In this survey we give a brief introduction to, and review the progress made in the last decade in understanding the geometry of the moduli spaces A_g of principally polarized abelian varieties and its compactifications. Topics surveyed…
In this paper, we consider the versal deformations of three dimensional Lie algebras. We classify Lie algebras and study their deformations by using linear algebra techniques to study the cohomology. We will focus on how the deformations…
We show that Siegel modular forms of level \Gamma_0(p^m) are p-adic modular forms. Moreover we show that derivatives of such Siegel modular forms are p-adic. Parts of our results are also valid for vector-valued modular forms. In our…
In this paper we study the maximal extension $\Gamma_t^*$ of the subgroup $\Gamma_t$ of $\operatorname{Sp}_4 (\bq)$ which is conjugate to the paramodular group. The index of this extension is $2^{\nu(t)}$ where $\nu(t)$ is the number of…
Let S(g,N,p) be the Siegel modular variety of principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension g with a \Gamma_0(p)-level structure and a full N-level structure (where p is a prime not dividing N \geq 3 and \Gamma_0(p) is the inverse…
We describe several explicit examples of simple abelian surfaces over real quadratic fields with real multiplication and everywhere good reduction. These examples provide evidence for the Eichler-Shimura conjecture for Hilbert modular forms…
We determine the structure of the graded ring of Siegel modular forms of degree 3. It is generated by 19 modular forms, among which we identify a homogeneous system of parameters with 7 forms of weights 4, 12, 12, 14, 18, 20 and 30. We also…
Starting with a primitive Dirichlet character of conductor $N$, we construct a paramodular Siegel Eisenstein series of level $N^2$ and weight $k\geq4$. We calculate the Fourier expansion of the holomorphic Siegel modular form thus…
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…
We describe birational models and decide the rationality/unirationality of moduli spaces AA_{d} (and AA^{lev}_{d}) of (1,d)-polarized abelian surfaces (with canonical level structure, respectively) for small values of d. The projective…
Double planes branched in 6 lines give a famous example of K3 surfaces. Their moduli are well understood and related to abelian fourfolds of Weil type. We compare these two moduli interpretations and in particular divisors on the moduli…
We investigate the Tits buildings of the paramodular groups with or without canonical level structure, respectively. These give important combinatorical information about the boundary of the toroidal compactification of the moduli spaces of…
In this paper we study the non-holomorphic strict endoscopic parts of inner cohomology spaces of a modular Siegel threefold respect to local systems. First we show that there is a non-zero subspace of the strict endoscopic part such that it…
The notion of formal Siegel modular forms for an arithmetic subgroup $\Gamma$ of the symplectic group of genus $n$ is a generalization of symmetric formal Fourier-Jacobi series. Assuming an upper bound on the affine covering number of the…
We will give the graded ring of Siegel modular forms of degree two with respect to a non-split symplectic group explicitly.
A lot is known about the moduli space of parabolic bundles over curves of genus $g\geq 2$, but the lower genus cases are notably different. The goal of this article is to study the geometry of the moduli space of semistable parabolic…
We construct integral models of Shimura varieties of abelian type with parahoric level structure over odd primes. These models are \'etale locally isomorphic to corresponding local models.
We describe the moduli spaces of morphisms between polarized complex abelian varieties. The discrete invariants, derived from a Poincare' decomposition of morphisms, are the types of polarizations and of lattice homomorphisms occurring in…
We study the moduli space of solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equations with $N$ spinors on a compact Riemann surface. These moduli spaces arise in a program to define a new enumerative invariant of 3-manifolds. They are also of independent…
We calculate Tits buildings for certain arithmetic subgroups of Sp(4). These give information about the boundary of the corresponding moduli spaces of abelian surfaces. More pictures (in colour) and a summary of the results (in English) can…
