we associate an elementary abelian 2-group I(\lambda) whose elements represent parts of the dual lattice that are similar to \Lambda. There are corresponding involutions on…
We investigate spectral conditions on Hermitian matrices of roots of unity. Our main results are conjecturally sharp upper bounds on the number of residue classes of the characteristic polynomial of such matrices modulo ideals generated by…
