Convolution identities for complex-indexed divisor functions and modular graph functions

We find exact identities for sums of the form \begin{equation*}\label{eq:convsumabs} \sum_{\stackrel{n_1+n_2 = n}{n_1 \in \mathbb{Z} \setminus \{ 0, n \} }} Q(n_1,n_2) σ_{-r_1}(n_1) σ_{-r_2}(n_2), \end{equation*} where $n\in\mathbb{N}$, $r_1,r_2\in\mathbb{C}$, $Q$ is a combination of hypergeometric functions, and $σ_{a}(x)$ denotes the divisor function. Specifically, we find that they can be expressed in terms of Fourier coefficients of Hecke cusp forms weighted by their $L$-values. This result expands upon previous work with Radchenko in which such identities were found for divisor functions with even integer index \cite{FKLR} and encompasses results of Jacobi \cite{motohashi1994binary} and Diamantis and O'Sullivan in \cite{diamantis2010kernels, o2023identities} for divisor functions with odd integer index. The proof of our result expresses these sums in terms of Estermann zeta functions and uses trace formulae. In addition, we use a regularization of divergent convolution sums to provide a mathematical explanation for $L$-values (non-critical in the sense of Deligne) appearing in modular graph functions \cite{DKS2021_2}.

Spectral and dynamical invariants of Hecke triangle groups via transfer operators

In this paper, we consider Hecke triangle groups $Γ_w$ for $w>2$ and associated infinite-volume orbifolds $Γ_w \backslash \mathbb{H}$. We show that the Selberg zeta function $Z_{Γ_w}(s)$ can be approximated for $s \in \mathbb{C} \setminus \frac{1}{2}(1-2 \mathbb{N}_0)$ by determinants of finite-dimensional matrices with an explicitly computed error term that decays exponentially as the matrix size increases. As an application, we evaluate the Hausdorff dimensions of Hecke triangle groups with high precision, explicitly compute the values of the corresponding Ruelle zeta functions at zero, and obtain estimates on orders of trivial zeroes of the Selberg zeta function.

Convolution identities for divisor sums and modular forms

We prove exact identities for convolution sums of divisor functions of the form $\sum_{n_1 \in \mathbb{Z} \smallsetminus \{0,n\}}φ(n_1,n-n_1)σ_{2m_1}(n_1)σ_{2m_2}(n-n_1)$ where $φ(n_1,n_2)$ is a Laurent polynomial with logarithms for which the sum is absolutely convergent. Such identities are motivated by computations in string theory and prove and generalize a conjecture of Chester, Green, Pufu, Wang, and Wen from \cite{CGPWW}. Originally, it was suspected that such sums, suitably extended to $n_1\in\{0,n\}$ should vanish, but in this paper we find that in general they give Fourier coefficients of holomorphic cusp forms.

Casimir energy of hyperbolic orbifolds with conical singularities

In this article, we obtain the explicit expression of the Casimir energy for 2-dimensional Clifford-Klein space forms in terms of the geometrical data of the underlying spacetime with the help of zeta-regularization techniques. The spacetime is geometrically expressed as a compact hyperbolic orbifold surface that may have finitely many conical singularities. In computing the contribution to the energy from a conical singularity, we derive an expression of an elliptic orbital integral as an infinite sum of special functions. We prove that this sum converges exponentially fast. Additionally, we show that under a natural assumption (known to hold asymptotically) on the growth of the lengths of primitive closed geodesics of the $(2, 3, 7)$-triangle group orbifold its Casimir energy is positive (repulsive).

Shifted convolution sums motivated by string theory

In \cite{CGPWW2021}, it was conjectured that a particular shifted sum of even divisor sums vanishes, and in \cite{SDK}, a formal argument was given for this vanishing. Shifted convolution sums of this form appear when computing the Fourier expansion of coefficients for the low energy scattering amplitudes in type IIB string theory \cite{GMV2015} and have applications to subconvexity bounds of $L$-functions. In this article, we generalize the argument from~\cite{SDK} and rigorously evaluate shifted convolution of the divisor functions of the form $\displaystyle \sum_{\stackrel{n_1+n_2=n}{n_1, n_2 \in \mathbb{Z} \setminus \{0\}}} σ_{k}(n_1) σ_{\ell}(n_2) |n_1|^R $ and $\displaystyle \sum_{\stackrel{n_1+n_2=n}{n_1, n_2 \in \mathbb{Z} \setminus \{0\} }} σ_{k}(n_1) σ_{\ell}(n_2) |n_1|^Q\log|n_1| $ where $σ_ν(n) = \sum_{d \divides n} d^ν$. In doing so, we derive exact identities for these sums and conjecture that particular sums similar to but different from the one found in \cite{CGPWW2021} will also vanish.

