For certain negative rational numbers k0, called singular values, and associated with the symmetric group S_N on N objects, there exist homogeneous polynomials annihilated by each Dunkl operator when the parameter k = k0. It was shown by de…

We construct motivic cohomology classes attached to Rankin--Selberg convolutions of modular forms of weights $\ge 2$, show that these vary analytically in p-adic families, and relate their image under the p-adic regulator map to values of…

Basic modules of McLain groups $M=M(\Lambda,\leq, R)$ are defined and investigated. These are (possibly infinite dimensional) analogues of Andr\'e's supercharacters of $U_n(q)$. The ring $R$ need not be finite or commutative and the field…

We propose a moonshine for the sporadic Mathieu group M_12 that relates its conjugacy classes to various modular forms and Borcherds Kac-Moody Lie superalgebras.

Here we initiate a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic-geometric invariants in a systematic way. To do this we first introduce a notion of optimal module for a finite group in the setting of holomorphic mock…

We describe a natural structure of an abelian intertwining algebra (in the sense of Dong and Lepowsky) on the direct sum of the untwisted vertex operator algebra constructed {}from the Leech lattice and its (unique) irreducible twisted…

We study a class of newly-introduced CFTs associated with even quadratic forms of general signature, which we call generalized Narain theories. We first summarize the properties of these theories. We then consider orbifolds of these…

For every positive integral level $k$ we study arithmetic properties of certain holomorphic modular forms associated to modular invariant spaces spanned by graded dimensions of $L_{\hat{sl_2}}(k \Lambda_0)$-modules. We found a necessary and…

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],…

We begin by considering faithful matrix representations of elementary abelian groups in prime characteristic. The representations considered are seen to be determined up to change of bases by a single number. Studying this number leads to a…

Let $\mathfrak{M}_n$ be the multiplicative monoid of $n \times n$ matrices over a finite field. The monoid algebra $\mathbf{C}[\mathfrak{M}_n]$ has been studied for several decades. One of the important early results is Kov\'acs' theorem…

We consider spaces of modular forms attached to definite orthogonal groups of low even rank and nontrivial level, equipped with Hecke operators defined by Kneser neighbours. After reviewing algorithms to compute with these spaces, we…

Consider the diagonal action of the special orthogonal group on the direct sum of a finite number of copies of the standard representation--the underlying field is assumed to be algebraically closed and of characteristic not equal to two.…

We study a certain family of simple fusion systems over finite $3$-groups, ones that involve Todd modules of the Mathieu groups $2M_{12}$, $M_{11}$, and $A_6=O^2(M_{10})$ over $\mathbb{F}_3$, and show that they are all isomorphic to the…

We study the monic orthogonal polynomials with respect to a singularly perturbed Airy weight. By using Chen and Ismail's ladder operator approach, we derive a discrete system satisfied by the recurrence coefficients for the orthogonal…

We continue our development of the invariant theory of genus one curves with the aim of computing certain twists of the universal family of elliptic curves parametrised by the modular curve X(n) for n = 2,3,4,5. Our construction makes use…

In this talk we discuss a class of Feynman integrals, which can be expressed to all orders in the dimensional regularisation parameter as iterated integrals of modular forms. We review the mathematical prerequisites related to elliptic…

According to McKay (1980) the irreducible characters of finite subgroups of SU(2) are in a natural 1-1 correspondence with the extended Coxeter-Dynkin graphs of type ADE. We show that the character values themselves can be given by an…

In the recent paper "Mutation in triangulated categories and rigid Cohen-Macaulay modules" Iyama and Yoshino consider two interesting examples of isolated singularities over which it is possible to classify the indecomposable maximal…

Recently, a beautiful paper of Andrews and Sellers has established linear congruences for the Fishburn numbers modulo an infinite set of primes. Since then, a number of authors have proven refined results, for example, extending all of…
