Let $F$ be the element $\sum_{n\ \mathit{odd},\ n>0}x^{n^{2}}$ of $Z/2[[x]]$. Set $G=F(x^{5})$, $D=F(x)+F(x^{25})$. For $k>0$, $(k,10)=1$, define $D_{k}$ as follows. $D_{1}=D$, $D_{3}=D^{8}/G$, $D_{7}=D^{2}G$, $D_{9}=D^{4}G$; furthermore…
Let $M(\mathit{odd})\subset Z/2[[x]]$ be the space of odd mod~2 modular forms of level $\Gamma_{0}(3)$. It is known that the formal Hecke operators $T_{p}:Z/2[[x]]\rightarrow Z/2[[x]]$, $p$ an odd prime other than $3$, stabilize…
I begin with a simple modular form motivated proof of the following: Let $C_{n}$ in $Z/2[[t]]$ be defined by $C_{n+4} = C_{n+3} + (t^{4}+t^{3}+t^{2}+t)C_{n} + t^{n}(t^{2}+t)$, with initial values $0$, $1$, $t$ and $t^{2}$ for $C_{0}$,…
We use deformation theory to study the big Hecke algebra acting on mod-2 modular forms of prime level $N$ and all weights, especially its local component at the trivial representation. For $N = 3, 5$, we prove that the maximal reduced…
In this paper we show that the classical Hecke correspondences T_N, N>0, act on the free abelian groups generated by the conjugacy classes of the modular group SL_2(Z) and the conjugacy classes of its profinite completion. We show that this…
We study the index of nilpotency relative to certain Hecke operators in spaces of modular forms with integer weight and level $N$ with integer coefficients modulo primes $p$ for $(p, N) \in \{(3, 1), (5, 1), (7, 1), (3, 4)\}$. In these…
A well-known observation of Serre and Tate is that the Hecke algebra acts locally nilpotently on modular forms mod 2 on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We give an algorithm for calculating the degree of Hecke nilpotency for cusp forms, and we…
The present paper studies Hecke rings derived by the automorphism groups of certain algebras $L_p$ over the ring of $p$-adic integers. Our previous work considered the case where $L_p$ is the Heisenberg Lie algebra (of dimension 3) over the…
In arXiv:1603.03910 [math.NT] we introduced some $C_{n}$ in $Z/2[t]$ defined by a linear recurrence and showed that each $C_{n}$, $n\equiv 0 \bmod{4}$, is a sum of $C_{k}$, $k<n$. Combining this with results from arXiv:1508.07523 [math.NT]…
Let $\Delta= \sum_{m=0}^\infty q^{(2m+1)^2} \in \mathbb{F}_2[[q]]$ be the reduction mod 2 of the $\Delta$ series. A modular form $f$ modulo $2$ of level 1 is a polynomial in $\Delta$. If $p$ is an odd prime, then the Hecke operator $T_p$…
In this paper we consider the integral orthogonal group with respect to the quadratic form of signature $(2,3)$ given by $\left(\begin{smallmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0 \end{smallmatrix}\right) \perp \left(\begin{smallmatrix} 0 & 1 \\ 1 & 0…
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for $L$-functions attached to primitive Dirichlet characters, modular cusp forms, and their tensor products and symmetric squares, we write down explicit finite sets of Hecke operators that span the Hecke…
The nilpotence order of the mod 2 Hecke operators. Let $\Delta=\sum_{m=0}^\infty q^{(2m+1)^2} \in F_2[[q]]$ be the reduction mod 2 of the $\Delta$ series. A modular form f modulo 2 of level 1 is a polynomial in $\Delta$. If p is an odd…
We study Hecke operators on vector-valued modular forms for the Weil representation $\rho_L$ of a lattice $L$. We first construct Hecke operators $\mathcal{T}_r$ that map vector-valued modular forms of type $\rho_L$ into vector-valued…
Let T_k denote the Hecke algebra acting on newforms of weight k and level N. We prove that the power of p dividing the index of T_k inside its normalisation grows at least linearly with k (for fixed N), answering a question of Serre. We…
Modular forms mod 2 : structure of the Hecke ring We show that the Hecke algebra for modular forms mod 2 of level 1 is isomorphic to the power series ring F2[[x, y]], where x = T3 and y = T5.
For a prime number $q\geq 5$ and a positive integer $N$ prime to $q$, Ribet proved the action of the Hecke algebra on the component group of the Jacobian variety of the modular curve of level $Nq$ at $q$ is "Eisenstein", which means the…
We prove multiplicity one for vector valued holomorphic Siegel modular forms of weights greater or equal to 3 and the full Siegel modular group and give a trace formula for the action of the Hecke operators T(p) in the regular cases.
Inspired by Borcherds' questions, Guerzhoy constructed a new type of Hecke operators $\mathcal{T}(p)$, called the multiplicative Hecke operators, which acts on the space of meromorphic modular forms on the full modular group ${\rm SL}(\Z)$.…
We introduce an alternate set of generators for the Hecka algebra, and give an explicit formula for the action of these operators on Fourier coefficients. With this, we compute the eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on average Siegel…
