Igusa's map on modular forms vanishing on the hyperelliptic locus
We extend Igusa's map $ρ$ to modular forms which vanish on the hyperelliptic locus of the Siegel upper half-plane. The lowest non-vanishing derivatives of such modular forms are computed with the help of the general Thomae formula, they serve as vector-valued modular forms. This approach is illustrated by examples in genera $3$ and $4$.
