For certain subgroups of $M_{24}$, we give vertex operator algebraic module constructions whose associated trace functions are meromorphic Jacobi forms. These meromorphic Jacobi forms are canonically associated to the mock modular forms of…

We construct super vertex operator algebras which lead to modules for moonshine relations connecting the four smaller sporadic simple Mathieu groups with distinguished mock modular forms. Starting with an orbifold of a free fermion theory,…

MacMahon's partition functions and their extensions provide equations that identify prime numbers as solutions. These results depend on the theory of (mixed weight) quasimodular forms on $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$. Two of the authors, along with…

We show that the modular group has an infinite family of finite index subgroups, each of which has the same trace set as the modular group itself. Various congruence subgroups of the modular group, and the Bianchi groups, are also shown to…

We consider the situation in which a finite group acts on an infinite-dimensional graded module in such a way that the graded trace functions are weakly holomorphic modular forms. Under a mild hypothesis we completely describe the…

By the theory of Eisenstein series, generating functions of various divisor functions arise as modular forms. It is natural to ask whether further divisor functions arise systematically in the theory of mock modular forms. We establish,…

We study graded traces of vectors in free bosonic vertex operator algebras and lattice vertex operator algebras. We show in particular that trace functions in these two theories always have the shape f(q)/\eta(q)^d where f(q) is…

The main object considered in this paper is the trace function, defined as a suitably normalized trace of a product of intertwining operators for the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group, multiplied by the exponential of an element of the Cartan…

Let $V$ be a rational, selfdual, $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra of CFT type, and $G$ a finite automorphism group of $V.$ It is proved that the kernel of the representation of the modular group on twisted conformal blocks associated…

We show that trace functions on modules of topological N=2 super vertex algebras give rise to conformal blocks on elliptic supercurves. We show that they satisfy a system of linear partial differential equations with respect to the modular…

We study "partition Eisenstein series", extensions of the Eisenstein series $G_{2k}(\tau),$ defined by $$\lambda=(1^{m_1}, 2^{m_2},\dots, k^{m_k}) \vdash k \ \ \ \ \ \longmapsto \ \ \ \ \ G_{\lambda}(\tau):= G_2(\tau)^{m_1}…

We describe a type of n-point function associated to strongly regular vertex operator algebras V and their irreducible modules. Transformation laws with respect to the Jacobi group are developed for 1-point functions. For certain elements…

We prove the quasimodularity of generating functions for counting torus covers, with and without Siegel-Veech weight. Our proof is based on analyzing decompositions of flat surfaces into horizontal cylinders. The quasimodularity arise as…

We define a notion of modular forms of half-integral weight on the quaternionic exceptional groups. We prove that they have a well-behaved notion of Fourier coefficients, which are complex numbers defined up to multiplication by $\pm 1$. We…

We study various properties of quasimodular forms by using their connections with Jacobi-like forms and pseudodifferential operators. Such connections are made by identifying quasimodular forms for a discrete subgroup $\G$ of $SL(2, \bR)$…

The classical theory of monstrous moonshine describes the unexpected connection between the representation theory of the monster group $M$, the largest of the simple sporadic groups, and certain modular functions, called Hauptmodln. In…

The vector-valued mock modular forms of umbral moonshine may be repackaged into meromorphic Jacobi forms of weight one. In this work we constructively solve two cases of the meromorphic module problem for umbral moonshine. Specifically, for…

Mathieu moonshine attaches a weak Jacobi form of weight zero and index one to each conjugacy class of the largest sporadic simple group of Mathieu. We introduce a modification of this assignment, whereby weak Jacobi forms are replaced by…

We describe surprising relationships between automorphic forms of various kinds, imaginary quadratic number fields and a certain system of six finite groups that are parameterised naturally by the divisors of twelve. The Mathieu group…

We extend the modular invariance property of the trace functions of vertex operator algebra on the set of irreducible modules (Zhu's theory) to the case of trace functions of intertwining operators.
