We derive an explicit upper bound for the number of systems of Hecke eigenvalues coming from Siegel modular forms (mod p) of dimension g and level N relatively prime to p. In the special case of elliptic modular forms (g=1), our result…

This work represents a systematic computational study of the distribution of the Fourier coefficients of cuspidal Hecke eigenforms of level $\Gamma_0(4)$ and half-integral weights. Based on substantial calculations, the question is raised…

We study a class of meromorphic modular forms characterised by Fourier coefficients that satisfy certain divisibility properties. We present new candidates for these so-called magnetic modular forms, and we conjecture properties that these…

Hecke eigenvalues of classical modular forms often encode a wealth of arithmetic data. The Satake $p$-parameters of a Siegel modular form play a role analogous to the one played by Hecke eigenvalues in the characterization of classical…

Let f be a modular form with complex multiplication. If f has critical slope, then Coleman's classicality theorem implies that there is a p-adic overconvergent generalized Hecke eigenform with the same Hecke eigenvalues as f. We give a…

The aim of this paper is to show how differential characters of Abelian varieties can be used to construct differential modular forms of weight 0 and order 2 which are eigenvectors of Hecke operators. These differential modular forms have…

Let N be a positive integer and let f be a newform of weight 2 on \Gamma_0(N). In earlier joint work with K. Ribet and W. Stein, we introduced the notions of the modular number and the congruence number of the quotient abelian variety A_f…

We exhibit algorithms to compute systems of Hecke eigenvalues for spaces of Hilbert modular forms over a totally real field. We provide many explicit examples as well as applications to modularity and Galois representations.

Classical modular forms of small weight and low level are likely to have a negative second Fourier coefficient. Similarly, the labeling scheme for elliptic curves tends to give smaller labels to the higher-rank curves. These observations…

In this article, we investigate large prime factors of Fourier coefficients of non-CM normalized cuspidal Hecke eigenforms in short intervals. One of the new ingredients involves deriving an explicit version of Chebotarev density theorem in…

In this note, we explicitly construct mock modular forms with integral Fourier coefficients by evaluating regularized Petersson inner products involving their shadows, which are unary theta functions of weights 1/2 and 3/2 . In addition, we…

We prove a commutative algebra result which has consequences for congruences between automorphic forms modulo prime powers. If C denotes the congruence module for a fixed automorphic Hecke eigenform \pi_0 we prove an exact relation between…

For a half-integral weight modular form $f = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}} q^n$ of weight $k = l +\frac{1}{2}$ on $\Gamma_0(4)$ such that $a_f(n)$ ($n$ $\in$ $\mathbb{N}$) are real, we prove for a fixed suitable natural number…

Given two distinct newforms with real Fourier coefficients, we show that the set of primes where the Hecke eigenvalues of one of them dominate the Hecke eigenvalues of the other has density at least 1/16. Furthermore, if the two newforms do…

We study statistical properties of Fourier coefficients of automorphic forms on GL(n). For most Hecke-Maass cusp forms, we give the asymptotic number of nonvanishing coefficients, show that there is a positive proportion of sign changes…

We study congruences modulo powers of a prime $p$ between pairs of $p$-new modular Hecke eigenforms of level $\Gamma_0(p)$ and same weight $k$. Based on explicit computations, we conjecture that every such eigenform $f$ admits a twin to…

Let $k$ and $n$ be positive even integers. For a Hecke eigenform $h$ in the Kohnen plus subspace of weight $k-n/2+1/2$ for $\varGamma_0(4)$, let $I_n(h)$ be the Duke-Imamoglu-Ikeda lift of $h$ to the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ for…

We investigate the numerical computation of Maass cusp forms for the modular group corresponding to large eigenvalues. We present Fourier coefficients of two cusp forms whose eigenvalues exceed r=40000. These eigenvalues are the largest…

Let $f$ be a Hecke cusp form of weight $k$ for the full modular group, and let $\{\lambda_f(n)\}_{n\geq 1}$ be the sequence of its normalized Fourier coefficients. Motivated by the problem of the first sign change of $\lambda_f(n)$, we…

We provide a simple and new induction based treatment of the problem of distinguishing cusp forms from the growth of the Fourier coefficients of modular forms. Our approach gives the best possible ranges of the weights for this problem, and…
