For a half integral weight modular form $f$ we study the signs of the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$. If $f$ is a Hecke eigenform of level $ N$ with real Nebentypus character, and $t$ is a fixed square-free positive integer with $a(t)\neq 0$,…

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…

Let $f$ and $g$ be two Hecke-Maass cusp forms of weight zero for $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ with Laplacian eigenvalues $\frac{1}{4}+u^2$ and $\frac{1}{4}+v^2$, respectively. Then both have real Fourier coefficients say, $\lambda_f(n)$ and…

We study sign changes in the sequence $\{ A(n) : n = c^2 + d^2 \}$, where $A(n)$ are the coefficients of a holomorphic cuspidal Hecke eigenform. After proving a variant of an axiomatization for detecting and quantifying sign changes…

We establish the existence of many holomorphic Hecke eigenforms $f$ of large weight $k$ for the full modular group, for which the least positive integer $n_f$ such that $\lambda_f(n_f)<0$ satisfies $n_f \ge (\log k)^{1-o(1)}.$ This is…

We establish lower bounds for (i) the numbers of positive and negative terms and (ii) the number of sign changes in the sequence of Fourier coefficients at squarefree integers of a half-integral weight modular Hecke eigenform.

In this article, we prove an omega-result for the Hecke eigenvalues $\lambda_F(n)$ of Maass forms $F$ which are Hecke eigenforms in the space of Siegel modular forms of weight $k$, genus two for the Siegel modular group $Sp_2(\Z)$. In…

In this paper, we present a quantitative result for the number of sign changes for the sequences $\{a(n^j)\}_{n\ge 1}, j=2,3,4$ of the Fourier coefficients of normalized Hecke eigen cusp forms for the full modular group $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$.…

We consider sign changes of Fourier coefficients of Hecke-Maass cusp forms for the group $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb Z)$. When the underlying form is self-dual, we show that there are $\gg_\varepsilon X^{5/6-\varepsilon}$ sign changes among the…

Let $\psi$ be a function such that $\psi(x) \rightarrow \infty$ as $x \rightarrow \infty.$ Let $\lambda_{f}(n)$ be the $n$-th Hecke eigenvalue of a fixed holomorphic cusp form $f$ for $SL(2,\mathbb{Z}).$ We show that for any real valued…

Let $f\in S_k(\Gamma_{0}(N))$ be a normalized Hecke eigenform of even integral weight $k$ and level $N$. Let $j\ge1$ be a positive integer. We prove that for almost all primes $p$, $p\nmid N$, and for all characters $\chi_{0}=\pm 1\pmod N$,…

We consider some questions related to the signs of Hecke eigenvalues or Fourier coefficients of classical modular forms. One problem is to determine to what extent those signs, for suitable sets of primes, determine uniquely the modular…

Unconditionally, we prove the Iwaniec-Sarnak conjecture for $L^4$-norms of the Hecke-Maass cusp forms. From this result, we can justify that for even Maass cusp form $\phi$ with the eigenvalue $\lambda_{\phi}=\frac{1}{4}+t_{\phi}^2$, for…

Let $f$ be a half-integral weight cusp form of level $4N$ for odd and squarefree $N$ and let $a(n)$ denote its $n^{\rm th}$ normalized Fourier coefficient. Assuming that all the coefficients $a(n)$ are real, we study the sign of $a(n)$ when…

We extend the axiomatization for detecting and quantifying sign changes of Meher and Murty to sequences of complex numbers. We further generalize this result when the sequence is comprised of the coefficients of an $L$-function. As…
