String Automorphic Motives of nondiagonal Varieties    [PDF]

Rolf Schimmrigk

In this paper automorphic motives are constructed and analyzed with a view toward the understanding of the geometry of compactification manifolds in string theory in terms of the modular structure of the worldsheet theory. The results described generalize a framework considered previously in two ways, first by relaxing the restriction to modular forms, and second by extending the construction of motives from diagonal varieties to nondiagonal spaces. The framework of automorphic forms and representations is described with a view toward applications, emphasizing the explicit structure of these objects.
