Abstract: We define L-functions for the class of real-analytic modular forms recently introduced by F. Brown. We establish their main properties and construct the analogue of period polynomial in cases of special interest, including those of modular iterated integrals.


The authors define \(L\)-functions for real-analytic modular forms for the group \(\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb Z)\) which have at most exponential growth at the cusp \(\infty\). If \(f\) is a modular integral in the sense of \textit{F. Brown} [Res. Math. Sci. 5, No. 3, Paper No. 34, 36 p. (2018; Zbl 1440.11071)], then the authors define its period function and prove that its coefficients can be expressed in terms of special \(L\)-values of \(f\). For weakly holomorphic cusp forms, the authors also prove an analogue of Manin's period theorem [\textit{Yu. I. Manin}, Mat. Sb., Nov. Ser. 92(134), 378--401 (1973; Zbl 0293.14007)]. It should be mentioned that, independently, Brown has introduced \(L\)-functions of modular iterated integrals of Eisenstein series [\textit{F. Brown}, Forum Math. Sigma 8, Paper No. 31, 62 p. (2020; Zbl 1452.11054)].
