Applications of Kronecker’s limit formula for elliptic Eisenstein series

We develop two applications of the Kronecker’s limit formula associated to elliptic Eisenstein series: A factorization theorem for holomorphic modular forms, and a proof of Weil’s reciprocity law. Several examples of the general factorization results are computed, specifically for certain moonshine groups, congruence subgroups, and, more generally, non-compact subgroups with one cusp. In particular, we explicitly compute the Kronecker limit function associated to certain elliptic fixed points for a few small level moonshine groups.
