The nilpotence order of the mod 2 Hecke operators. Let $\Delta=\sum_{m=0}^\infty q^{(2m+1)^2} \in F_2[[q]]$ be the reduction mod 2 of the $\Delta$ series. A modular form f modulo 2 of level 1 is a polynomial in $\Delta$. If p is an odd…
A formula for the Hurwitz zeta function at the positive integers $k$, $\zeta(k,b)$, is created by solving the real and the imaginary parts separately and then combining them. A few different formulae for the Hurwitz zeta function are known…
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 $\Gamma_0(N)$…
Let $j\geq 2$ be a given integer. Let $f$ be a normalized primitive holomorphic cusp form of even integral weight for the full modular group $\Gamma=SL(2,\mathbb{Z})$. Denote by $\lambda_{\text{sym}^{j}f}(n)$ the $n$th normalized…
Let $f$ be a primitive form of weight $2k+j-2$ for $SL_2(Z)$, and let $\mathfrak p$ be a prime ideal of the Hecke field of $f$. We denote by $SP_m(Z)$ the Siegel modular group of degree $m$. Suppose that $k \equiv 0 \mod 2, \ j \equiv 0…
In this paper we compute the generating rank of $k$-polar Grassmannians defined over commutative division rings. Among the new results, we compute the generating rank of $k$-Grassmannians arising from Hermitian forms of Witt index $n$…
Let $\mathscr{S}_k^+(\cn,\Phi)$ denote the space generated by Hilbert modular newforms (over a fixed totally real field $K$) of weight $k$, level $\cn$ and Hecke character $\Phi$. We show how to decompose $\mathscr{S}_k^+(\cn,\Phi)$ into…
We introduce the term "protonormal" to refer to a subgroup H of a group G such that for every x in G the subgroups x^{-1}Hx and H commute as sets. If moreover (G,H) is a Hecke pair we show that the Hecke algebra H(G,H) is generated by the…
We provide formulas for traces of p-th Hecke operators in level 1 in terms of values of finite field 2F1-hypergeometric functions, extending previous work of the author to all odd primes p, instead of only those p=1 (mod 12). We first give…
Using the notion of the composita, we obtain a method of solving iterative functional equations of the form $A^{2^n}(x)=F(x)$, where $F(x)=\sum_{n>0} f(n)x^n$, $f(1)\neq 0$. We prove that if $F(x)=\sum_{n>0} f(n)x^n$ has integer…
Let $m,k$ be fixed positive integers. Determining the generating function for the number of tilings of an $m\times n$ rectangle by $k\times 1$ rectangles is a long-standing open problem to which the answer is only known in certain special…
Let E_n={x_i=1, x_i+x_j=x_k, x_i*x_j=x_k: i,j,k \in {1,...,n}}. We prove: (1) there is an algorithm that for every computable function f:N-->N returns a positive integer m(f), for which a second algorithm accepts on the input f and any…
A new algorithm for computing Hecke operators for SL(n,Z) was introduced by MacPherson, McConnell in 2020. The algorithm uses tempered perfect lattices, which are certain pairs of lattices together with a quadratic form. These generalize…
Let T_{n,k}(X) be the characteristic polynomial of the n-th Hecke operator acting on the space of cusp forms of weight k for the full modular group. We show that if there exists n>1 such that T_{n,k}(X) is irreducible and has the full…
In this paper we will describe all vector-valued Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and weight ${\rm Sym}^6({\rm St}) \otimes \det^{k}({\rm St})$ with $k$ odd. These vector-valued forms constitute a module over the ring of classical Siegel…
In this paper we use generating function methods to obtain new asymptotic results about spaces of $F$-stable maximal tori in $GL_n(\overline{F_q})$, $Sp_{2n}(\overline{F_q})$, and $SO_{2n+1}(\overline{F_q})$. We recover stability results of…
The Fourier coefficients of a Maass form $\phi$ for SL$(n,\mathbb Z)$ are complex numbers $A_\phi(M)$, where $M=(m_1,m_2,\ldots,m_{n-1})$ and $m_1,m_2,\ldots ,m_{n-1}$ are nonzero integers. It is well known that coefficients of the form…
In this article, we are interested in modular forms with non-vanishing central critical values and linear independence of Fourier coefficients of modular forms. The main ingredient is a generalization of a theorem due to VanderKam to…
For a prime level $N$, we compute the index of the anemic Hecke algebra of weight 2 level $\Gamma_0(N)$ forms inside the full Hecke algebra. We prove that the index is fully described by the presence of weight 1 Katz forms of the same…
We define Hecke operators on vector valued modular forms transforming with the Weil representation associated to a discriminant form. We describe the properties of the corresponding algebra of Hecke operators and study the action on modular…
