Sep 23, 2010 at 5:18 comment added S. Carnahan Yes, that is correct - I think my understanding was rather weak when I wrote that answer. This is why weight 2 cusp forms correspond to global 1-forms.
Sep 23, 2010 at 1:27 comment added Tyler Lawson Upon reviewing this, I should mention that I think that the standard rings of modular forms already incorporates the log structure. If you express complex-analytically the condition that the modular form $f(\tau)$ of weight $2k$ is holomorphic at $\infty$ in terms of $q = e^{2\pi i \tau}$, you find that it is equivalent to being of the form $g(q) dlog(q)^k$ for $g(q)$ holomorphic at the origin.

Oct 15, 2009 at 20:37 comment added S. Carnahan This isn't really my milieu, but I don't think you get odd weight forms if your level structure admits the -1 automorphism. If you have odd weight forms, I guess you could say that geometric fibers of the divisor at infinity are representable, but it doesn't seem to be a log statement.
Oct 15, 2009 at 18:09 comment added Tyler Lawson Actually, I was hoping that it was something more like the fact that every point on the divisor has an automorphism group of size at least 2 - but I'm unsure in general about trying to talk about divisors on stacks.
Oct 15, 2009 at 16:37 comment added S. Carnahan Google: no hits for "log spin structure" or "logarithmic spin structure". For notation, maybe \pi_*(\omega^1_{E/X})? The thing inside the parentheses implicitly involves the log structures.
Oct 15, 2009 at 16:00 comment added Tyler Lawson Thanks. I'll look at the references, but there are a couple of things that immediately come to mind. I think of modular forms of even weight as sections of a power of the cotangent bundle, which has a square root w which is the line bundle of invariant 1-forms. How do you interpret modular forms of odd weight in the logarithmic sense? It seems odd to try to write w(D/2).
