Modular forms

Weakly holomorphic modular form

In mathematics, a weakly holomorphic modular form is similar to a holomorphic modular form, except that it is allowed to have poles at cusps. Examples include modular functions and modular forms. (Wikipedia).

Modular forms: Classification

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We first show that the number of zeros of a (level 1 holomorphic) modular form in a fundamental domain is weight/12, and use this to show that the graded ring of modular forms is the ring of polynomials in E4 and E6. Fo

Modular forms: Eisenstein series

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We give two ways of looking at modular forms: as functions of lattices in C, or as invariant forms. We use this to give two different ways of constructing Eisenstein series. For the other lectures in the course see http

Modular forms: Modular functions

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We classify all meromorphic modular functions, showing that they are all rational functions of the elliptic modular function j. As an application of j we use it to prove Picard's theorem that a non-constant meromorphic

Francis Brown: Modular graph functions and non holomorphic modular forms

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program: Periods in Number Theory, Algebraic Geometry and Physics. Abstract: Modular graph functions are non-holomorphic modular forms arising from string perturbation theory in genus 1 studied by Green, Russo, Vanhove,

In this talk we give an introduction to the study of generating series of the traces of CM values and geodesic cycle integrals of different modular functions. First we define modular forms and harmonic Maass forms. Then we briefly discuss the theory of theta lifts that gives a conceptual f

In the `Esquisse d'un programme', Grothendieck proposed studying the action of the absolute Galois group upon the system of profinite fundamental groups of moduli spaces of curves of genus g with n marked points. Around 1990, Ihara, Drinfeld and Deligne independently initiated the study of

Modular forms: Discriminant and E2

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on modular forms. We discuss the infinite product of the discriminant function and relate it to the fact that the Eisenstein series E2 is not quite a modular form. We then sketch Siegel's proof of the infinite product for the discriminant
