Nonlinear differential equations satisfied by certain classical modular forms

چکیده

A unified treatment is given of low-weight modular forms on Γ0(N), N = 2, 3, 4, that have Eisenstein series representations. For each N, certain weight-1 forms are shown to satisfy a coupled system of nonlinear differential equations, from which a single nonlinear third-order equation, called a generalized Chazy equation, can be derived. As byproducts of this result, a table of divisor function and theta identities is generated by means of q-expansions, and a transformation law (under Γ0(4)) for the second complete elliptic integral is derived. Additionally, it is shown that any Gauss hypergeometric equation leads naturally to a generalized Chazy equation.

Differential Equations Satisfied by Modular Forms and K3 Surfaces

We study differential equations satisfied by modular forms of two variables associated to Γ1×Γ2, where Γi (i = 1, 2) are genus zero subgroups of SL2(R) commensurable with SL2(Z), e.g., Γ0(N) or Γ0(N)∗ for some N . In some examples, these differential equations are realized as the Picard–Fuchs differential equations of families of K3 surfaces with large Picard numbers, e.g., 19, 18, 17, 16. Our ...

Differential Equations Satisfied by Bi-modular Forms and K3 Surfaces

We study differential equations satisfied by bi-modular forms associated to genus zero subgroups of SL2(R) of the form Γ0(N) or Γ0(N)∗. In some examples, these differential equations are realized as the Picard–Fuchs differential equations of families of K3 surfaces with large Picard numbers, e.g., 19, 18, 17, 16. Our method rediscovers some of the Lian–Yau examples of “modular relations” involv...

Local and global Maass relations

We characterize the irreducible, admissible, spherical representations of GSp4(F ) (where F is a p-adic field) that occur in certain CAP representations in terms of relations satisfied by their spherical vector in a special Bessel model. These local relations are analogous to the Maass relations satisfied by the Fourier coefficients of Siegel modular forms of degree 2 in the image of the Saito-...
