Duke, Imamoglu, and Toth constructed a polyharmonic Maass form of level 4 whose Fourier coefficients encode real quadratic class numbers. A more general construction of such forms was subsequently given by Bruinier, Funke, and Imamoglu.…
For arbitrary level $N$, we relate the generating series of codimension 2 special cycles on $\mathcal{X}_{0}(N)$ to the derivatives of a genus 2 Eisenstein series, especially the singular terms of both sides. On the analytic side, we use…
The basis elements spanning the Sato Grassmannian element corresponding to the KP $\tau$-function that serves as generating function for rationally weighted Hurwitz numbers are shown to be Meijer $G$-functions. Using their Mellin-Barnes…
Let p be a prime number. The Hasse invariant is a modular form modulo p that is often used to produce congruences between modular forms of different weights. We show how to produce such congruences between forms of weights 2 and p+1, in…
Modular graph functions are $SL(2,{\mathbb Z})$-invariant functions associated with Feynman graphs of a two-dimensional conformal field theory on a torus of modulus $\tau$. For one-loop graphs they reduce to real analytic Eisenstein series.…
We deepen the study of the relations previously established by Mayer, Lewis and Zagier, and the authors, among the eigenfunctions of the transfer operators of the Gauss and the Farey maps, the solutions of the Lewis-Zagier three-term…
Superconformal indices of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge theories factorize into holomorphic blocks. We interpret this as a modular property resulting from the combined action of an $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ and $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})\ltimes…
The partition function of a massless scalar field on a Euclidean spacetime manifold $\mathbb{R}^{d-1}\times\mathbb{T}^2$ and with momentum operator in the compact spatial dimension coupled through a purely imaginary chemical potential is…
In their 2015 paper, Mertens and Rolen prove that for a certain level 6 "almost holomorphic" modular function $P$, the degree of $P(\tau)$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ for quadratic $\tau$ is as large as expected, settling a conjecture of Bruinier and…
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 give an explicit description of toric sheaves on the weighted projective plane $\mathbb{P}(a,b,c)$ viewed as a toric Deligne-Mumford stack. The integers $(a,b,c)$ are not necessarily chosen coprime or mutually coprime allowing for gerbe…
For functions $f: \mathcal{P}\rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ on partitions, Bloch and Okounkov defined a power series $\langle f\rangle_q$ that is the "weighted average" of $f$. As Fourier series in $q=e^{2\pi i z}$, such $q$-brackets generate the…
We prove the following statement about any Siegel modular form $F$ of degree $n$ and arbitrary odd level $N$ on the group $\Gamma_{0}^{(n)}(N)$. Let $A(F,T)$ denote the Fourier coefficients of $F$ and write $T=(T(i,j))$. Suppose that $F$…
In this paper, we compute for odd fundamental discriminants $D>1$ the Fourier expansion of non-holomorphic elliptic Eisenstein series for $\Gamma_0(D)$ with quadratic nebentypus character $\chi_D$ satisfying a certain plus space condition.…
In [B-G1] and [B-G2], Borisov and Gunnells constructed for each level (N > 1) and for each weight (k > 1) a modular symbol with values in $Sk(\Gamma_1(N))$ using products of Eisenstein series. In this paper we generalize this result by…
Gives the most precise available description of the p-Frattini module for any p-perfect finite group G=G_0 (Thm. 2.8), and therefore of the groups G_{k,ab}, k \ge 0, from which we form the abelianized M(odular) T(ower). \S 4 includes a…
We consider logarithmic vector- and matrix-valued modular forms of integral weight $k$ associated with a $p$-dimensional representation $\rho: SL_2(\mathbb{Z}) \to GL_p(\mathbb{C})$ of the modular group, subject only to the condition that…
In this note, we study the arithmetic nature of values of modular functions, meromorphic modular forms and meromorphic quasi-modular forms with respect to arbitrary congruence subgroups, that have algebraic Fourier coefficients. This…
We investigate certain Eisenstein congruences, as predicted by Harder, for level p paramodular forms of genus 2. We use algebraic modular forms to generate new evidence for the conjecture. In doing this we see explicit computational…
In this article, we are interested in modular forms with non-vanishing central critical values and linear independence of Fourier coefficients of modular forms. The main ingredient is a generalization of a theorem due to VanderKam to…
