About the Lab

Professor Dohoon Choi's research lab specializes in arithmetic and analytic number theory, with a focus on modular forms, harmonic Maass forms, and their arithmetic properties. The lab investigates deep connections between mock modular forms, Jacobi forms, and Eichler cohomology, particularly through the lens of Zagier duality and supplementary function theory. Recent work also extends to the arithmetic of Siegel modular forms and the study of congruences and filtrations in modular spaces. The lab further explores applications in mathematical physics and engineering, such as the design of wideband, harmonic-suppressing antennas using number-theoretic principles in signal processing and electromagnetic design.

Mock modular forms and quantum modular forms
Dohoon Choi, Subong Lim, Robert C. Rhoades
SJR Q1Proceedings of the American Mathematical SocietyOA

In his last letter to Hardy, Ramanujan introduced mock theta functions. For each of his examples $f(q)$, Ramanujan claimed that there is a collection $\{ G_j\}$ of modular forms such that for each root of unity $\zeta$, there is a $j$ such that \[ \lim _{q \to \zeta }(f(q) - G_j(q)) = O(1).\] Moreover, Ramanujan claimed that this collection must have size larger than $1$. In his 2001 PhD thesis, Zwegers showed that the mock theta functions are the holomorphic parts of harmonic weak Maass forms.

Sturm type theorem for Siegel modular forms of genus 2 modulo p

Suppose that $f$ is an elliptic modular form with integral coefficients. Sturm obtained bounds for a nonnegative integer $n$ such that every Fourier coefficient of $f$ vanishes modulo a prime $p$ if the first $n$ Fourier coefficients of $f$ are zero modul

Structures for pairs of mock modular forms with the Zagier duality
Dohoon Choi, Subong Lim
SJR Q1Transactions of the American Mathematical SocietyOA

Zagier introduced special bases for weakly holomorphic modular forms to give the new proof of Borcherds’ theorem on the infinite product expansions of integer weight modular forms on $\mathrm {SL}_2(\mathbb {Z})$ with a Heegner divisor. These good bases appear in pairs, and they satisfy a striking duality, which is now called Zagier duality. After the result of Zagier, this type of duality was studied broadly in various viewpoints, including the theory of a mock modular form. In this paper, we

The Eichler cohomology theorem for Jacobi forms
Dohoon Choi, Subong Lim
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

Let $Γ$ be a finitely generated Fuchsian group of the first kind which has at least one parabolic class. Eichler introduced a cohomology theory for Fuchsian groups, called as "Eichler cohomology theory", and established the $\CC$-linear isomorphism from the direct sum of two spaces of cusp forms on $Γ$ with the same integral weight to the Eichler cohomology group of $Γ$. After the results of Eichler, the Eichler cohomology theory was generalized in various ways. For example, these results were g

A Broadband T-Shaped Microstrip-line-fed Slot Antenna with Harmonic Suppression
Dohoon Choi, Y.J. Cho, S. O. Park

In this paper, a slot antenna is proposed to achieve both harmonic suppression and wide bandwidth. To obtain these results, a T-shaped microstrip-line-fed slot antenna and U-shaped conductor line connected with the ground plane are applied. At the fundamental and harmonic frequencies, return loss and radiation characteristics are measured and compared with those of the conventional slot antenna. For the proposed antenna, the 10-dB return loss bandwidth could reach 1220 MHz (1730-2950 MHz), which
