    Computing automorphic forms on Shimura curves over fields with arbitrary class number

    Full text link
    We extend methods of Greenberg and the author to compute in the cohomology of a Shimura curve defined over a totally real field with arbitrary class number. Via the Jacquet-Langlands correspondence, we thereby compute systems of Hecke eigenvalues associated to Hilbert modular forms of arbitrary level over a totally real field of odd degree. We conclude with two examples which illustrate the effectiveness of our algorithms.Comment: 15 pages; final submission to ANTS I

    Computing fundamental domains for the Bruhat-Tits tree for GL2(Qp), p-adic automorphic forms, and the canonical embedding of Shimura curves

    Full text link
    We describe an algorithm for computing certain quaternionic quotients of the Bruhat-Tits tree for GL2(Qp). As an application, we describe an algorithm to obtain (conjectural) equations for the canonical embedding of Shimura curves.Comment: Accepted for publication in LMS Journal of Computation and Mathematic

    Graded structures and differential operators on nearly holomorphic and quasimodular forms on classical groups

    Full text link
    We wish to use graded structures [KrVu87], [Vu01] on dffierential operators and quasimodular forms on classical groups and show that these structures provide a tool to construct p-adic measures and p-adic L-functions on the corresponding non-archimedean weight spaces. An approach to constructions of automorphic L-functions on uni-tary groups and their p-adic avatars is presented. For an algebraic group G over a number eld K these L functions are certain Euler products L(s, π\pi, r, χ\chi). In particular, our constructions cover the L-functions in [Shi00] via the doubling method of Piatetski-Shapiro and Rallis. A p-adic analogue of L(s, π\pi, r, χ\chi) is a p-adic analytic function L p (s, π\pi, r, χ\chi) of p-adic arguments s \in Z p , χ\chi mod p rPresented in a talk for the INTERNATIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE "GRADED STRUCTURES IN ALGEBRA AND THEIR APPLICATIONS" dedicated to the memory of Prof. Marc Krasner on Friday, September 23, 2016, International University Centre (IUC), Dubrovnik, Croatia

    Emergent spacetime from modular motives

    The program of constructing spacetime geometry from string theoretic modular forms is extended to Calabi-Yau varieties of dimensions two, three, and four, as well as higher rank motives. Modular forms on the worldsheet can be constructed from the geometry of spacetime by computing the L-functions associated to omega motives of Calabi-Yau varieties, generated by their holomorphic nn-forms via Galois representations. The modular forms that emerge from the omega motive and other motives of the intermediate cohomology are related to characters of the underlying rational conformal field theory. The converse problem of constructing space from string theory proceeds in the class of diagonal theories by determining the motives associated to modular forms in the category of motives with complex multiplication. The emerging picture indicates that the L-function can be interpreted as a map from the geometric category of motives to the category of conformal field theories on the worldsheet.Comment: 40 page
