We study modular forms for $\textrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ with no negative Fourier coefficients. Let $A(k)$ be the positive integer where if the first $A(k)$ Fourier coefficients of a modular form of weight $k$ for $\textrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$…

For a newform $f=\sum a_n q^n$ of weight $k \geq 3$ and a prime $\lambda$ of $\mathbf{Q}(a_n)$, the deformation problem for its associated mod $\lambda$ Galois representation is unobstructed for all primes outside some finite set. Previous…

In an article in the Pure and Applied Mathematics Quarterly in 2008, Duke and Jenkins investigated a certain natural basis of the space of weakly holomorphic modular forms for the full modular group $SL_2({\bf Z})$. We show here that their…

We twist Zagier's function $f_{k,D}$ by a sign function and a genus character. Assuming weight $0 < k \equiv 2 \pmod{4}$, and letting $D$ be a positive non-square discriminant, we prove that the obstruction to modularity caused by the sign…

Associated to a newform $f(z)$ is a Dirichlet series $L_f(s)$ with functional equation and Euler product. Hecke showed that if the Dirichlet series $F(s)$ has a functional equation of a particular form, then $F(s)=L_f(s)$ for some…

In the round 6-sphere, null-torsion holomorphic curves are fundamental examples of minimal surfaces. This class of minimal surfaces is quite rich: By a theorem of Bryant, extended by Rowland, every closed Riemann surface may be conformally…

In this note we show that the irreducible twisted modules of a holomorphic, $C_2$-cofinite vertex operator algebra $V$ have $L_0$-weights at least as large as the smallest $L_0$-weight of $V$. Hence, if $V$ is of CFT-type, then the twisted…

Let $F$ (over $\mathbb{Q}$) be a totally real number field of narrow class number $1$. We generalize a result of Kohnen on the determination of half integral weight modular forms by their Fourier coefficients supported on squarefree…

We show that the ring of modular forms with characters for $\mathrm{O}(2,4;\mathbb{Z})$ is generated by forms of weights 4, 4, 6, 8, 10, 10, 12, and 30 with three relations of weights 8, 20, and 60. The proof is based on the study of a…

We give all possible holomorphic Eisenstein series on $\Gamma_0(p)$, of rational weights greater than $2$, and with multiplier systems the same as certain rational-weight eta-quotients at all cusps. We prove they are modular forms and give…

In this paper we construct a cover {a_s(mod n_s)}_{s=1}^k of Z with odd moduli such that there are distinct primes p_1,...,p_k dividing 2^{n_1}-1,...,2^{n_k}-1 respectively. Using this cover we show that for any positive integer m divisible…

The Keating--Snaith conjecture for orthogonal families may be viewed as analogous to a Gaussian distribution with a negative mean, and the possibility that mixed moments resemble a composition of independent moments, these two insights were…

Let Gamma < SL(2,Z) be a free, finitely generated Fuchsian group of the second kind with no parabolics, and fix two primitive non-zero vectors v0, w0 in Z^2. We consider the set S of all integers occurring in <v0 gamma,w0>, for gamma in…

We show that $G$-Fano threefolds are mirror-modular. 1. Mirror maps are inversed reversed Hauptmoduln for moonshine subgroups of $SL_2(\mathbb{R})$. 2. Quantum periods, shifted by an integer constant (eigenvalue of quantum operator on…

For each nonnegative integer m we show that any closed, oriented topological four-manifold with fundamental group Z_{4m+2} and odd intersection form, with possibly seven exceptions, either admits no smooth structure or admits infinitely…

A result of Dieulefait-Wiese proves the existence of modular eigenforms of weight 2 for which the image of every associated residual Galois representation is as large as possible. We generalize this result to eigenforms of general even…

We calculate the one-level density of thin subfamilies of a family of Hecke cuspforms formed by twisting the forms in a smaller family by a character. The result gives support up to 1, conditional on GRH, and we also find several of the…

In this paper we apply results from the theory of congruences of modular forms (control of reducible primes, level-lowering), the modularity of elliptic curves and Q-curves, and a couple of Frey curves of Fermat-Goldbach type, to show the…

Let $E \subset \mathbb{Z}^N$ be a set of positive upper Banach density and let $\Gamma < \operatorname{GL}_N(\mathbb{Z})$ be a finitely generated, strongly irreducible subgroup whose Zariski closure in $\operatorname{GL}_N(\mathbb{R})$ is a…

Let $\lambda_g (n)$ be the Fourier coefficients of a holomorphic cusp modular form $g$ for $\mathrm{SL}_2 (\mathbb{Z})$. The aim of this article is to get non-trivial bound on non-linearly additively twisted sums of the Fourier coefficients…
