Abstract.The theorems of Gross–Zagier and Zhang relate the Néron–Tate heights of complex multiplication points on the modular curve X0(N) (and on Shimura curve analogues) with the central derivatives of automorphic L-function. We extend these results to include certain CM points on modular curves of the form X (Ⲅ0(M ) ∩ Ⲅ1(S)) (and on Shimura curve analogues). These results are motivated by applications to Hida theory that can be found in the companion article “Central derivatives of L -functions in Hida families”,Math. Ann. 399(2007), 803–818.

Abstract The j-function acts as a parametrization of the classical modular curve. Its values at complex multiplication (CM) points are called singular moduli and are algebraic integers. A Shimura curve is a generalization of the modular curve and, if the Shimura curve has genus 0, a rational parameterizing function exists and when evaluated at a CM point is again algebraic over Q. This paper shows that the coordinate maps given by N. Elkies for the Shimura curves associated to the quaternion algebras with discriminants 6 and 10 are Borcherds lifts of vector-valued modular forms. This property is then used to explicitly compute the rational norms of singular moduli on these curves. This method not only verifies conjectural values for the rational CM points, but also provides a way of algebraically calculating the norms of CM points with arbitrarily large negative discriminant.

This chapter states the main result of this book regarding Shimura curves and abelian varieties as well as the main idea of the proof of a complete Gross–Zagier formula on quaternionic Shimura curves over totally real fields. It begins with a discussion of the original formula proved by Benedict Gross and Don Zagier, which relates the Néeron–Tate heights of Heegner points on X⁰(N) to the central derivatives of some Rankin–Selberg L-functions under the Heegner condition. In particular, it considers the Gross–Zagier formula on modular curves and abelian varieties parametrized by Shimura curves. It then decribes CM points and the Waldspurger formula before concluding with an outline of our proof, along with the notation and terminology.

AbstractIn this paper we compute and continue meromorphically to the whole complex plane the zeta function for twisted modular curves. The twist of the modular curve is done by a modprepresentation of the absolute Galois group.

Abstract We consider the generalized Jacobian {\widetilde{J}} of the modular curve {X_{0}(N)} of level N with respect to a reduced divisor consisting of all cusps. Supposing N is square free, we explicitly determine the structure of the {\mathbb{Q}} -rational torsion points on {\widetilde{J}} up to 6-primary torsion. The result depicts a fuller picture than [18] where the case of prime power level was studied. We also obtain an analogous result for Drinfeld modular curves. Our proof relies on similar results for classical Jacobians due to Ohta, Papikian and the first author. We also discuss the Hecke action on {\widetilde{J}} and its Eisenstein property.

AbstractIn this paper, we provide refined sufficient conditions for the quadratic Chabauty method on a curve X to produce an effective finite set of points containing the rational points $$X({\mathbb {Q}})$$ X ( Q ) , with the condition on the rank of the Jacobian of X replaced by condition on the rank of a quotient of the Jacobian plus an associated space of Chow–Heegner points. We then apply this condition to prove the effective finiteness of $$X({\mathbb {Q}})$$ X ( Q ) for any modular curve $$X=X_0^+(N)$$ X = X 0 + ( N ) or $$X_\mathrm{{ns}}^+(N)$$ X ns + ( N ) of genus at least 2 with N prime. The proof relies on the existence of a quotient of their Jacobians whose Mordell–Weil rank is equal to its dimension (and at least 2), which is proven via analytic estimates for orders of vanishing of L-functions of modular forms, thanks to a Kolyvagin–Logachev type result.

Let 𝔈(𝔭) denote the Eisenstein ideal in the Hecke algebra 𝕋(𝔭) of the Drinfeld modular curve X0(𝔭) parameterizing Drinfeld modules of rank two over 𝔽q[T] of general characteristic with Hecke level 𝔭-structure, where 𝔭 ◃ 𝔽q[T] is a non-zero prime ideal. We prove that the characteristic p of the field 𝔽q does not divide the order of the quotient 𝕋(𝔭)/𝔈(𝔭) and the Eisenstein ideal 𝔈(𝔭) is locally principal.

AbstractModular curves likeX0(N) andX1(N) appear very frequently in arithmetic geometry. While their complex points are obtained as a quotient of the upper half plane by some subgroups of SL2(ℤ), they allow for a more arithmetic description as a solution to a moduli problem. We wish to give such a moduli description for two other modular curves, denoted here byXnsp(p) andXnsp+(p) associated to non-split Cartan subgroups and their normaliser in GL2(𝔽p). These modular curves appear for instance in Serre's problem of classifying all possible Galois structures ofp-torsion points on elliptic curves over number fields. We give then a moduli-theoretic interpretation and a new proof of a result of Chen (Proc. London Math. Soc.(3)77(1) (1998), 1–38;J. Algebra231(1) (2000), 414–448).

Abstract We test the refined distance conjecture in the vector multiplet moduli space of 4D $$ \mathcal{N} $$ N = 2 compactifications of the type IIA string that admit a dual heterotic description. In the weakly coupled regime of the heterotic string, the moduli space geometry is governed by the perturbative heterotic dualities, which allows for exact computations. This is reflected in the type IIA frame through the existence of a K3 fibration. We identify the degree d = 2N of the K3 fiber as a parameter that could potentially lead to large distances, which is substantiated by studying several explicit models. The moduli space geometry degenerates into the modular curve for the congruence subgroup Γ0(N)+. In order to probe the large N regime, we initiate the study of Calabi-Yau threefolds fibered by general degree d > 8 K3 surfaces by suggesting a construction as complete intersections in Grassmann bundles.

AbstractKudla has proposed a general program to relate arithmetic intersection multiplicities of special cycles on Shimura varieties to Fourier coefficients of Eisenstein series. The lowest dimensional case, in which one intersects two codimension one cycles on the integral model of a Shimura curve, has been completed by Kudla, Rapoport and Yang. In the present paper we prove results in a higher dimensional setting. On the integral model of a Shimura surface we consider the intersection of a Shimura curve with a codimension two cycle of complex multiplication points, and relate the intersection to certain cycle classes constructed by Kudla, Rapoport and Yang. As a corollary we deduce that our intersection multiplicities appear as Fourier coefficients of a Hilbert modular form of half-integral weight.
