Kac-Peterson modular forms and shifted theta functions

Let $\Lambda$ be the root lattice corresponding to an ADE root system $R$ of rank $n$. With the ADE assumption, the weight lattice is simply the dual lattice $\Lambda^{\vee}$. Given any weight vector $...

Eigenvalues of spherical function on $\mathrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$

Lie algebraically, the eigenvalue of the spherical function \begin{align*} \phi_{\lambda}(g)=\int_{K} e^{(i \lambda+\rho)(A(k g))} \mathrm{d} k \quad (g \in G,\,\lambda\in\mathfrak{a}^*) \end{align*} ...

Character of the Basic Representation for Affine E_8 in Terms of Jacobi Theta Functions

When $\mathfrak g$ is a complex, simple, simply laced Lie algebra of rank r then the (specialized) character of the basic representation for the corresponding affine Lie algebra $\hat {\mathfrak g}$ ...
