We show that the meromorphic Jacobi form that counts the quarter-BPS states in N=4 string theories can be canonically decomposed as a sum of a mock Jacobi form and an Appell-Lerch sum. The quantum degeneracies of single-centered black holes…

Generating functions of BPS indices, counting states of D4-D2-D0 black holes in Calabi-Yau compactifications of type IIA string theory and identified with rank 0 Donaldson- Thomas invariants, are examples of mock modular forms. They have a…

We motivate and survey the theory of BPS invariants of categories and BPS cohomology of stacks, indicating applications in enumerative geometry and representation theory, as well as recent advances.

We define canonical real analytic versions of modular forms of integral weight for the full modular group, generalising real analytic Eisenstein series. They are harmonic Maass waveforms with poles at the cusp, whose Fourier coefficients…

We study various aspects of modeling astrophysical black holes using the recently introduced semiclassical formalism of physical black holes (PBHs). This approach is based on the minimal requirements of observability and regularity of the…

We propose a program for counting microstates of four-dimensional BPS black holes in N >= 2 supergravities with symmetric-space valued scalars by exploiting the symmetries of timelike reduction to three dimensions. Inspired by the…

Modular, Jacobi, and mock-modular forms serve as generating functions for BPS black hole degeneracies. By training feed-forward neural networks on Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms derived from the Dedekind eta function, Eisenstein…

Dyonic 1/4-BPS states in Type IIB string theory compactified on $\mathrm{K}3 \times T^2$ are counted by meromorphic Jacobi forms. The finite parts of these functions, which are mixed mock Jacobi forms, account for the degeneracy of states…

We propose that Borcherds' Fake Monster Lie algebra is a broken symmetry of heterotic string theory compactified on $T^7 \times T^2$. As evidence, we study the fully flavored counting function for BPS instantons contributing to a certain…

We study the twisted partition function of quarter BPS states in CHL models and show that for a large class of single-centered black holes, the degeneracy of microstates is given by the Fourier coefficients of mock Jacobi forms. Our…

In this paper we deal with monogenic and $k$-hypermonogenic automorphic forms on arithmetic subgroups of the Ahlfors-Vahlen group. Monogenic automorphic forms are exactly the 0-hypermonogenic automorphic forms. In the first part we…

This paper concerns the cohomological aspects of Donaldson-Thomas theory for Jacobi algebras and the associated cohomological Hall algebra, introduced by Kontsevich and Soibelman. We prove the Hodge-theoretic categorification of the…

Second-order automorphic forms are similar to the usual automorphic forms but have a weaker automorphy condition. We answer a question of Zagier and find the dimensions of spaces of holomorphic, even weight, second-order forms. We also…

We consider invariant hyperfunctions associated to automorphic forms on the upper half plane. We give two interpretations of the period function of Maass forms introduced by Lewis. The first interpretation shows that the period function…
