In this article, we investigate a non-Archimedean analogue of a question of Atkin and Serre. More precisely, we derive lower bounds for the largest prime factor of non-zero Fourier coefficients of non-CM normalized cuspidal Hecke eigenforms…
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 $a(t)\neq 0$,…
We report on observations we made on computational data that suggest a generalization of Maeda's conjecture regarding the number of Galois orbits of newforms of level $N = 1$, to higher levels. They also suggest a possible formula for this…
Let p be a prime and F a totally real field in which p is unramified. We consider mod p Hilbert modular forms for F, defined as sections of automorphic line bundles on Hilbert modular varieties of level prime to p in characteristic p. For a…
In this paper we present two new results on the number of certain conjugacy classes of a finite group. For a finite group $G$, let $n(G)$ be the maximum of $k_{p}(G)$ taken over all primes $p$ where $k_{p}(G)$ denotes the number of…
We prove multiplicative relations between certain Fourier coefficients of degree 2 Siegel eigenforms. These relations are analogous to those for elliptic eigenforms. We also provide two sets of formulas for the eigenvalues of degree 2…
For prime levels $5 \le p \le 19$, sets of $\Gamma_{0}(p)$-permuted theta quotients are constructed that generate the graded rings of modular forms of positive integer weight for $\Gamma_{1}(p)$. An explicit formulation of the permutation…
Let $f(z)=q+\sum_{n\geq 2}a(n)q^n$ be a weight $k$ normalized newform with integer coefficients and trivial residual mod 2 Galois representation. We extend the results of Amir and Hong in \cite{AH} for $k=2$ by ruling out or locating all…
For a fixed rational number g and integers a and d the sets N_g(a,d), respectively R_g(a,d), of primes p for which the order, respectively the index of g(mod p) is congruent to a(mod d), are considered. Under the Generalized Riemann…
In this article, we estimate the density of the set of primes $p$ such that the $p$-th Hecke eigenvalue of an Ikeda lift is divisible by a fixed positive integer. One of the main ingredients involves the study of abelian subfields of fixed…
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…
Let $f$ and $f'$ be genus $2$ cuspidal Siegel paramodular newforms. We prove that if their Hecke eigenvalues $a_p$ and $a_p'$ satisfy a non-trivial polynomial relation $P(a_p, a_p') = 0$ for a set of primes $p$ of positive density, then $f$…
The abstract of the original paper was as follows: We explore some questions related to one of Brizolis: does every prime p have a pair (g,h) such that h is a fixed point for the discrete logarithm with base g? We extend this question to…
Let $p\ge 7$ be a prime number and $f$ a normalized eigen-newform with good reduction at $p$ such that its $p$-th Fourier coefficient vanishes. We construct a rank-two Euler system attached to the $p$-adic realization of the symmetric…
In this follow-up paper, we again inspect a surprising relationship between the set of fixed points of a polynomial map $\varphi_{d, c}$ defined by $\varphi_{d, c}(z) = z^d + c$ for all $c, z \in \mathcal{O}_{K}$ or $\in \mathbb{Z}_{p}$ or…
For an odd prime $p$ and an integer $w\ge 1$, polynomial quotients $q_{p,w}(u)$ are defined by $$ q_{p,w}(u)\equiv \frac{u^w-u^{wp}}{p} \bmod p ~~ \mathrm{with}~~ 0 \le q_{p,w}(u) \le p-1, ~~u\ge 0, $$ which are generalizations of Fermat…
Let F in S_k(Sp(2g, Z)) be a cuspidal Siegel eigenform of genus g with normalized Hecke eigenvalues mu_F(n). Suppose that the associated automorphic representation pi_F is locally tempered everywhere. For each c>0 we consider the set of…
Let $G$ denote a compact monothetic group, and let $$\rho (x) = \alpha_k x^k + \ldots + \alpha_1 x + \alpha_0,$$ where $\alpha_0, \ldots , \alpha_k$ are elements of $G$ one of which is a generator of $G$. Let $(p_n)_{n\geq 1}$ denote the…
For a rational prime $p \geq 3$ we consider $p$-ordinary, Hilbert modular newforms $f$ of weight $k\geq 2$ with associated $p$-adic Galois representations $\rho_f$ and $\mod{p^n}$ reductions $\rho_{f,n}$. Under suitable hypotheses on the…
For integers x and k, let T(x;2k) denote the number of twin prime pairs (p,p+2k) with a distance 2k<=2x**0.5 and p<=x (not p+2k<=x). Let Tg(x;2x**0.5) denote the average of T(x;2k) for all 2k<=2x**0.5. Logically, T(x;2k) should be a…
