AbstractIn this paper a certain type of Dirichlet series, attached to a pair of Jacobi forms and Siegel modular forms is studied. It is shown that this series can be analyzed by a new variant of the Rankin-Selberg method. We prove that for eigenforms the Dirichlet series have an Euler product and we calculate all the local L-factors. Globally this Euler product is essentially the quotient of the standard L-functions of the involved Jacobi- and Siegel modular form.

AbstractWe continue our study of Yoshida’s lifting, which associates to a pair of automorphic forms on the adelic multiplicative group of a quaternion algebra a Siegel modular form of degree 2. We consider here the case that the automorphic forms on the quaternion algebra correspond to modular forms of arbitrary even weights and square free levels; in particular we obtain a construction of Siegel modular forms of weight 3 attached to a pair of elliptic modular forms of weights 2 and 4.

We study homomorphisms form the ring of Siegel modular forms of a given degree to the ring of elliptic modular forms for a congruence subgroup. These homomorphisms essentially arise from the restriction of Siegel modular forms to modular curves. These homomorphisms give rise to linear relations among the Fourier coefficients of a Siegel modular form. We use this technique to prove that dim .

In his unpublished manuscripts (referred to by Birch [1] as Fragment V, pp. 247–249), Ramanujan [3] gave a whole list of assertions about various (transforms of) modular forms possessing naturally associated Euler products, in more or less the spirit of his extremely beautiful paper entitled “On certain arithmetical functions” (in Trans. Camb. Phil. Soc. 22 (1916)). It is simply amazing how Ramanujan could write down (with an ostensibly profound insight) a basis of eigenfunctions (of Hecke operators) whose associated Dirichlet series have Euler products, anticipating by two decades the famous work of Hecke and Petersson. That he had further realized, in the event of a modular form f not corresponding to an Euler product, the possibility of restoring the Euler product property to a suitable linear combination of modular forms of the same type as f, is evidently fantastic.

Abstract We prove that if F is a nonzero (possibly noncuspidal) vector-valued Siegel modular form of any degree, then it has infinitely many nonzero Fourier coefficients which are indexed by half-integral matrices having odd, square-free (and thus fundamental) discriminant. The proof uses an induction argument in the setting of vector-valued modular forms. Further, as an application of a variant of our result and complementing the work of A. Pollack, we show how to obtain an unconditional proof of the functional equation of the spinor L-function of a holomorphic cuspidal Siegel eigenform of degree $3$ and level $1$ .

AbstractLet Θ[j] be an analogue of the Ramanujan theta operator for Siegel modular forms. For a given prime p, we give the weights of elements of mod p kernel of Θ[j], where the mod p kernel of Θ[j] is the set of all Siegel modular forms F such that Θ[j](F) is congruent to zero modulo p. In order to construct examples of the mod p kernel of Θ[j] fromany Siegel modular form, we introduce new operators A(j)(M) and show the modularity of F|A(j)(M) when F is a Siegel modular form. Finally, we give some examples of the mod p kernel of Θ[j] and the filtrations of some of them.

We give a Rankin–Selberg integral representation for the Spin (degree eight) $L$-function on $\operatorname{PGSp}_{6}$ that applies to the cuspidal automorphic representations associated to Siegel modular forms. If $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}$ corresponds to a level-one Siegel modular form $f$ of even weight, and if $f$ has a nonvanishing maximal Fourier coefficient (defined below), then we deduce the functional equation and finiteness of poles of the completed Spin $L$-function $\unicode[STIX]{x1D6EC}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B},\text{Spin},s)$ of $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70B}$.

In [8], H. Maass introduced the ‘Spezialschar’ which is now called the Maass space. It is defined by the relation of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms as follows. Let f be a Siegel modular form on Sp(2,Z) of weight k, and let be its Fourier expansion, where . Then f belongs to the Maass space if and only if

One can characterize Siegel cusp forms among Siegel modular forms by growth properties of their Fourier coefficients. We give a new proof, which works also for more general types of modular forms. Our main tool is to study the behavior of a modular form for $Z=X+iY$ when $Y\longrightarrow 0$.
