Let $f$ be a normalized newform of weight 2 on $\Gamma_0(N)$ whose coefficients lie in $\mathbb{Q}$ and let $\chi_M$ be a primitive quadratic Dirichlet character with conductor $M$. In this paper, under mild assumptions on $M$, we give a…

We examine the Fourier coefficients of modular forms in a canonical basis for the spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weights 4, 6, 8, 10, and 14, and show that these coefficients are often highly divisible by the primes 2, 3, and…

Let $f$ be a primitive cusp form of weight $k$ and level $N,$ let $\chi$ be a Dirichlet character of conductor coprime with $N,$ and let $\mathfrak{L}(f\otimes \chi, s)$ denote either $\log L(f\otimes \chi, s)$ or $(L'/L)(f\otimes \chi,…

This was originally an appendix to our paper `Fourier expansions at cusps' [arXiv:1807.00391]. The purpose of this note is to give a proof of a theorem of Shimura on the action of $\mathrm{Aut}(\mathbb{C})$ on modular forms for $\Gamma(N)$…

In the 1980s B\"ocherer formulated a conjecture relating the central values of the imaginary quadratic twists of the spin L-function attached to a Siegel modular form $F$ to the Fourier coefficients of $F$. This conjecture has been proved…

We consider weighted Chebyshev polynomials on the unit circle corresponding to a weight of the form $(z-1)^s$ where $s>0$. For integer values of $s$ this corresponds to prescribing a zero of the polynomial on the boundary. As such, we…

We give congruences modulo powers of 2 for the Fourier coefficients of certain level 2 modular functions with poles only at 0, answering a question posed by Andersen and the first author. The congruences involve a modulus that depends on…

Fix $g$ a self-dual Hecke-Maass form for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $f$ be a holomorphic newform of prime level $q$ and fixed weight. Conditional on a lower bound for a short sum of squares of Fourier coefficients of $f$, we prove a…

Let $\lambda(n)$ be the normalized n-th Fourier coefficient of a holomorphic cusp form for the full modular group. We show that for some constant $C > 0$ depending on the cusp form and every fixed $c$ in the range $1 < c < 8/7$, the mean…

Chebyshev presented a conjecture after observing the apparent bias towards primes congruent to $3\pmod 4$. His conjecture is equivalent to a version of the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis. Fujii strengthened this conjecture; we strengthen it…

We prove the functional equation for the twisted spinor L-series of a cuspidal, holomorphic Siegel eigenform for the full modular group of genus 2. It follows from a more general functional equation, valid for Rankin convolutions of…

Recently, a strong exponential character bound has been established in [3] for all elements $g \in \mathbf{G}^F$ of a finite reductive group $\mathbf{G}^F$ which satisfy the condition that the centraliser $C_{\mathbf{G}}(g)$ is contained in…

We study the one-level density for families of L-functions associated with cubic Dirichlet characters defined over the Eisenstein field. We show that the family of $L$-functions associated with the cubic residue symbols $\chi_n$ with $n$…

We consider the Mellin transforms of certain Chebyshev functions based upon the Chebyshev polynomials. We show that the transforms have polynomial factors whose zeros lie all on the critical line or on the real line. The polynomials with…

We prove that the central values of additive twists of a cuspidal $L$-function define a quantum modular form in the sense of Zagier, generalizing recent results of Bettin and Drappeau. From this we deduce a reciprocity law for the twisted…

Let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n \geq 1}$ be the normalized Hecke eigenvalues of a given holomorphic cusp form $f$ of even weight $k$. We show under the assumption of the existence of Littlewood's type zero free region for $L(s, f, \chi)$, where…

By refining an idea of Farrell, we present a sufficient condition in terms of the Jiang subgroup for the vanishing of signature and Hirzebruch's $\chi_y$-genus on compact smooth and K\"{a}hler manifolds respectively. Along this line we show…

After Zagier proved that the traces of singular moduli $j(z)$ are Fourier coefficients of a weakly holomorphic modular form, various properties of the traces of the singular values of modular functions mostly on the full modular group…

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 show that if a modular cuspidal eigenform $f$ of weight $2k$ is $2$-adically close to an elliptic curve $E/\mathbb{Q}$, which has a cyclic rational $4$-isogeny, then $n$-th Fourier coefficient of $f$ is non-zero in the short interval…
