In this paper, we consider $L$-functions of modular forms of weight 3, which are products of the Jacobi theta series, and express their special values at $s=3$, $4$ in terms of special values of Kamp\'e de F\'eriet hypergeometric functions.…

Recent work of Pritsker defines and studies an areal version of the Mahler measure. We further explore this function with a particular focus on the case where its value is small, as this is most relevant to Lehmer's conjecture. In this…

In this note, we study the arithmetic nature of values of modular functions, meromorphic modular forms and meromorphic quasi-modular forms with respect to arbitrary congruence subgroups, that have algebraic Fourier coefficients. This…

We present an upper bound for the height of the mixed sparse resultant, defined as the logarithm of the maximum modulus of its coefficients. We obtain a similar estimate for its Mahler measure.

We analyze the moduli-space metric in the static non-Abelian charge-two sector of the Moyal-deformed CP^1 sigma model in 1+2 dimensions. After carefully reviewing the commutative results of Ward and Ruback, the noncommutative K"ahler…

We consider a version of height on polynomial spaces defined by the integral over the normalized area measure on the unit disk. This natural analog of Mahler's measure arises in connection with extremal problems for Bergman spaces. It…

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…

This article starts a computational study of congruences of modular forms and modular Galois representations modulo prime powers. Algorithms are described that compute the maximum integer modulo which two monic coprime integral polynomials…

We explicitly evaluate a special type of multiple Dirichlet $L$-values at positive integers in two different ways: One approach involves using symmetric functions, while the other involves using a generating function of the values. Equating…

We consider a family S=S(a) of 2-valued transformations of special form on the segment [0,1] with measure $\mu=\int p(x) d\lambda$, which is absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure $\lambda$. We endow S with a set of…

We generalize the modular invariance approach to include the half-integral weight modular forms. Accordingly the modular group should be extended to its metaplectic covering group for consistency. We introduce the well-defined half-integral…

In a recent paper the team of Cogdell, Jorgenson and Smajlovi\'c develop infinite series representations for the logarithmic Mahler measure of a complex linear form, with 4 or more variables. We establish the case of 3 variables, by…

A thorough analysis is made of the Fourier coefficients for vector-valued modular forms associated to three-dimensional irreducible representations of the modular group. In particular, the following statement is verified for all but a…

We prove an identity relating Mahler measures of a certain family of non-tempered polynomials to those of tempered polynomials. Evaluations of Mahler measures of some polynomials in the first family are also given in terms of special values…

A complete classification of unimodular valuations on the set of lattice polygons with values in the spaces of polynomials and formal power series, respectively, is established. The valuations are classified in terms of their behaviour with…

We survey various classical results on invariants of polynomials, or equivalently, of binary forms, focussing on explicit calculations for invariants of polynomials of degrees 2, 3, 4.

We consider the $k$-higher Mahler measure $m_k(P)$ of a Laurent polynomial $P$ as the integral of $\log ^k \left| P \right|$ over the complex unit circle. In this paper we derive an explicit formula for the value of $\left| m_k(P)…

In this note, we describe several new examples of holomorphic modular forms on the group SU(2,1). These forms are distinguished by having weight $\frac{1}{3}$. We also describe a method for determining the levels at which one should expect…

A number of authors have proven explicit versions of Lehmer's conjecture for polynomials whose coefficients are all congruent to 1 modulo m. We prove a similar result for polynomials f(X) that are divisible in (Z/mZ)[X] by a polynomial of…

In this paper, we recast a special case of Mahler'c conjecture by the maximum value of box splines. This is the case of polytopes with at most $2n+2$ facets. An asymptotic formula for univariate box splines is given. Based on the formula,…
