We describe a new link between the theory of topological modular forms and representations of vertex operator algebras obtained by certain lattices. The construction is motivated by the arithmetic Whitehead tower of the orthogonal groups. The tower discloses the role of codes in representation theory.

This article is a brief survey of the theory of topological modular forms (TMF) and the theory of topological automorphic forms (TAF). It will be a chapter in forthcoming "Handbook of Homotopy Theory" edited by Haynes Miller.
We discuss proofs of local cohomology theorems for topological modular forms, based on Mahowald-Rezk duality and on Gorenstein duality, and then make the associated local cohomology spectral sequences explicit, including their differential patterns and hidden extensions.

Using the methods of Ando-Hopkins-Rezk, we describe the characteristic series arising from E-infinity genera valued in topological modular forms with level structure. We give examples of such series for tmf_0(N) and show that the Ochanine genus comes from an E-infinity ring map. We also show that, away from 6, certain tmf orientations of String cobordism descend to orientations of Spin cobordism.
Topological modular forms with level structure were introduced in full generality by Hill and Lawson. We show that these decompose additively in many cases into a few simple pieces and give an application to equivariant $TMF$. Furthermore, we show which $Tmf_1(n)$ are self-Anderson dual up to a shift, both with and without their natural $C_2$-action.
We compute the homotopy groups of the $C_2$ fixed points of equivariant topological modular forms at the prime $2$ using the descent spectral sequence. We then show that as a $\mathrm{TMF}$-module, it is isomorphic to the tensor product of $\mathrm{TMF}$ with an explicit finite cell complex.
We describe and compute the homotopy of spectra of topological modular forms of level 3. We give some computations related to the "building complex" associated to level 3 structures at the prime 2. Finally, we note the existence of a number of connective models of the spectrum TMF(Gamma_0(3)).

Connective Models for Topological Modular Forms of Level $n$

It has been observed that certain localizations of the spectrum of topological modular forms are self-dual (Mahowald-Rezk, Gross-Hopkins). We provide an integral explanation of these results that is internal to the geometry of the (compactified) moduli stack of elliptic curves $ \M $, yet is only true in the derived setting. When $ 2 $ is inverted, a choice of level $ 2 $ structure for an elliptic curve provides a geometrically well-behaved cover of $ \M $, which allows one to consider $ Tmf $ as the homotopy fixed points of $ Tmf(2) $, topological modular forms with level $ 2 $ structure, und…

Modular forms appear in many facets of mathematics, and have played important roles in geometry, mathematical physics, number theory, representation theory, topology, and other areas. Around 1994, motivated by technical issues in homotopy theory, Mark Mahowald, Haynes Miller and I constructed a topological refinement of modular forms, which we call {\em topological modular forms}. At the Zurich ICM I sketched a program designed to relate topological modular forms to invariants of manifolds, homotopy groups of spheres, and ordinary modular forms. This program has recently been completed and new…

Previous work constructed a generalized truncated Brown-Peterson spectrum of chromatic height 2 at the prime 2 as an E_infinity-ring spectrum, based on the study of elliptic curves with level-3 structure. We show that the natural map forgetting this level structure induces an E_infinity-ring map from the spectrum of topological modular forms to this truncated Brown-Peterson spectrum, and that this orientation fits into a diagram of E_infinity-ring spectra lifting a classical diagram of modules over the mod-2 Steenrod algebra. In an appendix we document how to organize Morava's forms of K-theor…
The element $P_2^1$ of the mod 2 Steenrod algebra has the property $(P_2^1)^2=0$. This property allows one to view $P_2^1$ as a differential on $H_*(X, \mathbb{F}_2)$ for any spectrum $X$. Homology with respect to this differential, $\mathcal{M}(X, P_2^1)$, is called the $P_2^1$ Margolis homology of $X$. In this paper we give a complete calculation of the $P_2^1$ Margolis homology of the 2-local spectrum of topological modular forms $tmf$ and identify its $\mathbb{F}_2$ basis via an iterated algorithm. We apply the same techniques to calculate $P_2^1$ Margolis homology for any smash power of $…
In this paper, we study the elliptic spectral sequence computing $tmf_*(\mathbb{R} P^2)$ and $tmf_* (\mathbb{R} P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C} P^2)$. Specifically, we compute all differentials and resolve exotic extensions by 2, $η$, and $ν$. For $tmf_* (\mathbb{R} P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C} P^2)$, we also compute the effect of the $v_1$-self maps of $\mathbb{R} P^2 \wedge \mathbb{C} P^2$ on $tmf$-homology.
This is the companion article to the Bourbaki talk of the same name given in March 2009. The main theme of the talk and the article is to explain the interplay between homotopy theory and algebraic geometry through the Hopkins-Miller-Lurie theorem on topological modular forms, from which we learn that the Deligne-Mumford moduli stack for elliptic curves is canonically realized as an object in derived algebraic geometry.

