The modular forms are revisited from a geometric and an algebraic point of view leading to a geometric interpretation of the weak Maass forms connecting them to the Ramanujan Mock Theta functions and to the cusp forms generated from the…
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…
The transfer operator for $\Gamma_0(N)$ and trivial character $\chi_0$ possesses a finite group of symmetries generated by permutation matrices $P$ with $P^2=id$. Every such symmetry leads to a factorization of the Selberg zeta function in…
We define one-parameter "massive" deformations of Maass forms and Jacobi forms. This is inspired by descriptions of plane gravitational waves in string theory. Examples include massive Green's functions (that we write in terms of…
We prove two principal results. Firstly, we characterise Maass forms in terms of functional equations for Dirichlet series twisted by primitive characters. The key point is that the twists are allowed to be meromorphic. This weakened…
Let $p$ be a prime and let $S_2(\Gamma(p))$ be the space of weight $2$ cusp forms for the principal congruence subgroup $\Gamma(p)$. Then $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{F}_p)$ acts on $S_2(\Gamma(p))$ in a natural way. Around 1928, Hecke proved…
We consider the family of Rankin-Selberg convolution L-functions of a fixed SL(3, Z) Maass form with the family of Hecke-Maass cusp forms on SL(2, Z). We estimate the second moment of this family of L-functions with a "long" integration in…
We consider invariant hyperfunctions associated to automorphic forms on the upper half plane. We give two interpretations of the period function of Maass forms introduced by Lewis. The first interpretation shows that the period function…
We classify all primes appearing in the denominators of the Hauptmodul $J$ and modular forms for non-arithmetic triangle groups with a cusp. These primes have a congruence condition in terms of the order of the generators of the group. As a…
Recent works, mostly related to Ramanujan's mock theta functions, make use of the fact that harmonic weak Maass forms can be combinatorial generating functions. Generalizing works of Waldspurger, Kohnen and Zagier, we prove that such forms…
In this paper, we study traces of Hecke operators on Drinfeld modular forms of level 1 in the case $A = \mathbb{F}_q[T]$. We deduce closed-form expressions for traces of Hecke operators corresponding to primes of degree at most 2 and…
We examine the adjacency matrices of three-regular graphs representing one-face maps. Numerical studies reveal that the limiting eigenvalue statistics of these matrices are the same as those of much larger, and more widely studied classes…
Let $\pi$ be a Hecke-Maass cusp form for $SL(3,\mathbb Z)$ and $f$ be a holomorphic (or Maass) Hecke form for $SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. In this paper we prove the following subconvex bound $$ L\left(\tfrac{1}{2}+it,\pi\times…
Let G be a finite group of Lie type, defined over a field k of characteristic p > 0. We find explicit bounds for the dimension of the first cohomology group for G with coefficients in a simple kG-module. We proceed by bounding the number of…
Suppose $\pi_1$ and $\pi_2$ are two Hecke-Maass cusp forms for $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ such that for all primitive character $\chi$ we have $$ L(\tfrac{1}{2},\pi_1\otimes\chi)=L(\tfrac{1}{2},\pi_2\otimes\chi). $$ Then we show that $\pi_1=\pi_2$.
We show that, in a restricted range, the divisor function of integers in residue classes modulo a prime follows a Gaussian distribution, and a similar result for Hecke eigenvalues of classical holomorphic cusp forms. Furthermore, we obtain…
We prove variation and oscillation $L^p$-inequalities associated with fractional derivatives of certain semigroups of operators and with the family of truncations of Riesz transforms in the inverse Gaussian setting. We also study these…
Fix $g$ a self-dual Hecke-Maass form for $SL_3(\mathbb{Z})$. Let $f$ be a holomorphic newform of prime level $q$ and fixed weight. Conditional on a lower bound for a short sum of squares of Fourier coefficients of $f$, we prove a…
Let $S_2^*(q)$ be the set of primitive Hecke eigenforms of weight 2 and prime level $q$. For $p$ prime and $t\in \mathbb{R}$, we prove asymptotic formulas for the sums $$ \mathcal {A}(p^j,q,t)=\sum_{f\in S_2^*(q)}…
We apply the method of eigenfamilies to construct new explicit complex-valued p-harmonic functions on the non-compact classical Lie groups, equipped with their natural semi-Riemannian metrics. We then employ this same approach to…
