We study p-divisibility of discriminants of Hecke algebras associated to spaces of cusp forms of prime level. We make a precise conjecture about the indexes of Hecke algebras in their normalisation which implies (if true) the conjecture…

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…

We express the Frobenius-Hecke traces on the compactly supported cohomology of a Shimura variety of abelian type in terms of elliptic parts of stable Arthur-Selberg trace formulas for the endoscopic groups. This confirms predictions of…

Let $p$ be a prime for which the congruence group $\Gamma_0(p)^*$ is of genus zero, and $j_p^*$ be the corresponding Hauptmodul. Let $f$ be a nearly holomorphic modular form of weight 1/2 on $\Gamma_0(4p)$ which satisfies some congruence…

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.

We show that, under suitable assumptions, the systems of Hecke eigenvalues arising from (mod p) modular forms of PEL-type associated to an algebraic group G of type A or C coincide with the Hecke eigensystems arising from (mod p) algebraic…

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…

Let E_lambda be a Hilbert space, whose elements are functions spanned by the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator associated with an eigenvalue lambda>0. The norm of elements in this space is given by the Petersson inner product.…

We present here simple trace formulas for Hecke operators $T_k(p)$ for all $p>3$ on $S_k(\Gamma_0(3))$ and $S_k(\Gamma_0(9))$, the spaces of cusp forms of weight $k$ and levels 3 and 9. These formulas can be expressed in terms of special…

The trace formula is a versatile tool for computing sums of spectral data across families of automorphic forms. Using specialized test functions, one can treat small families with refined spectral properties. This has proven fruitful in…

We elaborate an explicit version of the relative trace formula on $\PGL(2)$ over a totally real number field for the toral periods of Hilbert cusp forms along the diagonal split torus. As an application, we prove (i) a spectral…

We study the cohomology of certain local systems on moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian surfaces with a level 2 structure. The trace of Frobenius on the alternating sum of the \'etale cohomology groups of these local systems can…

In this paper we give a trace formula for Hecke operators acting on the cohomology of a Fuchsian group of finite covolume, with coefficients in a module $V$. The proof is based on constructing an operator whose trace on $V$ equals the…

We calculate the action of some Hecke operators on spaces of modular forms spanned by the Siegel theta-series of certain genera of strongly modular lattices closely related to the Leech lattice. Their eigenforms provide explicit examples of…

We consider sums of Hurwitz class numbers of the type $\sum_{t \equiv m \pmod{M}}H(4p-t^2)$, where $M$ is composite. For $M=6$ and $8$, we show that these sums can be expressed in terms of coefficients of CM cusp forms. This leads to…

We prove a higher order asymptotic formula for traces of finite block Toeplitz matrices with symbols belonging to H\"older-Zygmund spaces. The remainder in this formula goes to zero very rapidly for very smooth symbols. This formula refine…

Ash, Grayson, and Green [J. Number Theory 19 (1984), pp. 412-436] compute the action of Hecke operators on a certain subspace of the cohomology of low-level congruence subgroups of $\mathsf{SL}(3, \mathbb{Z})$. This subspace contains the…

We give an upper bound for the trace of a Hecke operator acting on the space of holomorphic cusp forms with respect to certain congruence subgroups. Such an estimate has applications to the analytic theory of elliptic curves over a finite…

We investigate certain Eisenstein congruences, as predicted by Harder, for level p paramodular forms of genus 2. We use algebraic modular forms to generate new evidence for the conjecture. In doing this we see explicit computational…

A certain generalization of the Selberg trace formula was proved by the first named author in 1999. In this generalization instead of considering the integral of $K(z,z)$ (where $K(z,w)$ is an automorphic kernel function) over the…
