Abstract. Let M k (N ) be the space of weakly holomorphic modular forms for Γ 0 (N ) that are holomorphic at all cusps except possibly at ∞. We study a canonical basis for M k (2) and M k (3) and prove that almost all modular forms in this basis have the property that the majority of their zeros in a fundamental domain lie on a lower boundary arc of the fundamental domain.
In 2013, Lemke Oliver classified all eta-quotients which are theta functions. In this paper, we unify the eta-theta functions by constructing mock modular forms from the eta-theta functions with even characters, such that the shadows of these mock modular forms are given by the eta-theta functions with odd characters. In addition, we prove that our mock modular forms are quantum modular forms. As corollaries, we establish simple finite hypergeometric expressions which may be used to evaluate Eichler integrals of the odd eta-theta functions, as well as some curious algebraic identities.
In 1920, Ramanujan wrote to Hardy about his discovery of the mock theta functions. In the years since, there has been much work in understanding the transformation properties and asymptotic nature of these functions. Recently, Zwegers proved a relationship between mock theta functions and vector-valued modular forms, and Bringmann and Ono used the theory of Maass forms and Poincaré series to prove a conjecture of Andrews, yielding an exact formula for the coefficients of the f(q) mock theta function. Here we build upon these results, using the theory of vector-valued modular forms and Poincaré series to prove an exact formula for the coefficients of the ω(q) mock theta function.
Abstract. The zeros of classical Eisenstein series satisfy many intriguing properties. Work of F. Rankin and Swinnerton-Dyer pinpoints their location to a certain arc of the fundamental domain, and recent work by Nozaki explores their interlacing property. In this paper we extend these distribution properties to a particular family of Eisenstein series on Γ(2) because of its elegant connection to a classical Jacobi elliptic function cn(u) which satisfies a differential equation. As part of this study we recursively define a sequence of polynomials from the differential equation mentioned above that allows us to calculate zeros of these Eisenstein series. We end with a result linking the zeros of these Eisenstein series to an L-series.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
