Abstract
We investigate the six quaternionic theta constants introduced by Freitag and Hermann. More precisely we investigate their restrictions to the Hermitian resp. Siegel half-space of degree 2. It turns out that these theta constants generate the graded ring of symmetric Hermitian modular forms for the principal congruence subgroup of level 1 + i over the Gaussian number field resp. of Siegel modular forms for the principal congruence subgroup of level 2 and even weight. As an application we obtain a simple construction of Igusa’s Siegel modular form of degree 2 and weight 30 with respect to the non-trivial character.
