We construct the deformation functor associated to a couple of morphisms of differential graded Lie algebras, and use it to study the infinitesimal deformations of a holomorphic map of compact complex manifolds. In particular, in the case…
This is a survey article about Siegel modular varieties over the complex numbers. It is written mostly from the point of view of moduli of abelian varieties, especially surfaces. We cover compactification of Siegel modular varieties;…
In this paper we show that the dimensionally reduced Seiberg-Witten equations lead to a Higgs field and study the resulting moduli spaces. The moduli space arising out of a subset of the equations, shown to be non-empty for a compact…
We enumerate smooth rational curves on very general Weierstrass fibrations over hypersurfaces in projective space. The generating functions for these numbers lie in the ring of classical modular forms. The method of proof uses topological…
We study the supersingular locus of the Siegel modular variety of genus 3 or 4. More concretely, we decompose the supersingular locus into a disjoint union of the product of a Deligne-Lusztig variety of Coxeter type and a finite-dimensional…
We establish an Eichler-Shimura isomorphism for weakly modular forms of level one. We do this by relating weakly modular forms with rational Fourier coefficients to the algebraic de Rham cohomology of the modular curve with twisted…
We study the second order invariants of a Lorentzian surface in $\mathbb{R}^{2,2},$ and the curvature hyperbolas associated to its second fundamental form. Besides the four natural invariants, new invariants appear in some degenerate…
We prove a new converse theorem for Borcherds' multiplicative theta lift which improves the previously known results. To this end we develop a newform theory for vector valued modular forms for the Weil representation, which might be of…
We propose a formulation of the Equivariant Tamagawa Number Conjecture for modular motives with coefficients in universal deformation rings and Hecke algebras; something which seems to have been heretofore missing because the complexes of…
In this paper we study the modulus of continuity of weak solutions to a singular elliptic equation in the plane under very weak assumption on the integrability of the elliptic coefficients. Our investigation reveals that the modulus of…
In this paper we give a geometric interpretation of the second fundamental form of the period map of curves and we use it to improve the upper bounds on the dimension of a totally geodesic subvariety Y of A_g generically contained in the…
We describe families of MLDEs whose solutions are modular forms of level one that converge, $2$-adically, to a Hauptmodul on $\Gamma_0(2)$ by using a theorem of Serre. Then, we apply this to show that the image of the character map on the…
We show a non-vanishing result for the averages of L-functions associated with the orthogonal basis of the space of cusp forms of vector-valued modular forms on the full group. We also show the existence of at least one basis element whose…
We explore the structure of the moduli space of vacua of Improved Bifundamentals, a recently introduced class of superconformal field theories. Utilizing the Hilbert Series, computed as a specific limit of the Superconformal Index, we…
Let $G$ be a compact connected semisimple Lie group. We extend the techniques of Weinstein [W] to give a construction in group cohomology of symplectic forms $\omega$ on \lq twisted' moduli spaces of representations of the fundamental group…
In the 1960's Igusa determined the graded ring of Siegel modular forms of genus two. He used theta series to construct $\chi_{5}$, the cusp form of lowest weight for the group $\operatorname{Sp}(2;Z)$. In 2010 Gritsenko found three towers…
We use covariants of binary sextics to describe the structure of modules of scalar-valued or vector-valued Siegel modular forms of degree 2 with character, over the ring of scalar-valued Siegel modular forms of even weight. For a modular…
We construct a ring of meromorphic Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and level 5, with singularities supported on an arrangement of Humbert surfaces, which is generated by four singular theta lifts of weights 1, 1, 2, 2 and their Jacobian.…
We study natural D-modules on the moduli stack of elliptic curves over a field of characteristic zero. We use this to produce an algebro-geometric version of the algebra of higher depth mock modular forms, studied from a Conformal Field…
We extend methods of Greenberg and the author to compute in the cohomology of a Shimura curve defined over a totally real field with arbitrary class number. Via the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence, we thereby compute systems of Hecke…
