Abstract
These notes were written to be distributed to the audience of the first author’s Takagi Lectures delivered June 23, 2018. These are based on a work-in-progress that is part of a collaborative project that also involves Akshay Venkatesh. In this work-in-progress we give a new construction of some Eisenstein classes for GL N ( Z ) that were first considered by Nori [41] and Sczech [44]. The starting point of this construction is a theorem of Sullivan on the vanishing of the Euler class of SL N ( Z ) vector bundles and the explicit transgression of this Euler class by Bismut and Cheeger. Their proof indeed produces a universal form that can be thought of as a kernel for a regularized theta lift for the reductive dual pair (GL N , GL 1 ). This suggests looking to reductive dual pairs (GL N , GL k ) with k ≥ 1 for possible generalizations of the Eisenstein cocycle. This leads to fascinating lifts that relate the geometry/topology world of real arithmetic locally symmetric spaces to the arithmetic world of modular forms. In these notes we do not deal with the most general cases and put a lot of emphasis on various examples that are often classical.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
