1. Vector-valued Eisenstein series of congruence types and their products
Abstract : Historically, Kohnen and Zagier connected modular forms with period polynomials, and as a consequence of this association concluded that the products of at most two Eisenstein series span all spaces of classical modular forms of level 1. Later Borisov and Gunnells among other authors extended the result to higher levels. READ MORE

2. Some Cases of Kudla’s Modularity Conjecture for Unitary Shimura Varieties
Abstract : A common theme of the thesis is the interplay of symmetry and rigidity, which is a general phenomenon in mathematics. Symmetry is a notion related to the degree to which an object remains unchanged under transformations, and rigidity is a notion that in terms of physics can be thought of as a lack of freedom, which leads to stronger properties of an object than we normally expect.

3. Computing Vector-valued Modular Forms of Congruence Types and of Some Extension Types
Abstract : This thesis explores applications of vector-valued modular forms of congruence and extension types to scalar-valued modular forms for congruence subgroups with a character, higher order modular forms, and iterated Eichler-Shimura integrals of depth one and two, including considerable generalizations thereof. In \textsc{Paper I} (co-authored with Martin Raum), we present an algorithm for computing bases for spaces of vector-valued modular forms of congruence type and of weight at least $2$ in terms of products of components of vector-valued Eisenstein series.

4. Some applications of representation theory in homogeneous dynamics and automorphic functions
Abstract : This thesis consists of an introduction and five papers in the general area of dynamics and functions on homogeneous spaces. A common feature is that representation theory plays a key role in all articles. READ MORE

5. Automorphic forms and string theory: Small automorphic representations and non-perturbative effects
Abstract : This compilation thesis stems from a project with the purpose of determining non-perturbative contributions to scattering amplitudes in string theory carrying important information about instantons, black hole quantum states and M-theory. The scattering amplitudes are functions on the moduli space invariant under the discrete U-duality group and this invariance is one of the defining properties of an automorphic form. READ MORE
