Abstract We use the Poincaré series method to compute gravity partition functions associated to SU(N)1 WZW models with arbitrarily large numbers of modular invariants. The result is an average over these invariants, with the weights being given by inverting a matrix whose size is of order the number of invariants. For the chosen models, this matrix takes a special form that allows us to invert it for arbitrary size and thereby explicitly calculate the weights of this average. For the identity seed we find that the weights are positive for all N, consistent with each model being dual to an ensemble average over CFT’s.

Abstract We investigate the Poincaré series approach to computing 3d gravity partition functions dual to Rational CFT. For a single genus-1 boundary, we show that for certain infinite sets of levels, the SU(2)k WZW models provide unitary examples for which the Poincaré series is a positive linear combination of two modular-invariant partition functions. This supports the interpretation that the bulk gravity theory (a topological Chern-Simons theory in this case) is dual to an average of distinct CFT’s sharing the same Kac-Moody algebra. We compute the weights of this average for all seed primaries and all relevant values of k. We then study other WZW models, notably SU(N)1 and SU(3)k, and find that each class presents rather different features. Finally we consider multiple genus-1 boundaries, where we find a class of seed functions for the Poincaré sum that reproduces both disconnected and connected contributions — the latter corresponding to analogues of 3-manifold “wormholes” — such that the expected average is correctly reproduced.

We extend results of Bringmann and Ono that relate certain generalized traces of Maass–Poincaré series to Fourier coefficients of modular forms of half-integral weight. By specializing to cases in which these traces are usual traces of algebraic numbers, we generalize results of Zagier describing arithmetic traces associated to modular forms. We define correspondences [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. We show that if f is a modular form of non-positive weight 2 - 2 λ and odd level N, holomorphic away from the cusp at infinity, then the traces of values at Heegner points of a certain iterated non-holomorphic derivative of f are equal to Fourier coefficients of the half-integral weight modular forms [Formula: see text].
