Utilizing the theory of the Poisson transform, we develop some new concrete models for the Hecke theory in a space $M_{\lambda}(N)$ of Maass forms with eigenvalue $1/4-\lambda^2$ on a congruence subgroup $\Gamma_1(N)$. We introduce the…

We prove an algebraic property of the elements defining Hecke operators on period polynomials associated with modular forms, which implies that the pairing on period polynomials corresponding to the Petersson scalar product of modular forms…

In this paper we obtain explicit formulas for the traces of Hecke operators on spaces of cusp forms in certain instances related to arithmetic triangle groups. These expressions are in terms of hypergeometric character sums over finite…

In a previous paper, we obtained a general trace formula for double coset operators acting on modular forms for congruence subgroups, expressed as a sum over conjugacy classes. Here we specialize it to the congruence subgroups $\Gamma_0(N)$…

In the literature, the standard approach to finding bases of spaces of modular forms is via modular symbols and the homology of modular curves. By using the Eichler-Shimura isomorphism, a work by Wang shows how one can use a cohomological…

We define Hecke correspondences and Hecke operators on unitary RZ spaces and study their basic geometric properties, including a commutativity conjecture on Hecke operators. Then we formulate the Arithmetic Fundamental Lemma conjecture for…

We give a short proof of the trace formula for Hecke operators on modular forms for the modular group, using the action of Hecke operators on the space of period polynomials.

Dedekind symbols generalize the classical Dedekind sums (symbols). The symbols are determined uniquely by their reciprocity laws up to an additive constant. There is a natural isomorphism between the space of Dedekind symbols with…

In this paper an explicit formula is given for a sequence of numbers. The positivity of this sequence of numbers implies that zeros in the critical strip of the Euler product of Hecke polynomials, which are associated with the space of cusp…

Let $k\ge 2$ and $N\ge 1$ be integers. Let $D$ be a positive integer that is congruent to a square modulo $4N$, and fix $\rho$ with $\rho^2\equiv D\pmod{4N}$. In this paper, we consider two weight $2k$ cusp forms $f^{\pm}_{k,N,D,\rho}$ on…

We develop an explicit theory of formal modular forms over arbitrary number fields $K$, as functions of modular points. We define modular points for $\Gamma_0({\mathfrak n})$ and $\Gamma_1({\mathfrak n})$, where the level ${\mathfrak n}$ is…

We compute generators and relations for a certain $2$-adic Hecke algebra of level $8$ associated with the double cover of $\mathrm{SL}_2$ and a $2$-adic Hecke algebra of level $4$ associated with $\mathrm{PGL}_2$. We show that these two…

We study N = 2 superconformal theories with gauge group SU(N) and 2N fundamental flavours in a locus of the Coulomb branch with a Z_N symmetry. In this special vacuum, we calculate the prepotential, the dual periods and the period matrix…

Let F be a real quadratic field with ring of integers O and with class number 1. Let Gamma be a congruence subgroup of GL_2 (O). We describe a technique to compute the action of the Hecke operators on the cohomology H^3 (Gamma; C). For F…

We construct explicit differential operators on hermitian modular forms, extending methods developed for Siegel modular forms. These differential operators are closely related to the two-variable spherical pluriharmonic polynomials. We…

In this mostly expository note, we prove explicit formulas for the traces of Hecke operators on spaces of cusp forms fixed by Atkin-Lehner involutions, which are suitable for efficient implementation. In addition, we correct a couple of…
