Dynkin diagrams, generalized Nahm sums and 2d CFTs

Kaiwen Sun, Haowu Wang

A folklore conjecture states that the Nahm sum associated with a pair of Dynkin diagrams of type is a modular function. In this paper, we extend this conjecture to Dynkin di…

On the vanishing order of Jacobi forms at infinity

Jialin Li, Haowu Wang

In this paper, we establish two types of upper bounds on the vanishing order of Jacobi forms at infinity. The first type is for classical Jacobi forms, which is optimal in a certai…

Automorphic products that are singular modulo primes

Haowu Wang, Brandon Williams

We use Rankin--Cohen brackets on O(n, 2) to prove that the Fourier coefficients of reflective Borcherds products often satisfy congruences modulo certain primes.

There are no extremal eutactic stars other than root systems

Haowu Wang

A eutactic star on an integral lattice is called extremal if it induces a holomorphic Jacobi form of lattice index and singular weight via the theta block. The famous Macdonald ide…
