Siegelsche modulfunktionen

Bibliography: p. [336]-339.

In the spring of 1976 I had the opportunity to give a lecture on sealing modular functions at the "Ce/ure for Advanced Study in M athematics" in Chandigarh. This lecture was prepared by Dr. Sunder LaI. The first chapter of this book is largely based on this elaboration. The content of the second chapter - the satakecompactifierun- was the subject of a joint Arbc community in the year 1977 of the mathematical institutes Heidelberg and Mannheim under the leadership of Prof. R. Kiehl. The third chapter was probably the worst accessible to date. A highlight of this chapter is Dr. Y. Tai's statement that the body of the victory vision modular functions of n-th degree is almost always of a general type. This proof of this sentence was provided to me by Prof. D. Mumford during my visit to Harvard University (1981). The last chapter on rear operators was inspired by a visit by Prof. A. Andrianov at the Heidelberg Mathematical Institute in 1980. I would like to thank my colleagues very much. Likewise, Mr. R. Endres and Dr R. Weissauer, who discovered a plethora of errors in the original manuscript, and finally Mrs. von Stiernberg, who translated a poorly readable manuscript into machine writing. -- Translated from German original text.
