Boundary of Siegel modular variety

The moduli space of curves has a compactification whose boundary can be understood as the product of moduli spaces of curves of lower genus. Therefore (perhaps naively) one might hope that there ...

Non holomorphic Siegel-Poincare series growth

Let $H_g$ be the Siegel upper-half plance of genus $g$, and $\Gamma=Sp_{2g}(\mathbb{Z})$ the full modular group of genus $g$. As usual, we can define non-holomorphic Eisenstein and Poincare series as $...

Wedge product of entries of a matrix & Volume form of the Siegel metric

Let $A=(a_{ij})$ be an $n\times n$ square matrix, and $\omega(A)=\bigwedge\limits_{i,j=1}^na_{ij}$ be the wedge product of its entries. Then, if $B=UA=(b_{ij})$ for some square matrix $U$, I think one ...
