We prove several dimension formulas for spaces of scalar-valued Siegel modular forms of degree $2$ with respect to certain congruence subgroups of level $4$. In case of cusp forms, all modular forms considered originate from cuspidal…

This article is a research exposition based on the author's talk at the International Colloquium on Automorphic Representations and L-Functions, 2012, held at TIFR, Mumbai. We consider some special cases of the following question: when is a…

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…

Let $p$ be a prime, and let $\Gamma=\Sp_g(\Z)$ be the Siegel modular group of genus $g$. We study $p$-adic families of zeta functions and Siegel modular forms. $L$-functions of Siegel modular forms are described in terms of motivic…

We prove the existence of Euler systems for adjoint modular Galois representations using deformations of Galois representations coming from Hilbert modular forms and relate them to $p$-adic $L$-functions under a conjectural formula for the…

Analytic continuation and functional equation of a Dirichlet series constructed from two (not necessarily cuspidal) holomorphic modular forms is discussed, where either weights of the modular forms or characters are not necessarily equal to…

We prove an explicit integral representation -- involving the pullback of a suitable Siegel Eisenstein series -- for the twisted standard $L$-function associated to a holomorphic vector-valued Siegel cusp form of degree $n$ and arbitrary…

We prove several results on the distribution of values of $L$-functions at the edge of the critical strip, by constructing and studying a large class of random Euler products. Among new applications, we study families of symmetric power…

We give a full description of the functions $F$ of degree 2 and conductor 1 in the general framework of the extended Selberg class. This is performed by means of a new numerical invariant $\chi_F$, which is easily computed from the data of…

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…

The purpose of this article is to generalize some results of Vatsal on studying the special values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions in an anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_{p}$-extension. Let $g$ be a cuspidal Hilbert modular form of parallel weight…

The object of this work is the spinor L-function of degree 3 and certain degeneration related to the functoriality principle. We study liftings of automorphic forms on the pair of symplectic groups $(\text{GSp}(2),\text{GSp}(4))$ to…

We describe a practical method for finding an L-function without first finding the associated underlying object. The procedure involves using the Euler product and the approximate functional equation in a new way. No use is made of the…

The Rankin convolution type Dirichlet series $D_{F,G}(s)$ of Siegel modular forms $F$ and $G$ of degree two, which was introduced by Kohnen and the second author, is computed numerically for various $F$ and $G$. In particular, we prove that…

We define L-functions for meromorphic modular forms that are regular at cusps, and use them to: (i) find new relationships between Hurwitz class numbers and traces of singular moduli, (ii) establish predictions from the physics of…

Many important analytic statements about automorphic forms, such as the analytic continuation of certain L-functions, rely on the well-known rapid decay of K-finite cusp forms on Siegel sets. We extend this here to prove a more general…

In this paper we explicitly compute mod-l Galois representations associated to modular forms. To be precise, we look at cases with l<=23 and the modular forms considered will be cusp forms of level 1 and weight up to 22. We present the…

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 prove an equidistribution statement for the Satake parameters of the local representations attached to Siegel cusp forms of degree $2$ of increasing level and weight, counted with a certain arithmetic weight. We then apply this to…

The moduli space of principally polarized abelian surfaces is parametrized by three Igusa functions. In this article we investigate a new way to evaluate these functions by using Siegel Eisenstein series. We explain how to compute the…
