The first half of this dissertation reviews the basic notion of vector-valued modular forms and its connection to differential equations. The main purpose of the dissertation is to classify spaces of vector-valued modular forms associated to irreducible, T-unitarizable representations of the full modular group, of dimension less than six. Given such a representation, it is shown that the associated graded complex linear space of vector-valued modular forms is a free module over the ring of integral weight modular forms for the full modular group, whose rank is equal to the dimension of the given representation. An explicit basis is computed for the module structure in each case, and this basis is used to compute the Hilbert-Poincare series associated to each graded space.
We extend the relation between quasi-modular forms and modular forms to a wider class of functions. We then relate both forms to vector-valued modular forms with symmetric power representations, and prove a general structure theorem for these vector-valued forms.
We study Hecke operators on vector-valued modular forms for the Weil representation $ρ_L$ of a lattice $L$. We first construct Hecke operators $\mathcal{T}_r$ that map vector-valued modular forms of type $ρ_L$ into vector-valued modular forms of type $ρ_{L(r)}$, where $L(r)$ is the lattice $L$ with rescaled bilinear form $(\cdot, \cdot)_r = r (\cdot, \cdot)$, by lifting standard Hecke operators for scalar-valued modular forms using Siegel theta functions. The components of the vector-valued Hecke operators $\mathcal{T}_r$ have appeared in [Comm. Math. Phys. 350 (2017), 1069-1121] as generating…
In this paper, we prove vector-valued higher depth quantum modular properties arising from characters of certain vertex algebras. We then find two-dimensional Mordell integral representations for their errors of modularity.
We construct isomorphisms between spaces of vector-valued modular forms for the dual Weil representation and certain spaces of scalar-valued modular forms in the case that the underlying finite quadratic module $A$ has order $p$ or $2p$, where $p$ is an odd prime. The isomorphisms are given by twisted sums of the components of vector-valued modular forms. Our results generalize work of Bruinier and Bundschuh to the case that the components $F_γ$ of the vector-valued modular form are antisymmetric in the sense that $F_γ = -F_{-γ}$ for all $γ\in A$. As an application, we compute restrictions of …
The theory of elliptic modular forms has gained significant momentum from the discovery of relaxed yet well-behaved notions of modularity, such as mock modular forms, higher order modular forms, and iterated Eichler-Shimura integrals. Applications beyond number theory range from combinatorics, geometry, and representation theory to string theory and conformal field theory. We unify these relaxed notions in the framework of vector-valued modular forms by introducing a new class of $\mathrm{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$-representations: virtually real-arithmetic types. The key point of the paper is that …
We investigate the various types of weight raising and weight lowering operators on quasi-modular forms, or equivalently on Shimura's vector-valued modular forms involving symmetric power representations. We also present all the eigenfunctions of the two possible Laplacian operators.

Let $E_n$ be the Siegel Eisenstein series of degree $n$ and weight $k$ with a complex parameter $s$. In this paper, using a differential operator $D$ by Ibukiyama which sends a scalar valued Siegel modular form to the tensor product of two vector valued Siegel modular forms, under a certain condition, we give a formula of $DE_{p+q}$ on $H_p\times H_q$, where $H_n$ is the Siegel upper half space of degree $n$. Furthermore, we give some applications of this formula, i.e., analytic properies of standard $L$-functions and the Klingen Eisenstein series and algebraicity results for Siegel modular fo…
We introduce and investigate an infinite family of functions which are shown to have generalised quantum modular properties. We realise their "companions" in the lower half plane both as double Eichler integrals and as non-holomorphic theta functions with coefficients given by double error functions. Further, we view these Eichler integrals in a modular setting as parts of certain weight two indefinite theta series.
In this work we use the Rankin-Selberg method to obtain results on the analytic properties of the standard $L$-function attached to vector valued Siegel modular forms. In particular we provide a detailed description of its possible poles and obtain a non-vanishing result of the twisted $L$-function beyond the usual range of absolute convergence. We remark that these results were known in this generality only in the case of scalar weight Siegel modular forms. As an interesting by-product of our work we establish the cuspidality of some theta series.
We prove that the field generated by the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic Poincaré series of a given level $Γ_0(N)$ and weight $k\ge 2$ coincides with the field generated by the single-valued periods of a certain motive attached to $Γ_0(N)$. This clarifies the arithmetic nature of such Fourier coefficients and generalises previous formulas of Brown and Acres--Broadhurst giving explicit series expansions for the single-valued periods of some modular forms. Our proof is based on Bringmann--Ono's construction of harmonic lifts of Poincaré series.
Let $ρ$ denote an irreducible two-dimensional representation of $Γ_{0}(2)$. The collection of vector-valued modular forms for $ρ$, which we denote by $M(ρ)$, form a graded and free module of rank two over the ring of modular forms on $Γ_{0}(2)$, which we denote by $M(Γ_{0}(2))$. For a certain class of $ρ$, we prove that if Z is any vector-valued modular form for $ρ$ whose component functions have algebraic Fourier coefficients then the sequence of the denominators of the Fourier coefficients of both component functions of Z is unbounded. Our methods involve computing an explicit basis for $M(ρ…
We correct a mistake in \cite{St} leading to erroneous formulas in Theorems 5.2 and 5.4. As an immediate corollary of a formula in \cite{BCJ} we give a formula, which relates the Hecke operators $T(p^2)\circ T(p^{2l-2})$, $T(p^{2l})$ and $T(p^{2l-4})$ and comment on it.
Let $H$ denote a finite index subgroup of the modular group $Γ$ and let $ρ$ denote a finite-dimensional complex representation of $H.$ Let $M(ρ)$ denote the collection of holomorphic vector-valued modular forms for $ρ$ and let $M(H)$ denote the collection of modular forms on $H$. Then $M(ρ)$ is a $\textbf{Z}$-graded $M(H)$-module. It has been proven that $M(ρ)$ may not be projective as a $M(H)$-module. We prove that $M(ρ)$ is Cohen-Macaulay as a $M(H)$-module. We also explain how to apply this result to prove that if $M(H)$ is a polynomial ring then $M(ρ)$ is a free $M(H)$-module of rank $\tex…
We proof a Garrett-Böcherer decomposition of a vector valued Siegel Eisenstein series $E_{l,0}^2$ of genus 2 transforming with the Weil representation of $\text{Sp}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ on the group ring $\mathbb{C}[(L'/L)^2]$. We show that the standard zeta function associated to a vector valued common eigenform $f$ for the Weil representation can be meromorphically continued to the whole $s$-plane and that it satisfies a functional equation. The proof is based on an integral representation of this zeta function in terms of $f$ and $E_{l,0}^2$.
