Relations de Manin d'ordre 2 vérifiées par le polynôme des bi-périodes d'un couple de formes modulaires

Manin's relations characterize period polynomials of a modular form. In this paper, we propose a finite set of relations checked by bi-period polynomials of a couple of forms. Then we construct an Eisenstein part of depth 2 which essentially completed the set of bi-periods polynomials among polynomials canceled by the relations. By giving a computational description of that part, we prove a result of irrationality of ratio of the periods for some weights.

Valeurs multiples de fonctions L de formes modulaires

This doctoral thesis studies the overlap between two well-known collections of results in number theory: the theory of periods and period polynomials of modular forms as developed by Eichler, Shimura and Manin and its extensions by Köhnen and Zagier, and the theory of 'multiple zeta values' (MZV's) as initied by Euler and studied by many authors in the last two decades. These two theories had been linked by Manin, who introduced 'multiple L-values' (MLV's). We propose to study those families of number and especially the relations among them, generalizing the Eichler-Shimura-Manin relations, and also linked some of those MLV's to MZV's.
