In this paper we study formal moduli for wildly ramified Galois covering. We prove a local-global principle. We then focus on the infinitesimal deformations of the Z/pZ-covers. We explicitly compute a deformation of an automorphism of order…
The theories of hypergeometric functions and modular forms are highly intertwined. For example, particular values of truncated hypergeometric functions and hypergeometric character sums are often congruent or equal to Fourier coefficients…
The purpose of this paper is to prove that a primitive Hilbert cusp form $\mathbf{g}$ is uniquely determined by the central values of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions $L(\mathbf{f}\otimes\mathbf{g}, \frac{1}{2})$, where $\mathbf{f}$ runs…
We work out the exact relationship between algebraic modular forms for a two-by-two general unitary group over a definite quaternion algebra, and those arising from genera of positive-definite quinary lattices, relating stabilisers of local…
We prove in some cases a formula for the Greenberg-Benois $\mathcal{L}$-invariant of the spin, standard and adjoint Galois representations associated with Siegel-Hilbert modular forms. In order to simplify the calculation, we give a new…
We prove a reciprocity type formula for the fourth moment of L-functions associated to holomorphic primitive cusp forms of level one and large weight which relates it to the eighth moment of the Riemann zeta function and the dual weighted…
Topologically twisted $\mathcal{N} = 4$ super Yang-Mills theory has a partition function that counts Euler numbers of instanton moduli spaces. On the manifold $\mathbb{P}^2$ and with gauge group $\mathrm{U}(3)$ this partition function has a…
The present notes are the expanded and polished version of three lectures given in Stanford, concerning the analytic and arithmetic properties of weight one modular forms. The author tried to write them in a style accessible to…
Given a cuspidal Hilbert modular eigenform $\pi$ of parallel weight 2 and a nonarchimedian place $\mathfrak p$ of the underlying totally real field such that the local component of $\pi$ at $\mathfrak p$ is the Steinberg representation, one…
We study super Yang-Mills theories on five-dimensional Sasaki-Einstein manifolds. Using localisation techniques, we find that the contribution from the vector multiplet to the perturbative partition function can be calculated by counting…
We perform a systematic variational method for functionals depending on eigenvalues of Riemannian manifolds. It is based on a new concept of Palais Smale sequences that can be constructed thanks to a generalization of classical min-max…
Given a pair of $\mathbb{Z}_2$-harmonic spinors (resp. 1-forms) on closed Riemannian 3-manifolds $(Y_1, g_1)$ and $(Y_2,g_2)$, we construct $\mathbb{Z}_2$-harmonic spinors (resp. 1-forms) on the connected sum $Y_1 \# Y_2$ and the torus sum…
This article is a research exposition based on the author's talk at the International Colloquium on Automorphic Representations and L-Functions, 2012, held at TIFR, Mumbai. We consider some special cases of the following question: when is a…
We present a proof of Selberg's Central Limit Theorem for automorphic $L$-functions of degree 2 using Radziwi\l\l\space and Soundararajan's method. Additionally, we prove the independence of the automorphic $L$-functions associated with the…
We prove that the modular symbols appropriately normalized and ordered have a Gaussian distribution for all cofinite subgroups of SL_2(R). We use spectral deformations to study the poles and the residues of Eisenstein series twisted by…
This paper provides some statistics for the coefficients of Russell- Type modular equations for the modular function, {\lambda}({\tau}). The results hold uniformly for all odd primes. They do not rely on any numerical evaluations of…
For triangle groups, the (quasi-)automorphic forms are known just as explicitly as for the modular group SL$(2,\bbZ)$. We collect these expressions here, and then interpret them using the Halphen differential equation. We study the…
In this paper, we prove that a primitive Hilbert cusp form $\mathbf{g}$ is uniquely determined by the central values of the Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions $L(\mathbf{f}\otimes\mathbf{g}, \frac{1}{2})$, where $\mathbf{f}$ runs through all…
We study a notion of cusp forms for the symmetric spaces G/H with G = SL(n,R) and H = S(GL(n-1,R) x GL(1,R)). We classify all minimal parabolic subgroups of G for which the associated cuspidal integrals are convergent and discuss the…
In this paper, we prove the existence of an efficient algorithm for the computation of $q$-expansions of modular forms of weight $k$ and level $\Gamma$, where $\Gamma \subseteq SL_{2}({\mathbb{Z}})$ is an arbitrary congruence subgroup. We…
