Special values of hypergeometric functions and periods of CM elliptic curves

楊一帆教授交大應用數學系 下午 2:30–4:00 Hongjing Hall 107 室
Abstract: In this talk, we will present some interesting evaluations of hypergeometric functions. To obtain these evaluations, we realize modular forms on Shimura curves in two ways, firstly in terms of solutions of Schwarzian differential equations and secondly as Borcherds forms, and then use Schofer's formula for values of Borcherds forms at CM-points.
