Tautological modular forms of level two and degree two

Fabien Cléry, Gerard van der Geer

We show how to use divisors on the projectivized Hodge bundle to construct special vector-valued modular forms and then apply invariant theory to construct all vector-valued Siegel…

On the number of real forms of a complex variety

Gerard van der Geer, Xun Yu

We give a bound on the number of weighted real forms of a complex variety with finite automorphism group, where the weight is the inverse of the number of automorphisms of the real…
