Jacobi forms and Siegel modular forms: Recent results and problems (Q1313395)

The author reviews recent developments in the connection between Jacobi forms and Siegel modular forms of genus 2 and states a lot of open problems. After preliminary definitions he describes the results concerning the Maass Spezialschar. Among the open problems in this context the generalization to skew-holomorphic Jacobi forms is emphasized. The next topic deals with the relation between the spinor zeta function of Andrianov and the Kohnen-Skoruppa Dirichlet series of Rankin-type. In the last section the author shows how the use of Jacobi forms leads to good estimates for the Fourier coefficients of Siegel modular forms. Open problems include generalizations to higher genus. Finally two conjectures on the growth of Fourier coefficients of Siegel cusp forms of genus 2 and the Petersson norm of Jacobi cusp forms are stated.
