Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono conjectured that every prime-detecting quasimodular form of level $1$ is a quasimodular Eisenstein series. This conjecture was proved by Kane--Krishnamoorthy--Lau and by van Ittersum--Mauth--Ono--Singh…

Building on the results of Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono, we provide a refined understanding of MacMahon's partition functions and their variants, including their quasi-modular properties and new prime-detecting expressions.

Motivated by weighted partition of $n$ that vanish if and only if $n$ is a prime, Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono conjecture a classification of quasimodular forms which detect primes in the sense that the $n$-th Fourier coefficient vanishes…

We identify a class of "semi-modular" forms invariant on special subgroups of $GL_2(\mathbb Z)$, which includes classical modular forms together with complementary classes of functions that are also nice in a specific sense. We define an…

By the theory of Eisenstein series, generating functions of various divisor functions arise as modular forms. It is natural to ask whether further divisor functions arise systematically in the theory of mock modular forms. We establish,…

In a previous work, the authors resolved a conjecture about the structure of prime-detecting quasi-modular forms by studying sign changes occurring in quasi-modular cusp forms. In this paper, we extend the considerations to prime-detecting…

In this paper, we prove that there are infinitely many primes of the form $\ell^2 - \ell m + m^2$ such that $2\ell - m$ is also prime. To prove this, we follow along the lines of the work of Fouvry and Iwaniec (1997) who showed that there…

We prove the existence of a module for the largest Mathieu group, whose trace functions are weight two quasimodular forms. Restricting to the subgroup fixing a point, we see that the integrality of these functions is equivalent to certain…

Recent work by Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono constructs explicit expressions in the partition functions of MacMahon that detect the prime numbers. Furthermore, they define generalizations, the MacMahonesque functions, and prove there are…

For each prime $\ell$, let $|\cdot|_\ell$ be an extension to $\bar \Q$ of the usual $\ell$-adic absolute value on $\Q$. Suppose $g(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty c(n)q^n \in M_{k+\half}(N)$ is an eigenform whose Fourier coefficients are algebraic…

We give explicit expressions for MacMahon's generalized sums-of-divisors $q$-series $A_r$ and $C_r$ by relating them to (odd) multiple Eisenstein series. Recently, these sums-of-divisors have been studied in the context of quasimodular…

We introduce the algebra of formal multiple Eisenstein series and study its derivations. This algebra is motivated by the classical multiple Eisenstein series, introduced by Gangl-Kaneko-Zagier as a hybrid of classical Eisenstein series and…

This article is divided in two parts. In the first part we endow a certain ring of ``Drinfeld quasi-modular forms'' for $\GL_2(\FF_q[T])$ (where $q$ is a power of a prime) with a system of "divided derivatives" (or hyperderivations). This…

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 compute modular Galois representations associated with a newform $f$, and study the related problem of computing the coefficients of $f$ modulo a small prime $\ell$. To this end, we design a practical variant of the complex…

We show that integer partitions, the fundamental building blocks in additive number theory, detect prime numbers in an unexpected way. Answering a question of Schneider, we show that the primes are the solutions to special equations in…

In this paper, we explore a two-way connection between quasimodular forms of depth $1$ and a class of second-order modular differential equations with regular singularities on the upper half-plane and the cusps. Here we consider the cases…

We define a notion of modular forms of half-integral weight on the quaternionic exceptional groups. We prove that they have a well-behaved notion of Fourier coefficients, which are complex numbers defined up to multiplication by $\pm 1$. We…

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…

We study quasimodular forms of depth $\leq4$ and determine under which conditions they occur as solutions of modular differential equations. Furthermore, we study which modular differential equations have quasimodular solutions. We use…