Spacetime theories obtained from perturbative string theory constructions are automatically free of perturbative anomalies, but it is not settled whether they are always free of global anomalies. Here we discuss a possible $\mathbb{Z}_{24}$-valued pure gravitational anomaly of heterotic compactifications down to two spacetime dimensions, and point out that it can be shown to vanish using the theory of topological modular forms, assuming the validity of the Stolz-Teichner conjecture.
The present article studies decompositions of vector bundles on the moduli stack of elliptic curves that are pushforwards of vector bundles on moduli of elliptic curves with level structure. These imply decomposition results for rings of modular forms and also for topological modular forms. We give explicit formulas for these decompositions and also apply them to equivariant topological modular forms. Moreover, we study the dualizing sheaf on $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_1(n)$ and characterize the numbers $n$ such that $Tmf_1(n)$ is Anderson self-dual.
We prove that the Brauer group of TMF is isomorphic to the Brauer group of the derived moduli stack of elliptic curves. Then, we compute the local Brauer group, i.e., the subgroup of the Brauer group of elements trivialized by some étale cover of the moduli stack, up to a finite 2-torsion group.

In this paper we provide descriptions of the Whitehead groups with coefficients in a ring of the Hilbert modular group and its reduced version, as well as for the topological K-theory of $C^*$-algebras, after tensoring with $\mathbb{Q}$, by computing the source of the assembly maps in the Farrell-Jones and the Baum-Connes conjecture respectively. We also construct a model for the classifying space of the Hilbert modular group for the family of virtually cyclic subgroups.

The cohomology theory known as Tmf, for "topological modular forms," is a universal object mapping out to elliptic cohomology theories, and its coefficient ring is closely connected to the classical ring of modular forms. We extend this to a functorial family of objects corresponding to elliptic curves with level structure and modular forms on them. Along the way, we produce a natural way to restrict to the cusps, providing multiplicative maps from Tmf with level structure to forms of K-theory. In particular, this allows us to construct a connective spectrum tmf_0(3) consistent with properties…
We construct deformation invariants of $2|1$-dimensional Euclidean field theories valued in a cohomology theory approximating topological modular forms. This implies several results anticipated by Stolz and Teichner and gives the first torsion invariants of field theories valued in $π_*{\rm TMF}$. The framework leads to a version of the elliptic Euler class described in terms of field-theoretic data, as well as a partial construction of the supersymmetric sigma model with target a string manifold.
Hecke operators on topological modular forms

We build a connection between topology of smooth 4-manifolds and the theory of topological modular forms by considering topologically twisted compactification of 6d (1,0) theories on 4-manifolds with flavor symmetry backgrounds. The effective 2d theory has (0,1) supersymmetry and, possibly, a residual flavor symmetry. The equivariant topological Witten genus of this 2d theory then produces a new invariant of the 4-manifold equipped with a principle bundle, valued in the ring of equivariant weakly holomorphic (topological) modular forms. We describe basic properties of this map and present a fe…
The theory of topological modular forms (TMF) predicts that elliptic genera of physical theories satisfy a certain divisibility property, determined by the theory's gravitational anomaly. In this note we verify this prediction in Duncan's Supermoonshine module, as well as in tensor products and orbifolds thereof. Along the way we develop machinery for computing the elliptic genera of general alternating orbifolds and discuss the relation of this construction to the elusive "periodicity class" of TMF.
This paper starts with an exposition of descent-theoretic techniques in the study of Picard groups of $\mathbf{E}_{\infty}$-ring spectra, which naturally lead to the study of Picard spectra. We then develop tools for the efficient and explicit determination of differentials in the associated descent spectral sequences for the Picard spectra thus obtained. As a major application, we calculate the Picard groups of the periodic spectrum of topological modular forms $TMF$ and the non-periodic and non-connective $Tmf$. We find that $\mathrm{Pic} (TMF)$ is cyclic of order 576, generated by the suspe…

We describe the role conformal nets, a mathematical model for conformal field theory, could play in a geometric definition of the generalized cohomology theory TMF of topological modular forms. Inspired by work of Segal and Stolz-Teichner, we speculate that bundles of boundary conditions for the net of free fermions will be the basic underlying objects representing TMF-cohomology classes. String structures, which are the fundamental orientations for TMF-cohomology, can be encoded by defects between free fermions, and we construct the bundle of fermionic boundary conditions for the TMF-Euler cl…
