Reference for: CM Hilbert Modular forms arise from Hecke characters

For classical modular forms, the correspondence between the form having CM by an imaginary quadratic field $K$ and it being induced from a Hecke character on $K$ is well-known. (Ribet's paper is a ...

Are the L-functions of a normalized newform and the corresponding cuspidal representation equal?

Let $f \in S_k(\Gamma_0(N))$ be a normalized newform with Fourier expansion $$f(z) = \sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} a_n e^{2\pi i z n}$$ and $a_1 = 1$. Then $f$ is an eigenfunction of all Hecke ...

Is special value of Epstein zeta function in 3 variables a period?

Kontsevich-Zagier's article "Periods" contains the following question Is $\displaystyle \sum_{x,y,z \in \mathbb{Z}}' \frac{1}{(x^2+y^2+z^2)^2}$ an extended period? ($\sum'$ means we do not sum ...

Jacobi's theorem on sums of two squares (reference request)

One of Jacobi's theorems states that the number of representations of a positive integer $n$ as a sum of two squares of integers equals $$4(d_1(n)-d_3(n)),$$ where the function $d_i$ counts the number ...

What's known about the mod 2 reduction of the level l Jacobi modular equation?

Motivation: Let $\ell$ be an odd prime. Let $A$ in ${\mathbb Z}/2[[x]]$ be $x+x^9+x^{25}+x^{49}+...$, and $B=A(x^\ell)$. One can use the level $\ell$ Jacobi modular equation to get a polynomial ...

Results in an article by Siegel

Studying the Eisenstein cocycle by Sczech, I noticed that to understand its connection with the values at negative integers with zeta functions it is necessary to understand the resuts by Siegel in ...

Reference on generators of subgroups of symplectic groups

We should start with the definition of the symplectic group for an arbitrary ring $R$. The symplectic group $Sp(g,R)$ is the subgroup of $SL(2g,R)$ such that all elements satisfy $M=J_g^t M J_g$ with $...
