Elliptic Dedekind sums were introduced by R. Sczech as generalizations of classical Dedekind sums to complex lattices. We show that for any lattice with real $j$-invariant, the values of suitably normalized elliptic Dedekind sums are dense…
In this article, we are interested in modular forms with non-vanishing central critical values and linear independence of Fourier coefficients of modular forms. The main ingredient is a generalization of a theorem due to VanderKam to…
We relate analytically defined deformations of modular curves and modular forms from the literature to motivic periods via cohomological descriptions of deformation theory. Leveraging cohomological vanishing results, we prove the existence…
In this paper we study multiple Dedekind symbols and the associated multiple reciprocity functions. There is a bijection between the two sets of them after a normalization. By this bijection we define products of multiple reciprocity…
The values of the so-called {\em Dedekind--Rademacher cocycle} at certain real quadratic arguments are shown to be global $p$-units in the narrow Hilbert class field of the associated real quadratic field, as predicted by conjectures of…
For primitive non-trivial Dirichlet characters $\chi_1$ and $\chi_2$, we study the weight zero newform Eisenstein series $E_{\chi_1,\chi_2}(z,s)$ at $s=1$. The holomorphic part of this function has a transformation rule that we express in…
We form real-analytic Eisenstein series twisted by Manin's noncommutative modular symbols. After developing their basic properties, these series are shown to have meromorphic continuations to the entire complex plane and satisfy functional…
We prove that the modular symbols appropriately normalized and ordered have a Gaussian distribution for all cofinite subgroups of SL_2(R). We use spectral deformations to study the poles and the residues of Eisenstein series twisted by…
Let S_{w+2} be the vector space of cusp forms of weight w+2 on the full modular group, and let S_{w+2}^* denote its dual space. Periods of cusp forms can be regarded as elements of S_{w+2}^*. The Eichler-Shimura isomorphism theorem asserts…
We study the moments of $L$-functions associated with primitive cusp forms, in the weight aspect. In particular, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the twisted moments of a \textit{long} Dirichlet polynomial with modular coefficients. This…
We establish several formulas relating periods of modular forms on quaternion algebras over number fields to special values of L-functions. Our main inputs are the cohomological techniques for working with periods introduced in [Mol21],…
Let $s(a,b)$ denote the classical Dedekind sum and $S(a,b)=12s(a,b)$. Let $k/q$, $q\in \Bbb N$, $k\in \Bbb Z$, $(k,q)=1$, be the value of $S(a,b)$. In a previous paper we showed that there are pairs $(a_r,b_r)$, $r\in\Bbb N$, such that…
In this paper I continue the study of iterated integrals of modular forms and noncommutative modular symbols for $\Gamma \subset SL(2,\bold{Z})$ started in [Ma3]. Main new results involve a description of the iterated Shimura cohomology and…
Let $E(z,s)$ be the non-holomorphic Eisenstein series for the modular group $SL(2,{\mathbb Z})$. The classical Kronecker limit formula shows that the second term in the Laurent expansion at $s=1$ of $E(z,s)$ is essentially the logarithm of…
We show that the values of elliptic Dedekind sums, after normalization, are equidistributed mod 1. The key ingredient is a non-trivial bound on generalized Selberg-Kloosterman sums for discrete subgroups of $\PSL_2(\mathbb C)$ using…
Analytic continuation and functional equation of a Dirichlet series constructed from two (not necessarily cuspidal) holomorphic modular forms is discussed, where either weights of the modular forms or characters are not necessarily equal to…
We develop a general framework for studying relative weight representations for certain pairs consisting of an associative algebra and a commutative subalgebra. Using these tools we describe projective and simple weight modules for quantum…
We define certain higher-dimensional Dedekind sums that generalize the classical Dedekind-Rademacher sums, and show how to compute them effectively using a generalization of the continued-fraction algorithm. We present two applications.…
We define a notion of pseudo-unitarizability for weight modules over a generalized Weyl algebra (of rank one, with commutative coeffiecient ring $R$), which is assumed to carry an involution of the form $X^*=Y$, $R^*\subseteq R$. We prove…
For vector-valued Maass cusp forms for~$SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with real weight~$k\in\mathbb{R}$ and spectral parameter $s\in\mathbb{C}$, $\mathrm{Re} s\in (0,1)$, $s\not\equiv \pm k/2$ mod $1$, we propose a notion of vector-valued period…
