We find and propose an explanation for a large variety of modularity-related symmetries in problems of 3-manifold topology and physics of 3d N=2 theories where such structures a priori are not manifest. These modular structures include: mock modular forms, SL(2,Z) Weil representations, quantum mo…
É.Ghys proved that the linking numbers of modular knots and the "missing" trefoil K2,3 in S3 coincide with the values of a highly ubiquitous function called the Rademacher symbol for SL2Z. In this paper, we replace SL2Z=Γ2,3 by the triangle group Γp,q for any coprime …
Researchers clarify modular group representations and vertex operator algebras for 3d invariants.
problem Understanding the full set of 3d invariants and their modular properties.
method Introducing supersymmetric defects and constructing cone vertex operator algebras.
result The full vector-valued quantum modular form for \(\widetilde{
m SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\) captures all \(\hat Z\)-invariants of a given three-manifold.
We calculate the Euler characteristics of all of the Teichmuller curves in the moduli space of genus two Riemann surfaces which are generated by holomorphic one-forms with a single double zero. These curves can all be embedded in Hilbert modular surfaces and our main result is that the Euler characteristic of a Teichmu…
In this article we construct link invariants and 3-manifold invariants from the quantum group associated with Lie superalgebra sl(2∣1). This construction based on nilpotent irreducible finite dimensional representations of quantum group Uξsl(2∣1) where ξ is a root of unity of odd …
In [AU2] we constructed the vacua modular functor based on the sheaf of vacua theory developed in [TUY] and the abelian analog in [AU1]. We here provide an explicit isomorphism from the modular functor underlying the skein-theoretic model for the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev TQFT due to Blanchet, Habbeger, Masbaum and Vog…
The paper identifies a component of representations mapping modular group elements to isometries with unique fixed points.
problem Characterizing representations of the modular group into isometry groups.
method Analyzing the space of discrete faithful representations of the modular group into Isom(X) for X=SL3(R)/SO(3).
result The space of representations has a component homeomorphic to R^2 x [0,∞), parametrized by Pappus representations and containing Anosov representations.
We study modular fibers of elliptic differentials, which are roughly spaces of torus-coverings over a fixed base torus. For genus 2 torus covers with fixed degree we show, that the modular fibers F_d(1,1) are itself connected torus covers with Veech group SL_2(Z). Using results of Eskin, Masur and Schmoll we calculate …
A new method integrates forms on Riemann surfaces, leading to modular forms.
problem Integrating differential forms with poles on Riemann surfaces.
method Simple procedure to integrate differential forms with arbitrary holomorphic poles, establishing an analytic theory for integrals over configuration spaces.
result Regularized graph integrals on elliptic curves are almost-holomorphic modular forms.
We introduce a method in differential geometry to study the derivative operators of Siegel modular forms. By determining the coefficients of the invariant Levi-Civita connection on a Siegel upper half plane, and further by calculating the expressions of the differential forms under this connection, we get a non-holomor…
We construct a Poincaré section for the horocycle flow on the modular surface SL(2,R)/SL(2,Z), and study the associated first return map, which coincides with a transformation (the {\it BCZ map}) defined by Boca-Cobeli-Zaharescu. We classify ergodic invariant measures for this map and prove equidistribution of pe…
The integrability of the geodesic flow on the three-folds M3 admitting SL(2,R)-geometry in Thurston's sense is investigated. The main examples are the quotients MΓ3=Γ\PSL(2,R), where Γ⊂PSL(2,R) is a cofinite Fuchsian group. We show that the correspon…
Fuchsian groups with a modular embedding have the richest arithmetic properties among non-arithmetic Fuchsian groups. But they are very rare, all known examples being related either to triangle groups or to Teichmueller curves. In Part I of this paper we study the arithmetic properties of the modular embedding and deve…
We construct modular categories from Hecke algebras at roots of unity. For a special choice of the framing parameter, we recover the Reshetikhin-Turaev invariants of closed 3-manifolds constructed from the quantum groups U_q sl(N) by Reshetikhin-Turaev and Turaev-Wenzl, and from skein theory by Yokota. We then discuss …
