Various multiple Dedekind sums were introduced by B.C.Berndt, L.Carlitz, S.Egami, D.Zagier and A.Bayad.In this paper, noticing the Jacobi form in Bayad [4], the cotangent function in Zagier [23], Egami’s result on cotangent functions [14] and their reciprocity laws, we study a special case of the Jacobi forms in Bayad [4] and deduce a generalization of Egami’s result on cotangent functions and a generalization of Zagier’s result. Further, we consider their reciprocity laws.
We identify the weight four newform of a modular Calabi-Yau manifold studied by Hulek and Verrill. The main obstacle is that this Calabi-Yau manifold is not rigid and has bad reduction at prime 13. Replacing the original fiber product of elliptic fibrations with a fiberwise Kummer construction we reduce the problem to studying the modularity of a rigid Calabi-Yau manifold with good reduction at primes p ≥ 5.
The aim of this article is to present five new examples of modular rigid Calabi-Yau threefolds by giving explicit correspondences to newforms of weight 4 and levels 10, 17, 21 and 73.
This paper is based on lectures delivered at the Workshop on quasimodular forms held in June, 2010 in Besse, France, and it provides a survey of some recent work on quasimodular forms.
In the present text we give a geometric interpretation of quasi-modular forms using moduli of elliptic curves with marked elements in their de Rham cohomologies. In this way differential equations of modular and quasi-modular forms are interpreted as vector fields on such moduli spaces and they can be calculated from the Gauss-Manin connection of the corresponding universal family of elliptic curves. For the full modular group such a differential equation is calculated and it turns out to be the...
