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…

Borcherds lift for an even lattice of signature (p,q) is a lifting from weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight (p-q)/2 for the Weil representation. We introduce a new product operation on the space of such modular forms and develop a…

We investigate the existence and non-existence of modular forms of low weight with a character with respect to the paramodular group $\Gamma_t$ and discuss the resulting geometric consequences. Using an advanced version of Maa\ss\ lifting…

In this paper we extend some results of Norman and Oort and of de Jong, and give an explicit description of the geometry of the Siegel modular threefold with paramodular level structure. We also discuss advantages and restrictions of three…

A precise and testable modularity conjecture for rational abelian surfaces A with trivial endomorphisms, End_Q A = Z, is presented. It is consistent with our examples, our non-existence results and recent work of C. Poor and D. S. Yuen on…

We compute the space $S_2(K(N))$ of weight $2$ Siegel paramodular cusp forms of squarefree level $N<300$. In conformance with the paramodular conjecture of A. Brumer and K. Kramer, the space is only the additive (Gritsenko) lift space of…

We discuss the application of Siegel paramodular forms to the counting of polar states in symmetric product orbifold CFTs. We present five special examples and provide exact analytic counting formulas for their polar states. The first…

Let E/Q be a real quadratic field and pi_0 a cuspidal, irreducible, automorphic representation of GL(2,A_E) with trivial central character and infinity type (2,2n+2) for some non-negative integer n. We show that there exists a non-zero…

We study the rationality properties of the moduli space $\mathcal{A}_g$ of principally polarised abelian $g$-folds over $\mathbb{Q}$ and apply the results to arithmetic questions. In particular we show that any principally polarised abelian…

We consider two dimensional $\mathcal{N}=(4,4)$ superconformal field theories in the moduli space of symmetric orbifolds of K3. We complete a classification of the discrete groups of symmetries of these models, conditional to a series of…

We give an explicit conjectural formula for the motivic Euler characteristic of an arbitrary symplectic local system on the moduli space A_3 of principally polarized abelian threefolds. The main term of the formula is a conjectural motive…

We classify the holomorphic Borcherds products of singular weight for all simple lattices of signature $(2,n)$ with $n \geq 3$. In addition to the automorphic products of singular weight for the simple lattices of square free level found by…

We describe birational models and decide the rationality/unirationality of moduli spaces AA_{d} (and AA^{lev}_{d}) of (1,d)-polarized abelian surfaces (with canonical level structure, respectively) for small values of d. The projective…

Using a description of the cohomology of local systems on the moduli space of abelian surfaces with a full level two structure, together with a computation of Euler characteristics we find the isotypical decomposition, under the symmetric…

We develop a theory of weights for a quantum analogue of the symmetric pair (gl4,gl2 x gl2) realised as a quantum symmetric pair subalgebra. Based on Letzter's triangular decomposition we define Verma modules. Using magical operators that…

There is a lifting from a non-CM elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$ to a paramodular form $f$ of degree $2$ and weight $3$ given by the symmetric cube map. We find the level of $f$ in an explicit way in terms of the coefficients of the…

Barth and Nieto have found a remarkable quintic threefold which parametrizes Heisenberg invariant Kummer surfaces which belong to abelian surfaces with a (1,3)-polarization and a lecel 2 structure. A double cover of this quintic, which is…

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…

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…

This article introduces a universal moduli space for the set whose archetypal element is a pair that consists of a metric and second fundamental form from a compact, oriented, positive genus minimal surface in some hyperbolic 3-manifold.…
