Abstract

top
There is a Shimura lifting which sends cusp forms of a half-integral weight to holomorphic modular forms of an even integral weight. Niwa and Cipra studied this lifting using the theta series attached to an indefinite quadratic form; later, Borcherds and Bruinier extended this lifting to weakly holomorphic modular forms and harmonic weak Maass forms of weight 1/2, respectively. We apply Niwa's theta kernel to weak Maass forms by using a regularized integral. We show that the lifted function satisfies modular transformation properties and is an eigenfunction of the Laplace operator. In particular, this lifting preserves the property of being harmonic. Furthermore, we determine the location of singularities of the lifted function and describe its singularity type.
