Motives for modular forms
نویسنده
چکیده
In [DeFM], Deligne constructs l-adic parabolic cohomology groups attached to holomorphic cusp forms of weight ≥ 2 on congruence subgroups of SL2(Z). These groups occur in the l-adic cohomology of certain smooth projective varieties over Q—the Kuga-Sato varieties— which are suitably compactified families of products of elliptic curves. In view of Grothendieck’s conjectural theory of motives it is natural to hope that the parabolic cohomology groups can be directly constructed as the kernel of some projectors (in a suitable ring of algebraic correspondences) acting on the cohomology of these varieties. In this note we show that this can be done; in fact the projector we use belongs to the group algebra of a finite group of automorphisms of the Kuga-Sato variety.

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 n−forms via Gal...

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 کاملConstructing Elements in Shafarevich-tate Groups of Modular Motives
We study Shafarevich-Tate groups of motives attached to modular forms on Γ0(N) of weight bigger than 2. We deduce a criterion for the existence of nontrivial elements of these Shafarevich-Tate groups, and give 16 examples in which a strong form of the Beilinson-Bloch conjecture implies the existence of such elements. We also use modular symbols and observations about Tamagawa numbers to compute...

متن کاملMotives, modularity, and mirror symmetry
We consider certain families of Calabi-Yau orbifolds and their mirror partners constructed from Fermat hypersurfaces in weighted projective spaces. We use Fermat motives to interpret the topological mirror symmetry phenomenon. These Calabi-Yau orbifolds are defined over Q, and we can discuss the modularity of the associated Galois representations. We address the modularity question at the motiv...
متن کاملAdjoint Motives of Modular Forms and the Tamagawa Number Conjecture
This paper concerns the Tamagawa number conjecture of Bloch and Kato [B-K] for adjoint motives of modular forms of weight k ≥ 2. The conjecture relates the value at 0 of the associated L-function to arithmetic invariants of the motive. We prove that it holds up to powers of certain “bad primes.” The strategy for achieving this is essentially due to Wiles [Wi], as completed with Taylor in [T-W]....
