Abstract

Theta series for indefinite quadratic lattices were introduced by Zwegers, for signature (m-1,1), Alexandrov, Banerjee, Manschot and Pioline, for signature (m-2,2), and Nazaroglu, for signature (m-q,q). These series are modular modular completions, defined by means of generalized error functions, of certain non-modular holomorphic generating series associated to lattice vectors in positive cones. We show that these modular forms arise as integrals of the theta forms, defined in work of Millson and the second author, over certain singular q-cubes. We also give an explicit formula for the integrals of such forms over singular q-simplices. The sign function occurring in the holomorphic generating series arises as in intersection number of the singular q-cube or q-simplex with a totally geodesic subsymmetric space of codimension q. The cubical case for q=2 was treated in [11].

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
