We compute the Fourier coefficients of analogues of Kohnen and Zagier's modular forms $f_{k,D}$ of weight $2$ and negative discriminant. These functions can also be written as twisted traces of certain weight $2$ Poincar\'e series with…

We sketch a proof of a conjecture of [FFKM] that relates the geometric Eisenstein series sheaf with semi-infinite cohomology of the small quantum group with coefficients in the tilting module for the big quantum group.

Let $E$ be a level 1, vector valued Eisenstein series of half-integral weight, normalized so that the coefficients are all in $\mathbb{Z}$. We show that there is a level one vector valued cusp form $f$ with the same weight as $E$ and with…

We show that there exist infinitely many pairs of non-homeomorphic closed oriented SOL torus bundles with the same quantum (TQFT) invariants. This follows from the arithmetic behind the conjugacy problem in $SL(2,\Z)$ and its congruence…

We study the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev SU(2) invariant for the Seifert manifold $S^3/\Gamma$ where $\Gamma$ is a finite subgroup of SU(2). We show that the WRT invariants can be written in terms of the Eichler integral of the modular…

Let $f(q)$ denote Ramanujan's mock theta function \[f(q) = \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a(n) q^{n} := 1+\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \frac{q^{n^{2}}}{(1+q)^{2}(1+q^{2})^{2}\cdots(1+q^{n})^{2}}.\] It is known that there are many linear congruences for the…

Using a result of Takata, we prove a formula for the colored Jones polynomial of the double twist knots $K_{(-m,-p)}$ and $K_{(-m,p)}$ where $m$ and $p$ are positive integers. In the $(-m,-p)$ case, this leads to new families of…

By choosing an unconventional polarization of the connection phase space in (2+1)-gravity on the torus, a modular invariant quantum theory is constructed. Unitary equivalence to the ADM-quantization is shown.

Ramanujan derived a sequence of even weight $2n$ quasimodular forms $U_{2n}(q)$ from derivatives of Jacobi's weight $3/2$ theta function. Using the generating function for this sequence, one can construct sequences of quasimodular forms of…

In analogy with the classical theory of Eichler integrals for integral weight modular forms, Lawrence and Zagier considered examples of Eichler integrals of certain half-integral weight modular forms. These served as early prototypes of a…

For each prime $\ell$, let $|\cdot|_\ell$ be an extension to $\bar \Q$ of the usual $\ell$-adic absolute value on $\Q$. Suppose $g(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty c(n)q^n \in M_{k+\half}(N)$ is an eigenform whose Fourier coefficients are algebraic…

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 prove a formula for the coefficients of a weight $3/2$ Cohen-Eisenstein series of square-free level $N$. This formula generalizes a result of Gross and in particular, it proves a conjecture of Quattrini. Let $l$ be an odd prime number.…

In this paper we introduce an elliptic analog of the Bloch-Suslin complex and prove that it (essentially) computes the weight two parts of the groups $K_2(E)$ and $K_1(E)$ for an elliptic curve $E$ over an arbitrary field $k$. Combining…

Rosso and Jones gave a formula for the colored Jones polynomial of a torus knot, colored by an irreducible representation of a simple Lie algebra. The Rosso-Jones formula involves a plethysm function, unknown in general. We provide an…

We prove asymptotics and study sign patterns for coefficients in expansions of elements in the Habiro ring which satisfy a strange identity. As an application, we prove asymptotics and discuss positivity for the generalized Fishburn numbers…

We compare the values of the nonorientable three genus (or, crosscap number) and the nonorientable four genus of torus knots. In particular, let T(p,q) be any torus knot with p even and q odd. The difference between these two invariants on…

We formulate a conjecture (already proven by A. Kricker) about the structure of Kontsevich integral of a knot. We describe its value in terms of the generating functions for the numbers of external edges attached to closed 3-valent…

We prove a higher weight general Gross--Zagier formula for CM cycles on Kuga--Sato varieties over modular curves of arbitrary levels. To formulate and prove this result, we prove several results on the modularity of CM cycles, in the sense…
