Poincar\'e square series for the Weil representation

Number Theory 2018-09-28 v2

Abstract

We calculate the Jacobi Eisenstein series of weight k3k \ge 3 for a certain representation of the Jacobi group, and evaluate these at z=0z = 0 to give coefficient formulas for a family of modular forms Qk,m,βQ_{k,m,\beta} of weight k5/2k \ge 5/2 for the (dual) Weil representation on an even lattice. The forms we construct always contain all cusp forms within their span. We explain how to compute the representation numbers in the coefficient formulas for Qk,m,βQ_{k,m,\beta} and the Eisenstein series of Bruinier and Kuss pp-adically to get an efficient algorithm. The main application is in constructing automorphic products.
