We show that special cycles generate a large part of the cohomology of locally symmetric spaces associated to orthogonal groups. We prove in particular that classes of totally geodesic submanifolds generate the cohomology groups of degree…

We prove a boundedness-theorem for families of abelian varieties with real multiplication. More generally, we study curves in Hilbert modular varieties from the point of view of the Green Griffiths-Lang conjecture claiming that entire…

Serre and Stark found a basis for the space of modular forms of weight 1/2 in terms of theta series. In this paper, we generalize their result - under certain mild restrictions on the level and character - to the case of weight 1/2 Hilbert…

We show that the mod $p$ cohomology of a simple Shimura variety treated in Harris-Taylor's book vanishes outside a certain nontrivial range after localizing at any non-Eisenstein ideal of the Hecke algebra. In cases of low dimensions, we…

We construct Stickelberger elements for Hilbert modular cusp forms of parallel weight 2 and use recent results of Dasgupta and Spiess to bound their order of vanishing from below. As a special case the vanishing part of Mazur and Tate's…

We give an abstract characterization of the Satake compactification of a general Drinfeld modular variety. We prove that it exists and is unique up to unique isomorphism, though we do not give an explicit stratification by Drinfeld modular…

Given a prime $p \ge 5$ and an abstract odd representation $\rho_n$ with coefficients modulo $p^n$ (for some $n \ge 1$) and big image, we prove the existence of a lift of $\rho_n$ to characteristic $0$ whenever local lifts exist (under some…

We show that the Eigenvariety attached to Hilbert modular forms over a totally real field $F$ is smooth at the points corresponding to certain classical weight one theta series and we give a precise criterion for etaleness over the weight…

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 expose in detail the principle that the relative geometric invariant theory of equivariant morphisms is related to the GIT for linearizations near the boundary of the $G$-effective ample cone. We then apply this principle to construct…

In this paper we consider weakly holomorphic modular forms (i.e. those meromorphic modular forms for which poles only possibly occur at the cusps) of weight $2-k\in 2\Z$ for the full modular group $\SL_2(\Z)$. The space has a distinguished…

The Hasse principle in number theory states that information about integral solutions to Diophantine equations can be pieced together from real solutions and solutions modulo prime powers. We show that the Hasse principle holds for…

We study Hopf algebras via tools from geometric invariant theory. We show that all the invariants we get can be constructed using the integrals of the Hopf algebra and its dual together with the multiplication and the comultiplication, and…

In this semi-expository note, we give a new proof of a structure theorem due to Shimura for nearly holomorphic modular forms on the complex upper half plane. Roughly speaking, the theorem says that the space of all nearly holomorphic…

We address a question posed by Ono, prove a general result for powers of an arbitrary prime, and provide an explanation for the appearance of higher congruence moduli for certain small primes. One of our results coincides with a recent…

Let $p$ be a prime number, let $d$ be an integer and let $G$ be a $d$-generated finite $p$-group of nilpotency class smaller than $p$. Then the number of possible isomorphism types for the mod $p$ cohomology algebra $H^*(G;{\mathbb F}_p)$…

Following the natural instinct that when a group operates on a number field then every term in the class number formula should factorize `compatibly' according to the representation theory (both complex and modular) of the group, we are led…

Let K be an imaginary quadratic field with class number one and ring of integers O. We prove that mod l, a system of Hecke eigenvalues occurring in the first cohomology group of some congruence subgroup Gamma of SL(2,O) can be realized in…

We study the special fiber of the integral models for Shimura varieties of Hodge type with parahoric level structure constructed by Kisin and Pappas in [KP]. We show that when the group is residually split, the points in the mod $p$ isogeny…

We apply Hilbert module methods to show that normal completely positive maps admit weak tensor dilations. Appealing to a duality between weak tensor dilations and extensions of CP-maps, we get an existence proof for certain extensions. We…
