We generalize the recent work of Viazovska by constructing infinite families of Schwartz functions, suitable for Cohn–Elkies style linear programming bounds, using quasi-modular and modular forms. In particular, for dimensions $$d \equiv 0 \pmod {8}$$ d ≡ 0 ( mod 8 ) , we give new constructions for obtaining sphere packing upper bounds via modular forms. In dimension 8 and 24, these exactly match the functions constructed by Viazovska and Cohn, Kumar, Miller, Radchenko, and Viazovska which resolved the sphere packing problem in those dimensions.
