We investigate a new family of locally harmonic Maass forms which correspond to periods of modular forms. They transform like negative weight modular forms and are harmonic apart from jump singularities along infinite geodesics. Our main…

We show that signs of Fourier coefficients, on certain sub-families, determine the half-integral weight cuspidal eigenform uniquely, up to a positive constant. We also study sign change results for the product of the Fourier coefficients of…

In this paper, we study polar harmonic Maass forms of negative integral weight. Using work of Fay, we construct Poincar\'e series which span the space of such forms and show that their elliptic coefficients exhibit duality properties which…

Mock modular forms, which give the theoretical framework for Ramanujan's enigmatic mock theta functions, play many roles in mathematics. We study their role in the context of modular parameterizations of elliptic curves $E/\mathbb{Q}$. We…

We prove that Cohen's Maass wave form and Li-Ngo-Rhoades' Maass wave form are Hecke eigenforms with respect to certain Hecke operators. As a corollary, we find new identities of the $p$th coefficients of these Maass wave forms in terms of…

We consider invariant hyperfunctions associated to automorphic forms on the upper half plane. We give two interpretations of the period function of Maass forms introduced by Lewis. The first interpretation shows that the period function…

Bruinier, Funke, and Imamoglu have proved a formula for what can philosophically be called the "central $L$-value" of the modular $j$-invariant. Previously, this had been heuristically suggested by Zagier. Here, we interpret this…

For a half integral weight modular form $f$ we study the signs of the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$. If $f$ is a Hecke eigenform of level $ N$ with real Nebentypus character, and $t$ is a fixed square-free positive integer with $a(t)\neq 0$,…

For integers $k\geq 2$, we study two differential operators on harmonic weak Maass forms of weight $2-k$. The operator $\xi_{2-k}$ (resp. $D^{k-1}$) defines a map to the space of weight $k$ cusp forms (resp. weakly holomorphic modular…

We establish lower bounds for (i) the numbers of positive and negative terms and (ii) the number of sign changes in the sequence of Fourier coefficients at squarefree integers of a half-integral weight modular Hecke eigenform.

Here we study the recently introduced notion of a locally harmonic Maass form and its applications to the theory of $L$-functions. In particular, we find finite formulas for certain twisted central $L$-values of a family of elliptic curves…

In this paper, we use a regularized theta lifting to construct harmonic Maass forms corresponding to binary theta functions of weight $k \ge 2$ under the $\xi$-operator. As a result, we show that their holomorphic parts have algebraic…

We investigate the properties of Hecke operator for sesquiharmonic Maass forms. We begin by proving Hecke equivariance of the divisor lifting with respect to sesquiharmonic Mass functions, which maps an integral weight meromorphic modular…

Waldspurger's formula gives an identity between the norm of a torus period and an L-function of the twist of an automorphic representation on GL(2). For any two Hecke characters of a fixed quadratic extension, one can consider the two torus…

Let $f$ be a normalized Hecke-Maass cusp form of weight zero for the group $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$. This article presents several quantitative results about the distribution of Hecke eigenvalues of $f$. Applications to the $\Omega_{\pm}$-results…

We establish an estimate on sums of shifted products of Fourier coefficients coming from holomorphic or Maass cusp forms of arbitrary level and nebentypus. These sums are analogous to the binary additive divisor sum which has been studied…

We discuss polyharmonic Maass forms of even integer weight on PSL(2, Z)\H, which are a generalization of classical Maass forms. We explain the role of real-analytic Eisenstein series E_k(z, s) and the differential operator…

In this article, we prove non-vanishing results for $L$-functions associated to holomorphic cusp forms of half-integral weight on average (over an orthogonal basis of Hecke eigenforms). This extends a result of W. Kohnen to forms of…

Given the L-series of a half-integral weight cusp form, we construct a cohomology class with coefficients in a finite dimensional vector space in a way that parallels the Eichler cohomology in the integral weight case. We also define a lift…

Previous works have shown that certain weight $2$ newforms are $p$-adic limits of weakly holomorphic modular forms under repeated application of the $U$-operator. The proofs of these theorems originally relied on the theory of harmonic…
