Inequalities involving polynomials and quasimodular forms

Abstract

In this paper, we study inequalities involving polynomials and quasimodular forms. More precisely, we focus on the monotonicity of the functions of the form $t\mapsto t^{m}F(it)$ where $F$ is a quasimodular form and $m>0$. As an application, we construct infinitely many positive quasimodular forms of level $>1$. We also give alternative proofs of modular form inequalities used in the proof of optimality of Leech lattice packing and universal optimality of the lattice by Cohn, Kumar, Miller, Radchenko, and Viazovska.
