An Elementary Introduction to Siegel Modular Forms
نویسنده
چکیده
Siegel modular forms can be thought of as modular forms in more than one variable. Introduced in the 1930’s by Siegel in his analytic study of quadratic forms, they nowadays occur naturally in many unexpected places. We develop the basic theory from scratch, assuming only that the listener/reader has seen some rudiments of modular forms in one variable. We list some of the many applications and indicate some fundamental questions that are still open.

On Atkin-Lehner correspondences on Siegel spaces
We introduce a higher dimensional Atkin-Lehner theory for Siegel-Parahoric congruence subgroups of $GSp(2g)$. Old Siegel forms are induced by geometric correspondences on Siegel moduli spaces which commute with almost all local Hecke algebras. We also introduce an algorithm to get equations for moduli spaces of Siegel-Parahoric level structures, once we have equations for prime l...
متن کاملEstimating Siegel Modular Forms of Genus 2 Using Jacobi Forms
We give a new elementary proof of Igusa's theorem on the structure of Siegel modular forms of genus 2. The key point of the proof is the estimation of the dimension of Jacobi forms appearing in the FourierJacobi development of Siegel modular forms. This proves not only Igusa's theorem, but also gives the canonical lifting from Jacobi forms to Siegel modular forms of genus 2.
متن کاملExplicit Matrices for Hecke Operators on Siegel Modular Forms
We present an explicit set of matrices giving the action of the Hecke operators T (p), Tj(p ) on Siegel modular forms. Introduction It is well-known that the space of elliptic modular forms of weight k has a basis of simultaneous eigenforms for the Hecke operators, and the Fourier coefficients of an eigenform (and hence the eigenform) are completely determined by its eigenvalues and first Fouri...
متن کاملTheory of the Siegel Modular
In this paper, we discuss the theory of the Siegel modular variety in the aspects of arithmetic and geometry. This article covers the theory of Siegel modular forms, the Hecke theory, a lifting of elliptic cusp forms, geometric properties of the Siegel modular variety, (hypothetical) motives attached to Siegel modular forms and a cohomology of the Siegel modular variety.

متن کاملRamanujan Congruences for Siegel Modular Forms
We determine conditions for the existence and non-existence of Ramanujan-type congruences for Jacobi forms. We extend these results to Siegel modular forms of degree 2 and as an application, we establish Ramanujan-type congruences for explicit examples of Siegel modular forms.
