We consider a special theta lift $\theta(f)$ from cuspidal Siegel modular forms $f$ on $\mathrm{Sp}_4$ to "modular forms" $\theta(f)$ on $\mathrm{SO}(4,4)$. This lift can be considered an analogue of the Saito-Kurokawa lift, where now the…

In this article we give a criterion for a mod $\ell$ eigenvalue system attached to a mod $\ell$ Katz cuspform to arise from lower level or weight. Namely, we prove the following: the eigenvalue system associated to a ring homomorphism…

Let $F$ be an Ikeda lift, $\lambda_F(m)$ be the eigenvalue corresponding to the Hecke operator $T(m)$. We show that $\lambda_F(p)$ is positive for all large enough primes $p$. This is proved for Ikeda lifts of all genus. The second result…

Let F in S_k(Sp(2g, Z)) be a cuspidal Siegel eigenform of genus g with normalized Hecke eigenvalues mu_F(n). Suppose that the associated automorphic representation pi_F is locally tempered everywhere. For each c>0 we consider the set of…

Given a congruence of Hecke eigenvalues between newforms of weight $2$, we prove, under certain conditions, a congruence between corresponding weight-$3/2$ forms.

Let $p$ be a prime number and $N$ an integer prime to $p$. We show that the operator $U_p$ on the space of cuspidal modular forms of level $pN$ and weight two is semi-simple. It follows from this that the Hecke algebra acting on the space…

Given two Siegel eigenforms of different weights, we determine explicit sets of Hecke eigenvalues for the two forms that must be distinct. In degree two, and under some additional conditions, we determine explicit sets of Fourier…

Let $p$ be a rational prime, let $q>1$ be a $p$-power integer, let $\mathbb{F}_q$ be the field of $q$ elements and let $A=\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ be the polynomial ring over $\mathbb{F}_q$. Let $\mathfrak{n}\in A$ be a nonzero element and let…

Let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n \geq 1}$ be the normalized Hecke eigenvalues of a given holomorphic cusp form $f$ of even weight $k$. We show under the assumption of the existence of Littlewood's type zero free region for $L(s, f, \chi)$, where…

We prove congruences of Hecke eigenvalues between cuspidal Hilbert newforms $f_{79}$ and $h_{79}$ over $F=\mathbb Q(\sqrt{5})$, of weights (2,2) and (2,4) respectively, level of norm 79. In the main example, the modulus is a divisor of 5 in…

Let $f \in S_{2r}(\Gamma_0(N))$ be a normalized newform of weight $2r$ which is good at $p$. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field of class number one in which every prime divisor of $pN$ splits. Let $\chi$ be an anticyclotomic Hecke…

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 study congruences involving $p$-adic families of Hecke eigensystems of Yoshida lifts associated with two Hida families (say $\mathcal{F},\mathcal{G}$) of elliptic cusp forms. With appropriate hypotheses, we show that if a Hida family of…

Let $p$ be a rational prime, $v_p$ the normalized $p$-adic valuation on $\mathbb{Z}$, $q>1$ a $p$-power and $A=\mathbb{F}_q[t]$. Let $\wp\in A$ be an irreducible polynomial and $\mathfrak{n}\in A$ a non-zero element which is prime to $\wp$.…

Let $j(z)$ be the modular $j$-invariant function. Let $\tau$ be an algebraic number in the complex upper half plane $\mathbb{H}$. It was proved by Schneider and Siegel that if $\tau$ is not a CM point, i.e.,…

Notable results on the special values of $L$-functions of Siegel modular forms were obtained by J. Sturm in the case when the degree $n$ is even and the weight $k$ is an integer. In this paper we extend this method to half-integer weights…

A well-known conjecture, often attributed to Serre, asserts that any motive over any number field has infinitely many ordinary reductions (in the sense that the Newton polygon coincides with the Hodge polygon). In the case of Hilbert…

We study the cohomology of certain local systems on moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian surfaces with a level 2 structure. The trace of Frobenius on the alternating sum of the \'etale cohomology groups of these local systems can…

We introduce an alternate set of generators for the Hecka algebra, and give an explicit formula for the action of these operators on Fourier coefficients. With this, we compute the eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on average Siegel…

The central result of this paper is a refinement of Hida's duality theorem between ordinary Lambda-adic modular forms and the universal ordinary Hecke algebra. Specifically, we give a necessary condition for this duality to be integral with…
