We study sums over primes of trace functions of $\ell$-adic sheaves. Using an extension of our earlier results on algebraic twist of modular forms to the case of Eisenstein series and bounds for Type II sums based on similar applications of…
We study the classification of submodules of module categories over monoidal categories, extending ideas of Coulembier on the classification of tensor ideals in monoidal categories. We develop a framework that applies to module categories…
We propose a conjecture that is a substantial generalization of the genus zero assertions in both Monstrous Moonshine and Modular Moonshine. Our conjecture essentially asserts that if we are given any homomorphism to the complex numbers…
We study self-adjoint semigroups of partial isometries on a Hilbert space. These semigroups coincide precisely with faithful representations of abstract inverse semigroups. Groups of unitary operators are specialized examples of…
We describe the main questions connected to torsion subgroups in the unit group of integral group rings of finite groups and algorithmic methods to attack these questions. We then prove the Zassenhaus Conjecture for Amitsur groups and prove…
A modular grid is a pair of sequences $(f_m)_m$ and $(g_n)_n$ of weakly holomorphic modular forms such that for almost all $m$ and $n$, the coefficient of $q^n$ in $f_m$ is the negative of the coefficient of $q^m$ in $g_n$. Zagier proved…
We derive finite rational formulas for the traces of cycle integrals of certain meromorphic modular forms. Moreover, we prove the modularity of a completion of the generating function of such traces. The theoretical framework for these…
We take a unifying and new approach toward polynomial and trigonometric approximation in an arbitrary number of variables, resulting in a precise and general ready-to-use tool that anyone can easily apply in new situations of interest. The…
Monstrous moonshine relates the representation of the Monster finite sporadic simple group to the distinguished modular functions, called Hauptmoduln. Chen-Yui~\cite{Chen-Yui} showed that the CM values of Hauptmoduln which appeare in…
We construct a self-dual integral form of the moonshine vertex operator algebra, and show that it has symmetries given by the Fischer-Griess monster simple group. The existence of this form resolves the last remaining open assumption in the…
The purpose of this paper is to generalize Zhu's theorem about characters of modules over a vertex operator algebra graded by integer conformal weights, to the setting of a vertex operator superalgebra graded by rational conformal weights.…
Recently the algebraic structure of gauge-invariant operators in multi-matrix quantum mechanics has been clarified: this space forms a module over a freely generated ring. The ring is generated by a set of primary invariants, while the…
We obtain new bounds for short sums of isotypic trace functions associated to some sheaf modulo prime $p$ of bounded conductor, twisted by the Mobius function and also by the generalised divisor function. These trace functions include…
We show that rigid supersymmetry theories in four dimensions can be extended to give supersymmetric trace (or generalized quantum) dynamics theories, in which the supersymmetry algebra is represented by the generalized Poisson bracket of…
We investigate the possible structures imposed on a finite group by its possession of an automorphism sending a large fraction of the group elements to their cubes, the philosophy being that this should force the group to be, in some sense,…
We give a further development of the Aichinger-Moosbauer calculus of functional degrees of maps between commutative groups. For any fixed given commutative groups $A$ and $B$, we compute the largest possible finite functional degree that a…
Finite quasi semimetrics on $n$ can be thought of as nonnegative valuations on the edges of a complete directed graph on $n$ vertices satisfying all possible triangle inequalities. They comprise a polyhedral cone whose symmetry groups were…
We introduce non-linear traces of the Choquet type and Sugeno type on a semifinite factor $\mathcal{M}$ as a non-commutative analog of the Choquet integral and Sugeno integral for non-additive measures. We need weighted dimension function…
A well-known conjecture of Gross and Zagier states that the values of the higher automorphic Green's function at pairs of points with complex multiplication in the upper half-plane are proportional to the logarithm of an algebraic number.…
Quaternionic modular forms on $\mathsf{G}_2$ carry a surprisingly rich arithmetic structure. For example, they have a theory of Fourier expansions where the Fourier coefficients are indexed by totally real cubic rings. For quaternionic…
