Some years ago, Borcherds described in [Bo1] two methods for constructing modular forms on modular varieties related to the orthogonal group ${\O}(2,n)$. They are the so called Borcherds' additive and multiplicative lifting. The…
We study the Kodaira dimension of the compactified n-fold Kuga variety over the moduli space of principally polarised abelian g-folds. We construct a suitable compactification, which we call a Namikawa compactification, and show that in…
We describe the construction and properties of a singular theta lift for the orthogonal group $\SO(2,1)$. We obtain locally harmonic Maass forms in the sense of Bringmann-Kane-Kohnen with singular sets along geodesics in the upper half…
We give two congruence properties of Hermitian modular forms of degree 2 over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-1})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$. The one is a congruence criterion for Hermitian modular forms which is generalization of Sturm's theorem.…
It is shown that each complex conjugate of a meromorphic modular form for $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ of any complex weight $p$ occurs as the image of a harmonic modular form under the operator $2i y^p \, \partial_{\bar z}$. These harmonic…
By using Ikeda's theory for a compatible family of Eisenstein series, we explicitly construct Ikeda type lifts on the special orthogonal group $G={\rm SO}(3,n+1)$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ with $n\ge 3$ which splits everywhere at finite places. Our…
In this note we improve on the results of our earlier paper[BLGG12], proving a near-optimal theorem on the existence of ordinary lifts of a mod l Hilbert modular form for any odd prime l.
Given a prime $p \ge 5$ and an abstract odd representation $\rho_n$ with coefficients modulo $p^n$ (for some $n \ge 1$) and big image, we prove the existence of a lift of $\rho_n$ to characteristic $0$ whenever local lifts exist (under some…
In the 1960's Igusa determined the graded ring of Siegel modular forms of genus two. He used theta series to construct $\chi_{5}$, the cusp form of lowest weight for the group $\operatorname{Sp}(2;Z)$. In 2010 Gritsenko found three towers…
We study the geometry of the $p$-adic Siegel eigenvariety $\mathcal{E}$ of paramodular tame level at certain Saito-Kurokawa points having a critical slope. For $k \geq 2$ let $f$ be a cuspidal new eigenform of…
We prove a modularity lifting theorem for potentially Barostti-Tate representations over totally real fields, generalising recent results of Kisin. Unfortunately, there was an error in the original version of this paper, meaning that we can…
The Satake compactification of the moduli space of principally polarized abelian surfaces with a level two structure has a degree 8 endomorphism. The aim of this paper is to show that this result can be extended to other modular threefolds.…
We construct a Shintani lift for rigid analytic cocycles of higher weight, attaching modular forms of half-integral weight to such cocycles. The expression for the Fourier coefficients of the modular form $\mathcal{RS}(J)$ attached to a…
We establish formulae for the Iwasawa invariants of Mazur--Tate elements of cuspidal eigenforms, generalizing known results in weight 2. Our first theorem deals with forms of "medium" weight, and our second deals with forms of small slope .…
Using the amplification technique, we prove that `mass' of the pullback of the Saito-Kurokawa lift of a Hecke eigen form $g\in S_{2k}$ is bounded by $k^{1-\frac{1}{210}+\epsilon}$. This improves the previously known bound $k$ for this…
Given elliptic modular forms f and g satisfying certain conditions on their weights and levels, we prove (a quantitative version of the statement) that there exist infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields K and characters chi of the ideal…
We prove new modularity lifting theorems for p-adic Galois representations in situations where the methods of Wiles and Taylor--Wiles do not apply. Previous generalizations of these methods have been restricted to situations where the…
We classify Siegel modular cusp forms of weight two for the paramodular group K(p) for primes p< 600. We find that weight two Hecke eigenforms beyond the Gritsenko lifts correspond to certain abelian varieties defined over the rationals of…
The classical Maass lift is a map from holomorphic Jacobi forms to holomorphic scalar-valued Siegel modular forms. Automorphic representation theory predicts a non-holomorphic and vector-valued analogue for Hecke eigenforms. This paper is…
The notion of the truncated Euler characteristic for Iwasawa modules is an extension of the notion of the usual Euler characteristic to the case when the homology groups are not finite. This article explores congruence relations between the…
