Let $N$ be a non-squarefree positive integer and let $\ell$ be an odd prime such that $\ell^2$ does not divide $N$. Consider the Hecke ring $\mathbb{T}(N)$ of weight $2$ for $\Gamma_0(N)$, and its rational Eisenstein primes of…
Let $\mathcal{C}_N$ be the cuspidal subgroup of the Jacobian $J_0(N)$ for a square-free integer $N>6$. For any Eisenstein maximal ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ of the Hecke ring of level $N$, we show that $\mathcal{C}_N[\mathfrak{m}]\neq 0$. To…
We use pseudodeformation theory to study the analogue of Mazur's Eisenstein ideal with certain squarefree levels. Given a prime number $p>3$ and a squarefree number $N$ satisfying certain conditions, we study the Eisenstein part of the…
We construct a basis for the space of half-integral weight Siegel Eisenstein series of level 4N where N is odd and square-free. Then we restrict our attention to those Eisenstein series generated from elements of $\Gamma_0(4)$, commenting…
Let N be a square-free positive integer and let f be a newform of weight 2 on \Gamma_0(N). Let A denote the abelian subvariety of J_0(N) associated to f and let m be a maximal ideal of the Hecke algebra T that contains Ann_T(f) and has…
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…
An effective formula for the Bergman kernel on $\mathbb{H}_{\gamma} = \{|z_1|^\gamma < |z_2| < 1 \}$ is obtained for rational $\gamma = \frac{m}{n} >1$. The formula depends on arithmetic properties of $\gamma$, which uncovers new symmetries…
Let $\frak{n}$ be a square-free ideal of $\mathbb{F}_q[T]$. We study the rational torsion subgroup of the Jacobian variety $J_0(\frak{n})$ of the Drinfeld modular curve $X_0(\frak{n})$. We prove that for any prime number $\ell$ not dividing…
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…
Let $p\geq 5$ be prime. For elliptic modular forms of weight 2 and level $\Gamma_0(N)$ where $N>6$ is squarefree, we bound the depth of Eisenstein congruences modulo $p$ (from below) by a generalized Bernoulli number with correction factors…
Let $p$ and $q$ be distinct primes. Consider the Shimura curve $\mathcal{X}$ associated to the indefinite quaternion algebra of discriminant $pq$ over $\mathbb{Q}$. Let $J$ be the Jacobian variety of $\mathcal{X}$, which is an abelian…
Let $n_0(N,k)$ be the number of initial Fourier coefficients necessary to distinguish newforms of level $N$ and even weight $k$. We produce extensive data to support our conjecture that if $N$ is a fixed squarefree positive integer and $k$…
Let $n$ be a positive square-free integer, where every odd prime factor of $n$ has form $8a\pm 1$. We determine when $n$ is non-congruent with second minimal $2$-primary Shafarevich-Tate group, in terms of the $4$-ranks of class groups and…
Given a separable nonconstant polynomial $f(x)$ with integer coefficients, we consider the set $S$ consisting of the squarefree parts of all the rational values of $f(x)$, and study its behavior modulo primes. Fixing a prime $p$, we…
We study the Bergman kernel of certain domains in $\mathbb{C}^n$, called elementary Reinhardt domains, generalizing the classical Hartogs triangle. For some elementary Reinhardt domains, we explicitly compute the kernel, which is a rational…
We evaluate the action of Hecke operators on Siegel Eisenstein series of degree 2, square-free level and arbitrary character, without using knowledge of their Fourier coefficients. From this we construct a basis of simultaneous eigenforms…
A theorem of Gekeler compares the number of non-isomorphic automorphic representations associated with the space of cusp forms of weight $k$ on $\Gamma_0(N)$ to a simpler function of $k$ and $N$, showing that the two are equal whenever $N$…
In this short technical note, we extend a recently published result [Liao2017] on the Perron root (or the spectral radius) of non-negative matrices to real-valued non-negative kernels on an arbitrary measurable space $(\mathrm{E},…
We study the rational torsion subgroup of the modular Jacobian $J_0(N)$ for $N$ a square-free integer. We give a new proof of a result of Ohta on a generalization of Ogg's conjecture: for a prime number $p \nmid 6N$, the $p$-primary part of…
The aim of these notes is to study some of the structural aspects of the ring of arithmetical functions. We prove that this ring is neither Noetherian nor Artinian. Furthermore, we construct various types of prime ideals. We also give an…
