Abstract

Let pp be a rational prime, let q>1q>1 be a pp-power integer, let Fq\mathbb{F}_q be the field of qq elements and let A=Fq[t]A=\mathbb{F}_q[t] be the polynomial ring over Fq\mathbb{F}_q. Let nA\mathfrak{n}\in A be a nonzero element and let A\wp\in A be a monic irreducible polynomial of positive degree. Let k2k\geq 2 and r1r\geq 1 be integers. Let Sk(Γ1(nr))S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r)) be the space of Drinfeld cuspforms of level Γ1(nr)\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r) and weight kk. In this paper, we prove that the multiplicity of a Hecke eigensystem of finite \wp-slope in Sk(Γ1(nr))S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r)) is equal to q(r1)deg()q^{(r-1)\mathrm{deg}(\wp)} times that in Sk(Γ1(n))S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp)). In particular, this shows that a Hecke eigensystem of finite \wp-slope appears in Sk(Γ1(nr))S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r)) if and only if it appears in Sk(Γ1(n))S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp)).
