In this paper we obtain some congruences involving central binomial coefficients and Lucas sequences. For example, we show that if p>5 is a prime then $\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}F_k*binom(2k,k)/12^k$ is congruent to 0,1,-1 modulo p according as p=1,4…

We construct certain operations on stable moduli spaces and use them to compare cohomology of moduli spaces of closed manifolds with tangential structure. We obtain isomorphisms in a stable range provided the $p$-adic valuation of the Euler…

Modifying a method of Jutila, we prove a t aspect subconvexity estimate for L-functions associated to primitive holomorphic cusp forms of arbitrary level that is of comparable strength to Good's bound for the full modular group, thus…

Associated to an (adelic) Hilbert modular form is a sequence of `Fourier coefficients' which uniquely determine the form. In this paper we characterize Hilbert modular cusp forms by the size of their Fourier coefficients. This answers in…

For a cubic number field $L$, we consider the $\mathbb{Z}$-order in $L$ of the form $\mathbb{Z}[\alpha]$, where $\alpha$ is a root of a polynomial of the form $x^3-ax+b$ and $a,b\in\mathbb{Z}$ are integers such that $v_p(a)\leq 2$ or…

We study modular Galois representations mod $p^m$. We show that there are three progressively weaker notions of modularity for a Galois representation mod $p^m$: we have named these `strongly', `weakly', and `dc-weakly' modular. Here, `dc'…

We prove several dimension formulas for spaces of scalar-valued Siegel modular forms of degree $2$ with respect to certain congruence subgroups of level $4$. In case of cusp forms, all modular forms considered originate from cuspidal…

The problem on the construction of antisymmetric paramodular forms of canonical weight 3 was open since 1998. Any cusp form of this type determines a canonical differential form on any smooth compactification of the moduli space of Kummer…

We construct bases of the simple modules for partition algebras which are indexed by paths in an alcove geometry. This allows us to give a concrete interpretation (and new proof) of the monotone convergence property for Kronecker…

For two varieties of dimension $5$ constructed as double covers of ${\mathbb P}^5$ branched along the union of $12$ hyperplanes, we prove that the number of points over ${\mathbb F}_p$ can be expressed in terms of Artin symbols and the…

We describe the $p$-divisibility transposition for the Fourier coefficients of Hermitian modular forms. The results show that the same phenomenon as that for Siegel modular forms holds for Hermitian modular forms.

The authors have conjectured (\cite{KoM}) that if a normalized generalized modular function (GMF) $f$, defined on a congruence subgroup $\Gamma$, has integral Fourier coefficients, then $f$ is classical in the sense that some power $f^m$ is…

We show that if a modular cuspidal eigenform $f$ of weight $2k$ is $2$-adically close to an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$, which has a cyclic rational $4$-isogeny, then $n$-th Fourier coefficient of $f$ is non-zero in the short interval…

Let $p$ be prime, $N$ be a positive integer prime to $p$, and $k$ be an integer. Let $P_k(t)$ be the characteristic series for Atkin's $U$ operator as an endomorphism of $p$-adic overconvergent modular forms of tame level $N$ and weight…

We study congruences of the form F(j(z)) | U(p) = G(j(z)) mod p, where U(p) is the p-th Hecke operator, j is the basic modular invariant 1/q+744+196884q+... for SL2(Z), and F,G are polynomials with integer coefficients. Using the interplay…

We determine the ring structure of Siegel modular forms of degree g modulo a prime p, extending Nagaoka's result in the case of degree g=2. We characterize U(p) congruences of Jacobi forms and Siegel modular forms, and surprisingly find…

We prove that if the signed binomial coefficient $(-1)^i\binom{k}{i}$ viewed modulo p is a periodic function of i with period h prime to p in the range $0\le i\le k$, then k+1 is a power of p, provided h is not too large compared to k. (In…

We study two analogs, for modular forms over $\mathbb{F}_{q}(T)$, of the pairing between Hecke algebra and cusp forms given by the first coefficient in the expansion. For Drinfeld modular forms, the $\mathbb{C}_{\infty}$-pairing is provided…

We prove that a Siegel cusp form of degree 2 for the full modular group is determined by its set of Fourier coefficients a(S) with 4 det(S) ranging over odd squarefree integers. As a key step to our result, we also prove that a classical…

This is the first of two coupled papers estimating the mean values of multiplicative functions, of unknown support, on arithmetic progressions with large differences. Applications are made to the study of primes in arithmetic progression…
