On the Modular Completion of Certain Generating Functions

We complete several generating functions to non-holomorphic modular forms in two variables. For instance, we consider the generating function of a natural family of meromorphic modular forms of weight two. We then show that this generating series can be completed to a smooth, non-holomorphic modular form of weights $\frac 32$ and two. Moreover, it turns out that the same function is also a modular completion of the generating function of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight $\frac 32$, which prominently appear in work of Zagier [ 27] on traces of singular moduli.

On some automorphic properties of Galois traces of class invariants from generalized Weber functions of level 5

After the significant work of Zagier on the traces of singular moduli, Jeon, Kang and Kim showed that the Galois traces of real-valued class invariants given in terms of the singular values of the classical Weber functions can be identified with the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight 3/2 on the congruence subgroups of higher genus by using the Bruinier-Funke modular traces. Extending their work, we construct real-valued class invariants by using the singular values of the generalized Weber functions of level 5 and prove that their Galois traces are Fourier coefficients of a harmonic weak Maass form of weight 3/2 by using Shimura’s reciprocity law.

Differential operators on polar harmonic Maass forms and elliptic duality

In this paper, we study polar harmonic Maass forms of negative integral weight. Using work of Fay, we construct Poincaré series which span the space of such forms and show that their elliptic coefficients exhibit duality properties which are similar to the properties known for Fourier coefficients of harmonic Maass forms and weakly holomorphic modular forms.
