In order to considering the integrality of nearly holomorphic (vector-valued) Siegel modular forms, we introduce nearly Siegel modular forms and study their integrality. We show that the integrality of nearly Siegel modular forms in terms…
We prove several dimension formulas for spaces of scalar-valued Siegel modular forms of degree $2$ with respect to certain congruence subgroups of level $4$. In case of cusp forms, all modular forms considered originate from cuspidal…
A one-dimensional gas model has been constructed and shown to provide correct expressions for entropies for extremal and near-extremal BTZ black holes. Recently suggested boosting of black strings is used to compute the entropy for the…
We reconsider the four dimensional extremal black hole constructed in type IIB string theory as the bound state of D1-branes, D5-branes, momentum, and Kaluza-Klein monopoles. Specifically, we examine the case of an arbitrary number of…
The microscopic formula for the degeneracies of 1/8 BPS black holes in type II string theory compactified on a six dimensional torus can be expressed as a sum of several terms. One of the terms is a function of the Cremmer-Julia invariant…
This article is a research exposition based on the author's talk at the International Colloquium on Automorphic Representations and L-Functions, 2012, held at TIFR, Mumbai. We consider some special cases of the following question: when is a…
In this paper we define a new type of modular object and construct explicit examples of such functions. Our functions are closely related to cusp forms constructed by Zagier which played an important role in the construction by Kohnen and…
A scheme for calculating corrections to all orders to the entropy of any thermodynamic system due to statistical fluctuations around equilibrium has been developed. It is then applied to the BTZ black hole, AdS-Schwarzschild black Hole and…
We apply the complex scaling method to black-hole perturbations in four-dimensional Schwarzschild--de~Sitter (dS) spacetimes. The method converts the outgoing-wave boundary-value problem into a non-Hermitian spectral problem and enables…
We review the status of microscopic counting of rotating black hole degrees of freedom. We present two complementary approaches which both utilize the near-horizon geometry and precisely reproduce the Bekenstein Hawking entropy for…
We determine the ring structure of Siegel modular forms of degree g modulo a prime p, extending Nagaoka's result in the case of degree g=2. We characterize U(p) congruences of Jacobi forms and Siegel modular forms, and surprisingly find…
We prove that there exist exactly eight Siegel modular forms with respect to the congruence subgroups of Hecke type of the paramodular groups of genus two vanishing precisely along the diagonal of the Siegel upper half-plane. This is a…
In this paper we will give a general introduction to the role of conformal symmetry in the microscopic interpretation of black hole entropy and then compute the entropy of a Schwarzschild black hole by finding a classical central charge of…
We refine and extend a recent construction of sets of black hole microstates with semiclassical interiors that span a Hilbert space of dimension $e^S$, where $S$ is the black hole entropy. We elaborate on the definition and properties of…
We propose a program for counting microstates of four-dimensional BPS black holes in N >= 2 supergravities with symmetric-space valued scalars by exploiting the symmetries of timelike reduction to three dimensions. Inspired by the…
We investigate the growth of Fourier coefficients of Siegel paramodular forms built by exponentially lifting weak Jacobi forms, focusing on terms with large negative discriminant. To this end we implement a method based on deforming…
We study the contribution to entropy of Black Holes in D=2+1 dimensions from an extension of the Chern Simons theory including higher derivative in a curved space-time.
In several recent publications Carlip, as well as Balachandran, Chandar and Momen, have proposed a statistical mechanical interpretation for black hole entropy in terms of ``would be gauge'' degrees of freedom that become dynamical on the…
We study spin models on Euclidean black hole backgrounds. These resemble the Ising model, but are inhomogeneous with two parameters, the black hole mass and the cosmological constant. We use Monte-Carlo methods to study macroscopic…
Throughout the 1980's, Kudla and the second named author studied integral transforms from rapidly decreasing closed differential forms on arithmetic quotients of the symmetric spaces of orthogonal and unitary groups to spaces of classical…
