The power classes of a field are well-known for their ability to parameterize elementary $p$-abelian Galois extensions. These classical objects have recently been reexamined through the lens of their Galois module structure. Module…
We describe a computational approach to the verification of Maeda's conjecture for the Hecke operator T2 on the space of cusp forms of level one. We provide experimental evidence for all weights less than 12000, as well as some applications…
In this paper, we call strongly modular those reducible semi-simple odd mod $l$ Galois representations for which the conclusion of the strongest form of Serre's original modularity conjecture holds. Under the assumption that the Serre…
Form Factor Perturbation Theory is applied to study the spectrum of the O(3) non--linear sigma model with the topological term in the vicinity of $\theta = \pi$. Its effective action near this value is given by the non--integrable double…
In this series of papers, we introduce higher level versions of the theta group $\Gamma_{\theta}.$ In this paper, we treat the theta group of level $5$, $\Gamma_{\theta,5},$ and construct modular forms on $\Gamma_{\theta,5}$. Moreover we…
In this note, we explicitly construct mock modular forms with integral Fourier coefficients by evaluating regularized Petersson inner products involving their shadows, which are unary theta functions of weights 1/2 and 3/2 . In addition, we…
We present a Serre-type conjecture on the modularity of four-dimensional symplectic mod p Galois representations. We assume that the Galois representation is irreducible and odd (in the symplectic sense). The modularity condition is…
We consider mod $p$ Hilbert modular forms for a totally real field $F$, viewed as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties in prime characteristic $p$. For a Hecke eigenform of arbitrary weight, we prove the…
We investigate certain finiteness questions that arise naturally when studying approximations modulo prime powers of p-adic Galois representations coming from modular forms. We link these finiteness statements with a question by K. Buzzard…
We compute the arithmetic L-invariants (of Greenberg-Benois) of twists of symmetric powers of p-adic Galois representations attached to Iwahori level Hilbert modular forms (under some technical conditions). Our method uses the automorphy of…
In the first paper of this sequence, we provided an explicit hypergeometric modularity method by combining different techniques from the classical, $p$-adic, and finite field settings. In this article, we explore an application of this…
Half-integral weight modular forms are naturally viewed as automorphic forms on the so-called metaplectic covering of $\operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbf{A}_{\mathbf{Q}})$ -- a central extension by the roots of unity $\mu_2$ in $\mathbf{Q}$. For…
Let $p\geq 5$ be a prime number, $\mathbb{F}$ a finite field of characteristic $p$ and let $\bar{\chi}$ be the mod-$p$ cyclotomic character. Let $\bar{\rho}:\operatorname{G}_{\mathbb{Q}}\rightarrow \operatorname{GL}_2(\mathbb{F})$ be a…
We revisit the construction of Castella and Do of an anticyclotomic Euler system for the $p$-adic Galois representation of a modular form, using diagonal classes. Combining this construction and some previous results of ours, we obtain new…
We show that the gradient and the hessian of the Riemann theta function in dimension n can be combined to give a theta function of order n+1 and modular weight (n+5)/2 defined on the theta divisor. It can be seen that the zero locus of this…
In [Ramanujan J. 52 (2020), 275-290], Romik considered the Taylor expansion of Jacobi's theta function $\theta_3(q)$ at $q=e^{-\pi}$ and encoded it in an integer sequence $(d(n))_{n\ge0}$ for which he provided a recursive procedure to…
We define a notion of modular forms of half-integral weight on the quaternionic exceptional groups. We prove that they have a well-behaved notion of Fourier coefficients, which are complex numbers defined up to multiplication by $\pm 1$. We…
We study algorithms for the fast computation of modular inverses. Newton-Raphson iteration over $p$-adic numbers gives a recurrence relation computing modular inverse modulo $p^m$, that is logarithmic in $m$. We solve the recurrence to…
We give a comprehensive treatment of the transformation laws of theta functions from an algebro-geometric perspective, that is, in terms of moduli of abelian schemes. This is accomplished by introducing geometric notions of theta-descent…
Let $R$ be a commutative $\mathbb{Z}[1/p]$-algebra, let $m \leq n$ be positive integers, and let $G_n=\text{GL}_n(F)$ and $G_m=\text{GL}_m(F)$ where $F$ is a $p$-adic field. The Weil representation is the smooth $R[G_n\times G_m]$-module…
