A weighted pointed curve consists of a nodal curve and a sequence of marked smooth points, each assigned a number between zero and one. A subset of the marked points may coincide if the sum of the corresponding weights is no greater than…
We show that for an orientable non-spin manifold with fundamental group $\mathbb{Z}_2$ and universal cover $S^2\times S^3,$ the moduli space of metrics of nonnegative sectional curvature has infinitely many path components. The…
We study pullbacks of modular forms of weight 1 from the modular curve X(4) to the modular curve X(4p), where p is an odd prime. We find the extent to which such modular forms separate points on X(4p). Our main result is that these modular…
Let $\bf{G}$ be the connected reductive group of type $E_{7,3}$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ and $\mathfrak{T}$ be the corresponding symmetric domain in $\mathbb{C}^{27}$. Let $\Gamma=\bf{G}(\mathbb{Z})$ be the arithmetic subgroup defined by Baily. In…
Let $k$ be a positive integer such that $k\equiv3\mod4$, and let $N$ be a positive square-free integer. In this paper, we compute a basis for the two-dimensional subspace $S_{\frac{k}{2}}(\Gamma_{0}(4N),F)$ of half-integral weight modular…
This introductory paper studies a class of real analytic functions on the upper half plane satisfying a certain modular transformation property. They are not eigenfunctions of the Laplacian and are quite distinct from Maass forms. These…
We count the connected components in the moduli space of PU(p,q)-representations of the fundamental group for a closed oriented surface. The components are labelled by pairs of integers which arise as topological invariants of the flat…
We study the commutator subgroup of integral orthogonal groups belonging to indefinite quadratic forms. We show that the index of this commutator is 2 for many groups that occur in the construction of moduli spaces in algebraic geometry, in…
In this work, we set up a theory of p-adic modular forms over Shimura curves over totally real fields which allows us to consider also non-integral weights. In particular, we define an analogue of the sheaves of k-th invariant differentials…
We give an explicit description of the matrix associated to the $U_p$ operator acting on spaces of overconvergent Hilbert modular forms over totally real fields. Using this, we compute slopes for weights in the centre and near the boundary…
In this paper, we obtain two effective bounds for the $j$-invariant of integral points on certain modular curves which has positive genus and less than three cusps.
We compute the modular transformation formula of the characters for a certain family of (finitely or uncountably many) simple modules over the simple $\mathcal{N}=2$ vertex operator superalgebra of central charge…
Let $\Gamma$ be a cocompact, discrete, and irreducible subgroup of $\mathrm{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{R})^{n}$. Let $\nu$ be a unitary character of $\Gamma$. For $k\in1\slash 2\,\mathbb{Z}$, let $\sknu$ denote the complex vector space of cusp forms…
We study canonical bases for spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms of level 4 and weights in $\mathbb{Z}+\frac{1}{2}$ and show that almost all modular forms in these bases have the property that many of their zeros in a fundamental…
In this paper we compute the number of n degree representations of a group of order p^3 for p an odd prime and the dimensions of corresponding spaces of invariant bilinear forms over an algebraically closed field F. We explicitly discuss…
We construct characteristic-zero lifts of partial Hasse invariants for genus zero non-compact curves in Hilbert modular varieties. The construction is based on recent results on the associated Picard-Fuchs differential equations. As an…
We bound the j-invariant of S-integral points on arbitrary modular curves over arbitrary fields, in terms of the congruence group defining the curve, assuming a certain Runge condition is satisfied by our objects. We then apply our bounds…
We develop a framework to construct moduli spaces of $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein pairs. To do so, we fix certain invariants; these choices are encoded in the notion of $\mathbb{Q}$-stable pair. We show that these choices give a proper moduli…
We show that for arithmetic weights with a fixed finite order character, the slopes of $U_p$ (for $p=2$) acting on overconvergent Hilbert modular forms of level $U_0(4)$ are independent of the (algebraic part of the) weight and can be…
Explicit bases for the spaces of holomorphic cusp forms of all even positive weights and all orders are constructed. The dimensions of these spaces are computed.
