Abstract

Eta quotients on Γ0(6)\Gamma_0(6) yield evaluations of sunrise integrals at 2, 3, 4 and 6 loops. At 2 and 3 loops, they provide modular parametrizations of inhomogeneous differential equations whose solutions are readily obtained by expanding in the nome qq. Atkin-Lehner transformations that permute cusps ensure fast convergence for all external momenta. At 4 and 6 loops, on-shell integrals are periods of modular forms of weights 4 and 6 given by Eichler integrals of eta quotients. Weakly holomorphic eta quotients determine quasi-periods. A Rademacher sum formula is given for Fourier coefficients of an eta quotient that is a Hauptmodul for Γ0(6)\Gamma_0(6) and its generalization is found for all levels with genus 0, namely for N=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,16,18,25N = 1,2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, 13, 16, 18, 25. There are elliptic obstructions at N=11,14,15,17,19,20,21,24,27,32,36,49,N = 11, 14, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 24, 27, 32, 36, 49, with genus 1. We surmount these, finding explicit formulas for Fourier coefficients of eta quotients in thousands of cases. We show how to handle the levels N=22,23,26,28,29,31,37,50N=22, 23, 26, 28, 29, 31, 37, 50, with genus 2, and the levels N=30,33,34,35,39,40,41,43,45,48,64N=30,33,34,35,39,40,41,43,45,48,64, with genus 3. We also solve examples with genera 4,5,6,7,8,134,5,6,7,8,13.
