Highest-weight representations of infinite dimensional Lie algebras and Hilbert schemes of points are considered, together with the applications of these concepts to partition functions, which are most useful in physics. Partition functions…

It is a classical fact that the elliptic modular functions satisfies an algebraic differential equation of order 3, and none of lower order. We show how this generalizes to Siegel modular functions of arbitrary degree. The key idea is that…

In this paper we discuss correlation function computations in massive topological Landau-Ginzburg orbifolds, extending old results of Vafa. We then apply these computations to provide further tests of the nonabelian mirrors proposal and…

We consider the degree 4 L-function associated to an automorphic representation of the symplectic group GSp(4). Starting with Beilinson's Eisenstien symbol we construct some motivic cohomology classes on the Shimura variety of GSp(4). We…

The analytic properties of automorphic L-functions have historically been obtained either through integral representations (the "Rankin-Selberg method"), or properties of the Fourier expansions of Eisenstein series (the "Langlands-Shahidi…

We obtain explicit formulas for the test vector in the Bessel model and derive the criteria for existence and uniqueness for Bessel models for the unramified, quadratic twists of the Steinberg representation \pi of GSp(4,F), where F is a…

We construct a $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function associated to the product of two families of modular forms, where the first is an ordinary (Hida) family, and the second an arbitrary universal-deformation family (without any ordinarity…

Let $Z$ be the quotient of the Siegel modular threefold $\mathcal{A}^{{\rm sa}}(2,4,8)$ which has been studied by van Geemen and Nygaard. They gave an implication that some 6-tuple $F_Z$ of theta constants which is in turn known to be a…

We use the "higher Hida theory" recently introduced by the second author to p-adically interpolate periods of non-holomorphic automorphic forms for GSp(4), contributing to coherent cohomology of Siegel threefolds in positive degrees. We…

These are the expanded notes of a mini-course of four lectures by the same title given in the workshop "p-adic aspects of modular forms" held at IISER Pune, in June, 2014. We give a brief introduction of p-adic L-functions attached to…

We formulate an explicit refinement of B\"ocherer's conjecture for Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and squarefree level, relating weighted averages of Fourier coefficients with special values of L-functions. To achieve this, we compute the…

The goal of this paper is to provide a complete and refined study of the standard $L$-functions $L(\pi,\operatorname{Std},s)$ for certain non-generic cuspidal automorphic representations $\pi$ of $G_2(\mathbb{A})$. For a cuspidal…

Let $p$ be an odd prime, $N$ a square-free odd positive integer prime to $p$, $\pi$ a $p$-ordinary cohomological irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation of $\mathrm{GSp}_4(\mathbb{A}_\mathbb{Q})$ of principal level $N$ and Iwahori…

In recent years L-functions and their analytic properties have assumed a central role in number theory and automorphic forms. In this expository article, we describe the two major methods for proving the analytic continuation and functional…

We compute the first and second moment of the spinor L-function at the central point of Siegel modular forms of large weight k with power saving error term and give applications to non-vanishing.

This is a semi-expository article concerning Langlands functoriality and Deligne's conjecture on the special values of $L$-functions. The emphasis is on symmetric power $L$-functions associated to a holomorphic cusp form, while appealing to…

In this paper we prove a Gross-Zagier type formula for the anticyclotomic p-adic L-function of an elliptic modular form f of higher weight and of multiplicative type at p. For such f we also decribe explicitely the local Galois…

We study the behaviour of automorphic L-Invariants associated to cuspidal representations of GL(2) of cohomological weight 0 under abelian base change and Jacquet-Langlands lifts to totally definite quaternion algebras. Under a standard…

We prove that if $F$ is a non-zero (possibly non-cuspidal) vector-valued Siegel modular form of any degree, then it has infinitely many non-zero Fourier coefficients which are indexed by half-integral matrices having odd, square-free (and…

In this paper, we prove Deligne's conjecture for symmetric sixth $L$-functions of Hilbert modular forms. We extend the result of Morimoto based on a different approach. We define automorphic periods associated to globally generic…