Fourier expansions of vector-valued automorphic functions with non-unitary twists

We provide Fourier expansions of vector-valued eigenfunctions of the hyperbolic Laplacian that are twist-periodic in a horocycle direction. The twist may be given by any endomorphism of a finite-dimensional vector space; no assumptions on invertibility or unitarity are made. Examples of such eigenfunctions include vector-valued twisted automorphic forms of Fuchsian groups. We further provide a detailed description of the Fourier coefficients and explicitly identify each of their constituents, which intimately depend on the eigenvalues of the twisting endomorphism and the size of its Jordan blocks. In addition, we determine the growth properties of the Fourier coefficients.

Whittaker Fourier type solutions to differential equations arising from string theory

In this article, we find the full Fourier expansion for the generalized non-holomorphic Eisenstein series for certain values of parameters. We give a connection of the boundary condition on such Fourier series with convolution formulas on the divisor functions. Additionally, we discuss a possible relation with the differential Galois theory.

Scattering Theory with Unitary Twists

We study the spectral properties of the Laplace operator associated to a hyperbolic surface in the presence of a unitary representation of the fundamental group. Following the approach by Guillopé and Zworski, we establish a factorization formula for the twisted scattering determinant and describe the behavior of the scattering matrix in a neighborhood of $1/2$.

Counting Resonances on Hyperbolic Surfaces with Unitary Twists

We present the Laplace operator associated to a hyperbolic surface $Γ\setminus\mathbb{H}$ and a unitary representation of the fundamental group $Γ$, extending the previous definition for hyperbolic surfaces of finite area to those of infinite area. We show that the resolvent of this operator admits a meromorphic continuation to all of $\mathbb{C}$ by constructing a parametrix for the Laplacian, following the approach by Guillopé and Zworski. We use the construction to provide an optimal upper bound for the counting function of the poles of the continued resolvent.

Meromorphic continuation of Selberg zeta functions with twists having non-expanding cusp monodromy

We initiate the study of Selberg zeta functions $Z_{Γ,χ}$ for geometrically finite Fuchsian groups $Γ$ and finite-dimensional representations $χ$ with non-expanding cusp monodromy. We show that for all choices of $(Γ,χ)$, the Selberg zeta function $Z_{Γ,χ}$ converges on some half-plane in $\mathbb{C}$. In addition, under the assumption that $Γ$ admits a strict transfer operator approach, we show that $Z_{Γ,χ}$ extends meromorphically to all of $\mathbb{C}$.

Second variation of Selberg zeta functions and curvature asymptotics

We give an explicit formula for the second variation of the logarithm of the Selberg zeta function, $Z(s)$, on Teichmüller space. We then use this formula to determine the asymptotic behavior as $\text{Re} (s) \to \infty$ of the second variation. As a consequence, for $m \in \mathbb{N}$, we obtain the complete expansion in $m$ of the curvature of the vector bundle $H^0(X_t, \mathcal K_t)\to t\in \mathcal T$ of holomorphic m-differentials over the Teichmüller space $\mathcal T$, for $m$ large. Moreover, we show that this curvature agrees with the Quillen curvature up to a term of exponential decay, $O(m^2 e^{-l_0 m}),$ where $l_0$ is the length of the shortest closed hyperbolic geodesic.

Eisenstein series twisted with non-expanding cusp monodromies

Let $Γ$ be a geometrically finite Fuchsian group and suppose that $χ\colonΓ\to\mathrm{GL}(V)$ is a finite-dimensional representation with non-expanding cusp monodromy. We show that the parabolic Eisenstein series for $Γ$ with twist $χ$ converges on some half-plane. Further, we develop Fourier-type expansions for these Eisenstein series.

Asymptotic expansion for the eigenvalues of a perturbed anharmonic oscillator

In this article, we study the spectral properties of the perturbation of the generalized anharmonic oscillator. We consider a piecewise Hölder continuous perturbation and investigate how the Hölder constant can affect the eigenvalues. More precisely, we derive several first terms in the asymptotic expansion for the eigenvalues.

On the asymptotics of the analytic torsion for compact hyperbolic orbifolds

We study the analytic torsion of odd-dimensional hyperbolic orbifolds $Γ\backslash \mathbb{H}^{2n+1}$, depending on a representation of $Γ$. Our main goal is to understand the asymptotic behavior of the analytic torsion with respect to sequences of representations associated to rays of highest weights.
