We consider the moduli space $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ of Riemann surfaces of genus $g\ge0$ with $n\ge1$ ordered and directed marked points. For $d\ge 2g+n-1$ we show that $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ is homotopy equivalent to a component of the…
Modular and quasimodular forms have played an important role in gravity and string theory. Eisenstein series have appeared systematically in the determination of spectrums and partition functions, in the description of non-perturbative…
We study neutrino mass generation within the framework of non-holomorphic modular symmetry proposed by Qu and Ding. In this formalism, neutrino masses are generated via the Type-I seesaw mechanism, where the Yukawa couplings depend on…
We describe connections between the Fourier coefficients of derivatives of Eisenstein series and invariants from the arithmetic geometry of the Shimura varieties $M$ associated to rational quadratic forms $(V,Q)$ of signature $(n,2)$. In…
The purpose of this paper is to show how a congruence between (the Fourier coefficients of) a Hilbert cusp form and a Hilbert Eisenstein series of parallel weight $2$ gives rise to congruences between algebraic parts of critical values of…
We study generalisations to the structure groups U(n) of the familiar (abelian) Seiberg-Witten monopole equations on a four-manifold $X$ and their moduli spaces. For $n=1$ one obtains the classical monopole equations. For $n > 1$ our…
We study the Eisenstein ideal for modular forms of even weight $k>2$ and prime level $N$. We pay special attention to the phenomenon of $\mathit{extra \ reducibility}$: the Eisenstein ideal is strictly larger than the ideal cutting out…
We show that every elliptic modular form of integral weight greater than $1$ can be expressed as linear combinations of products of at most two cusp expansions of Eisenstein series. This removes the obstruction of nonvanishing central…
We study the space of period polynomials associated with modular forms of integral weight for finite index subgroups of the modular group. For the modular group, this space is endowed with a pairing, corresponding to the Petersson inner…
The aim of this paper is to study class number relations over function fields and the intersections of Hirzebruch-Zagier type divisors on the Drinfeld-Stuhler modular surfaces. The main bridge is a particular "harmonic" theta series with…
We provide a new and simple automorphic method using Eisenstein series to study the equidistribution of modular symbols modulo primes, which we apply to prove an average version of a conjecture of Mazur and Rubin. More precisely, we prove…
We define a subspace of the space of holomorphic modular forms of weight $k+1/2$ and level $4M$ where $M$ is odd and square-free. We show that this subspace is isomorphic under the Shimura-Niwa correspondence to the space of newforms of…
Zagier proved that the traces of singular moduli, i.e., the sums of the values of the classical j-invariant over quadratic irrationalities, are the Fourier coefficients of a modular form of weight 3/2 with poles at the cusps. Using the…
We report on a computation of holomorphic cuspidal modular forms of weight one and small level (currently level at most $1500$) and classification of them according to the projective image of their attached Artin representations. The data…
This paper answers a question of Gross and others, by exhibiting specific examples of Hecke algebras where mod 2 multiplicity one fails for some modular forms, and the associated Hecke algebras are not Gorenstein. It shows that the methods…
Given a Hecke eigenform $f$ of weight $2$ and square-free level $N$, by the work of Kohnen, there is a unique weight $3/2$ modular form of level $4N$ mapping to $f$ under the Shimura correspondence. Furthermore, by the work of Waldspurger…
Let $\rho: SL(2,\mathbb{Z})\to GL(2,\mathbb{C})$ be an irreducible representation of the modular group such that $\rho(T)$ has finite order $N$. We study holomorphic vector-valued modular forms $F(\tau)$ of integral weight associated to…
In previous work, we used new mathematical relations between Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) invariants and rank 0 Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants to determine the first few terms in the generating series of Abelian D4-D2-D0 indices for a class of…
The main result of this paper is an instance of the conjecture made by Gouvea and Mazur (Math. Res. Lett., 1995) which asserts that for certain values of r the space of r-overconvergent p-adic modular forms of tame level N and weight k…
We consider spaces of modular forms attached to definite orthogonal groups of low even rank and nontrivial level, equipped with Hecke operators defined by Kneser neighbours. After reviewing algorithms to compute with these spaces, we…
