Abstract

Let Γ=Γ(N)\Gamma=\Gamma(N) be a principal congruence subgroup of SL2(Z)SL_2(\mathbb Z). In this paper, we extend the theory of modular Hecke algebras due to Connes and Moscovici to define the algebra Q(Γ)\mathcal Q(\Gamma) of quasimodular Hecke operators of level Γ\Gamma. Then, Q(Γ)\mathcal Q(\Gamma) carries an action of "the Hopf algebra H1\mathcal H_1 of codimension 11 foliations" that also acts on the modular Hecke algebra A(Γ)\mathcal A(\Gamma) of Connes and Moscovici. However, in the case of quasimodular forms, we have several new operators acting on the quasimodular Hecke algebra Q(Γ)\mathcal Q(\Gamma). Further, for each σSL2(Z)\sigma\in SL_2(\mathbb Z), we introduce the collection Qσ(Γ)\mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma) of quasimodular Hecke operators of level Γ\Gamma twisted by σ\sigma. Then, Qσ(Γ)\mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma) is a right Q(Γ)\mathcal Q(\Gamma)-module and is endowed with a pairing (__,__):Qσ(Γ)Qσ(Γ)Qσ(Γ)(\_\_,\_\_):\mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma)\otimes \mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma)\longrightarrow \mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma). We show that there is a "Hopf action" of a certain Hopf algebra h1\mathfrak{h}_1 on the pairing on Qσ(Γ)\mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma). Finally, for any σSL2(Z)\sigma\in SL_2(\mathbb Z), we consider operators acting between the levels of the graded module Qσ(Γ)=mZQσ(m)(Γ)\mathbb Q_\sigma(\Gamma)=\underset{m\in \mathbb Z}{\oplus}\mathcal Q_{\sigma(m)}(\Gamma), where σ(m)=(1m01)σ\sigma(m)=\begin{pmatrix} 1 & m \\ 0 & 1 \\ \end{pmatrix}\cdot \sigma for any mZm\in \mathbb Z. The pairing on Qσ(Γ)\mathcal Q_\sigma(\Gamma) can be extended to a graded pairing on Qσ(Γ)\mathbb Q_\sigma(\Gamma) and we show that there is a Hopf action of a larger Hopf algebra hZh1\mathfrak{h}_{\mathbb Z}\supseteq \mathfrak{h}_1 on the pairing on Qσ(Γ)\mathbb Q_\sigma(\Gamma).
