We develop two structure theorems for vector valued Siegel modular forms for Igusa's subgroup \Gamma_2[2,4], the multiplier system induced by the theta constants and the representation Sym^2. In the proof, we identify some of these modular…

The "Modularity Conjecture" is the assertion that the join of two nonmodular varieties is nonmodular. We establish the veracity of this conjecture for the case of linear idempotent varieties. We also establish analogous results concerning…

For $g=8,12,16$ and $24$, there is a nonzero alternating $g$-multilinear form on the ${\rm Leech}$ lattice, unique up to a scalar, which is invariant by the orthogonal group of ${\rm Leech}$. The harmonic Siegel theta series built from…

It is shown that, in the variety of ternary rings, the elements of amalgamated free products have unique normal forms, and, moreover, this variety satisfies the strong amalgamation property. Applying these statements, effective codescent…

We study the modularity of the functions of the form $r(\tau)^ar(2\tau)^b$, where $a$ and $b$ are integers with $(a,b)\neq (0,0)$ and $r(\tau)$ is the Rogers-Ramanujan continued fraction, which may be considered as companions to the…

Over an arbitrary field, we prove that the relative 2-Deligne tensor product of two separable module 2-categories over a compact semisimple tensor 2-category exists. This allows us to consider the Morita 4-category of compact semisimple…

The theory of topological modular forms (TMF) predicts that elliptic genera of physical theories satisfy a certain divisibility property, determined by the theory's gravitational anomaly. In this note we verify this prediction in Duncan's…

Using holomorphic projection, we work out a parametrization for all relations of products (resp. Rankin-Cohen brackets) of weight $\tfrac 32$ mock modular forms with holomorphic shadow and weight $\tfrac 12$ modular forms in the spirit of…

We prove two-sided inequalities between the integral moduli of smoothness of a function on $\mathbb{R}^d/\mathbb{T}^d$ and the weighted tail-type integrals of its Fourier transform/series. Sharpness of obtained results in particular is…

We study over rings of scalar valued Siegel modular forms. modules of vector valued modular forms of degree two. For the two simplest representations, standard and Sym^2, appears rather natural consider the cases of the group $\Gamma[4,8] $…

As was shown by Harer the second homology of ${\mathbb M}_g$, the moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$, is of rank 1, provided $g \geq 3$. This means a nontrivial second de Rham cohomology class on ${\mathbb M}_g$ is unique…

The word moonshine refers to unexpected relations between the two distinct mathematical structures: finite group representations and modular objects. It is believed that the key to understanding moonshine is through physical theories with…

In this article, we discuss the relation between Kac-Moody algebras, the monstrous moonshine, Jacobi forms and infinite products. We also review Borcherds' solution of the Moonshine Conjecture and his work of constructing automorphic forms…

Monstrous moonshine relates distinguished modular functions to the representation theory of the monster. The celebrated observations that 196884=1+196883 and 21493760=1+196883+21296876, etc., illustrate the case of the modular function…

Modular symbols for the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_0(\mathfrak{n})$ of $GL_{2}(\mathbf{F}_q[T])$ have been defined by Teitelbaum. They have a presentation given by a finite number of generators and relations, in a formalism similar to…

Recent developments in the study of the moonshine phenomenon, including umbral and Conway moonshine, suggest that it may play an important role in encoding the action of finite symmetry groups on the BPS spectrum of K3 string theory. To…

Mathieu Moonshine, the observation that the Fourier coefficients of the elliptic genus on K3 can be interpreted as dimensions of representations of the Mathieu group M24, has been proven abstractly, but a conceptual understanding in terms…

We investigate Poincar\'e series, where we average products of terms of Fourier series of real-analytic Siegel modular forms. There are some (trivial) special cases for which the products of terms of Fourier series of elliptic modular forms…

The modular forms are revisited from a geometric and an algebraic point of view leading to a geometric interpretation of the weak Maass forms connecting them to the Ramanujan Mock Theta functions and to the cusp forms generated from the…

We introduce a generalization of Brauer character to allow arbitrary finite length modules over discrete valuation rings. We show that the generalized super Brauer character of Tate cohomology is a linear combination of trace functions.…
