In this article we give a criterion for a mod $\ell$ eigenvalue system attached to a mod $\ell$ Katz cuspform to arise from lower level or weight. Namely, we prove the following: the eigenvalue system associated to a ring homomorphism…
We describe a novel method for bounding the dimension $d$ of the largest simple Hecke submodule of $S_2(\Gamma_0(N);\mathbb{Q})$ from below. Such bounds are of interest because of their relevance to the structure of $J_0(N)$, for instance.…
We calculate the effect of simple Hecke operators on u-expansions of higher rank Drinfeld modular forms, the eigenvalue for the Drinfeld discriminant function $\Delta_t$ and show that a certain natural class of Hecke operators is completely…
We address some questions posed by Goss related to the modularity of Drinfeld modules of rank 1 defined over the field of rational functions in one variable with coefficients in a finite field. For each positive characteristic valued…
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…
Let $\lambda$ be a self-dual Hecke character over a CM field $K$. Let $\mathfrak{p}$ be a degree one prime of the maximal totally real subfield $F$ of $K$ and $\Gamma_{\mathfrak{p}}$ the Galois group of the anticyclotomic…
Let $(\omega^n,\preceq)$ be the direct power of $n$ instances of $(\omega,\leq)$, natural numbers with the standard ordering, $(\omega^n,\prec)$ the direct power of $n$ instances of $(\omega,<)$. We show that for all finite $n$, the modal…
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…
This paper answers a question of Gross and others, by exhibiting specific examples of Hecke algebras where mod 2 multiplicity one fails for some modular forms, and the associated Hecke algebras are not Gorenstein. It shows that the methods…
Modular motives have coefficients in Hecke algebras. According to the equivariant philosophy, special values of $L$-functions of eigencuspforms should therefore exhibit equivariant properties with respect to various Hecke actions. This…
The standard approach to evaluate Hecke eigenvalues of a Siegel modular eigenform F is to determine a large number of Fourier coefficients of F and then compute the Hecke action on those coefficients. We present a new method based on the…
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…
Let $\cH$ be the one-parameter Hecke algebra associated to a finite Weyl group $W$, defined over a ground ring in which ``bad'' primes for $W$ are invertible. Using deep properties of the Kazhdan--Lusztig basis of $\cH$ and Lusztig's…
We compute the moments of L-functions of symmetric powers of modular forms at the edge of the critical strip, twisted by the central value of the L-functions of modular forms. We show that, in the case of even powers, it is equivalent to…
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 evaluate the action of Hecke operators on Siegel Eisenstein series of arbitrary degree, level and character. For square-free level, we simultaneously diagonalise the space with respect to all the Hecke operators, computing the…
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…
We prove that amongst all real quadratic fields and all spaces of Hilbert modular forms of full level and of weight $2$ or greater, the product of two Hecke eigenforms is not a Hecke eigenform except for finitely many real quadratic fields…
We find some modularity criterion for a product of Klein forms of the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_1(N)$ and, as its application, construct a basis of the space of modular forms for $\Gamma_1(13)$ of weight $2$. In the process we face with…
In a 1987 letter, Serre proves that the systems of Hecke eigenvalues arising from mod $p$ modular forms (of fixed level $\Gamma(N)$ coprime to $p$, and any weight $k$) are the same as those arising from functions $\Omega(N) \to \bar{\mathbb…
