We describe an $E_8$ correspondence for the multiplicative eta-products of weight at least $4$.

Jacobi-like forms for a discrete subgroup $\G \subset \SL(2,\mbb R)$ are formal power series with coefficients in the space of functions on the Poincar\'e upper half plane satisfying a certain functional equation, and they correspond to sequences of certain modular forms. We introduce Hecke operators acting on the space of Jacobi-like forms and obtain an explicit formula for such an action in terms of modular forms. We also prove that those Hecke operator actions on Jacobi-like forms are compatible with the usual Hecke operator actions on modular forms.

We define generalized Mellin transforms of mixed cusp forms, show their convergence, and prove that the function obtained by such a Mellin transform of a mixed cusp form satisfies a certain functional equation. We also prove that a mixed cusp form can be identified with a holomorphic form of the highest degree on an elliptic variety.
