Abstract

Let Mk(4)M_k^\sharp(4) be the space of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight kk and level 44 that are holomorphic away from the cusp at \infty. We define a canonical basis for this space and show that for almost all of the basis elements, the majority of their zeros in a fundamental domain for Γ0(4)\Gamma_0(4) lie on the lower boundary of the fundamental domain. Additionally, we show that the Fourier coefficients of the basis elements satisfy an interesting duality property.
