Real-dihedral harmonic Maass forms and CM-values of Hilbert modular functions

Abstract

In this paper, we study real-dihedral harmonic Maass forms and their Fourier coefficients. The main result expresses the values of Hilbert modular forms at twisted CM 0-cycles in terms of these Fourier coefficients. This is a twisted version of the main theorem in Bruinier and Yang [CM-values of Hilbert modular functions, Invent. Math.163(2006), 229–288] and provides evidence that the individual Fourier coefficients are logarithms of algebraic numbers in the appropriate real-quadratic field. From this result and numerical calculations, we formulate an algebraicity conjecture, which is an analogue of Stark’s conjecture in the setting of harmonic Maass forms. Also, we give a conjectural description of the primes appearing in CM-values of Hilbert modular functions.
