Modularity of special cycles in orthogonal and unitary Shimura varieties

By Salim Tayou

Since the work of Jacobi and Siegel, it is well known that Theta series of quadratic lattices produce modular forms. In a vast generalization, Kudla and Millson have proved that the generating series of special cycles in orthogonal and unitary Shimura varieties are modular forms. In this talk, I will explain an extension of these results to toroidal compactifications where we prove that, when these cycles are corrected by certain boundary cycles, the resulting generating series is still a modular form in the case of divisors in orthogonal Shimura varieties and cycles of codimension up to the middle degree in the cohomology of unitary Shimura varieties, thereby partially answering a conjecture of Kudla.
