Abstract

We prove the non-vanishing of a Jacobi Poincaré series for the group \(\varGamma _0(N) \ltimes (\mathbb {Z}^{(g,1)}\times \mathbb {Z}^{(g,1)})\) and matrix index under suitable conditions. In the case when the index is an integer, we improve the conditions of non-vanishing by using the Eichler–Zagier map.
