Title:

Counting torsion 2 dimensional sheaves in CY3 and modular forms

Abstract:

There is a conjecture by physicists that counting of torsion sheaves with 2 dimensional support deforming in ambient Calabi Yau threefold is governed by modular form partition functions. I will discuss some of the results I have had in this direction during the past 15 years.

      Curves of genus three and Picard modular forms

      Abstract:Some Shimura varieties can be interpreted as moduli spaces of curves. In such cases this can be used to get information about modular forms. We discuss a ball quotient related to moduli of curves of genus three. We study cohomology of local systems and calculate the traces of Hecke operators by counting points on curves over finite fields. We also construct all vector-valued Picard mo...
