We define Hilbert-Siegel modular forms and Hecke "operators" acting on them. As with Hilbert modular forms, these linear transformations are not linear operators until we consider a direct product of spaces of modular forms (with varying…
In this paper we construct a modular form f of weight one attached to an imaginary quadratic field K. This form, which is non-holomorphic and not a cusp form, has several curious properties. Its negative Fourier coefficients are non-zero…
In the study of the arithmetic structure of elliptic modular groups which are the fundamental groups of compactified modular curves, these truncated group algebras and their direct sums are considered to construct elliptic modular motives.…
Recently, there emerges different versions of beta function and hypergeometric functions containing extra parameters. Gaining enlightenment from these ideas, we will first introduce a new extension of generalized hypergeometric function and…
We discover a non-trivial relation between the mock modular generating functions of the level $1$ and level $N$ Hurwitz class numbers. This relation yields a holomorphic modular form of weight $\frac{3}{2}$ and level $4N$, where $N > 1$ is…
Hecke operators acting on modular functions arise naturally in the context of 2d conformal field theory, but in seemingly disparate areas, including permutation orbifold theories, ensembles of code CFTs, and more recently in the context of…
In a 1987 letter, Serre proves that the systems of Hecke eigenvalues arising from mod $p$ modular forms (of fixed level $\Gamma(N)$ coprime to $p$, and any weight $k$) are the same as those arising from functions $\Omega(N) \to \bar{\mathbb…
The aim of this paper is to show how differential characters of Abelian varieties can be used to construct differential modular forms of weight 0 and order 2 which are eigenvectors of Hecke operators. These differential modular forms have…
In this paper, we construct Hecke eigenforms for two families of quotient spaces of meromorphic cusp forms on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We show that each quotient space in the first (resp. second family) is isomorphic as a Hecke module…
We prove hypergeometric type identities for a function defined in terms of quotients of the $p$-adic gamma function. We use these identities to prove a supercongruence conjecture of Rodriguez-Villegas between a truncated $_4F_3$…
The arithmetic of Hilbert modular forms has been extensively studied under the assumption that the forms concerned are "paritious" -- all the components of the weight are congruent modulo 2. In contrast, non-paritious Hilbert modular forms…
We develop the theory of almost-holomorphic and quasimodular forms for orthogonal groups of a lattice of signature $(2,n)$ through orthogonal lowering and raising operators. The interactions with the regularized theta lift of Borcherds is a…
We define hypergeometric functions using intersection homology valued in a local system. Topology is emphasized; analysis enters only once, via the Hodge decomposition. By a pull-back procedure we construct special subsets S_{pi}, derived…
We establish an isomorphism between certain complex-valued and vector-valued modular form spaces of half-integral weight, generalizing the well-known isomorphism between modular forms for $\Gamma_0(4)$ with Kohnen's plus condition and…
In 1997 the author found a criterion for the Riemann hypothesis for the Riemann zeta function, involving the nonnegativity of certain coefficients associated with the Riemann zeta function. In 1999 Bombieri and Lagarias obtained an…
We review the emergence of hypergeometric structures (of $F_4$ Appell functions) from the conformal Ward identities (CWIs) in conformal field theories (CFTs) in dimensions $d > 2$. We illustrate the case of scalar 3- and 4-point functions.…
We investigate a Dirichlet series involving the Fourier-Jacobi coefficients of two cusp forms $F,G$ for orthogonal groups of signature $(2,n+2)$. In the case when $F$ is a Hecke eigenform and $G$ is a Maass lift of a Poincar\'e series, we…
We define a set of holomorphic functions in terms of the Hauptmodul of a quotient Riemann surface and prove that these functions are holomorphic on the upper half-plane. It is also shown that these functions are automorphic forms of weight…
We introduce an $\ell$-adic analogue of Gauss's hypergeometric function arising from the Galois action on the fundamental torsor of the projective line minus three points. Its definition is motivated by a relation between the KZ-equation…
In Part I of the present series of papers, we adumbrate our idea of Riemannian geometry to higher order in the infinitesimals and derive expressions for the appropriate generalizations of parallel transport and the Riemannian curvature…
