The main result of this paper is an application of the topology of the space $Q(X)$ to obtain results for the cohomology of the symmetric group on $d$ letters, $\Sigma_d$, with `twisted' coefficients in various choices of Young modules and…

Let $ G $ be a real simple linear connected Lie group of real rank one. Then, $ X := G/K $ is a Riemannian symmetric space with strictly negative sectional curvature. By the classification of these spaces, $X$ is a real/complex/quaternionic…

Recall that the moduli space of smooth (that is, stable) cubic curves is isomorphic to the quotient of the upper half plane by the group of fractional linear transformations with integer coefficients. We establish a similar result for…

In this paper, we study quadratic forms in spaces of holomorphic cusp forms. We show, conditionally, that when two quadratic forms in Hecke eigenforms share no common diagonal terms, their inner product is expected to converge to the sum of…

In this paper, we study moduli spaces of representations of certain quivers with relations. For quivers without relations and other categories of homological dimension one, a lot of information is known about the cohomology of their moduli…

We consider the cohomology of local systems on the moduli space of curves of genus 2 and the moduli space of abelian surfaces. We give an explicit formula for the Eisenstein cohomology and a conjectural formula for the endoscopic…

In this paper, we use techniques of Conrey, Farmer and Wallace to find spaces of modular forms $S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ where all of the eigenspaces have Hecke eigenvalues defined over $\F_p$, and give a heuristic indicating that these are all…

We construct models for the classifying spaces of coabelian subgroups of right-angled Coxeter groups as homotopy orbit spaces of real moment-angle complexes, generalizing well-known models for the classifying space of a right-angled Coxeter…

We investigate low degree rational cohomology groups of smooth compactifications of moduli spaces of curves with level structures. In particular, we determine $H^k(\sgbar, \Q)$ for $g \ge 2$ and $k \le 3$, where $\sgbar$ denotes the moduli…

Let $\mathscr{S}_k^+(\cn,\Phi)$ denote the space generated by Hilbert modular newforms (over a fixed totally real field $K$) of weight $k$, level $\cn$ and Hecke character $\Phi$. We show how to decompose $\mathscr{S}_k^+(\cn,\Phi)$ into…

We study the locus of smooth hypersurfaces inside the Hilbert scheme of a smooth projective complex variety. In the spirit of scanning, we construct a map to a continuous section space of a projective bundle, and show that it induces an…

For $g\ge 2$ and $n\ge 0$, let $\mathcal{H}_{g,n}\subset \mathcal{M}_{g,n}$ denote the complex moduli stack of $n$-marked smooth hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$. A normal crossings compactification of this space is provided by the theory…

We show that the systems of Hecke eigenvalues occurring in the spaces of Siegel modular forms (mod p) of fixed dimension g, fixed level N, and varying weight, are the same as the systems occurring in the spaces of Siegel cusp forms with the…

The cohomology theory known as Tmf, for "topological modular forms," is a universal object mapping out to elliptic cohomology theories, and its coefficient ring is closely connected to the classical ring of modular forms. We extend this to…

In this work, we set up a theory of p-adic modular forms over Shimura curves over totally real fields which allows us to consider also non-integral weights. In particular, we define an analogue of the sheaves of k-th invariant differentials…

Hecke expected that an explicit set of theta series obtained from maximal orders of the definite quaternion algebra over Q which is ramified at a prime N will be a basis of the space of holomorphic modular forms of weight 2 and level N.…

We give coefficient formulas for antisymmetric vector-valued cusp forms with rational Fourier coefficients for the Weil representation associated to a finite quadratic module. The forms we construct always span all cusp forms in weight at…

We study functions introduced by Knopp and complete them to non-holomorphic bimodular forms of positive integral weight related to indefinite binary quadratic forms. We investigate further properties of our completions, which in turn…

Let $N>1$ be an integer, and let $\Gamma = \Gamma_0 (N) \subset \SL_4 (\Z)$ be the subgroup of matrices with bottom row congruent to $(0,0,0,*)\mod N$. We compute $H^5 (\Gamma; \C) $ for a range of $N$, and compute the action of some Hecke…

We compute the space of Poisson traces on a classical W-algebra modulo an arbitrary central character, i.e., linear functionals on such an algebra invariant under Hamiltonian derivations. This space identifies with the top cohomology of the…
