J.P. Serre showed that for any integer $m,~a(n)\equiv 0 \pmod m$ for almost all $n,$ where $a(n)$ is the $n^{\text{th}}$ Fourier coefficient of any modular form with rational coefficients. In this article, we consider a certain class of…
Given an abelian variety $A$ of dimension $g$ over a number field $K$, and a prime $\ell$, the $\ell^n$-torsion points of $A$ give rise to a representation $\rho_{A, \ell^n} : \gal(\bar{K} / K) \to \gl_{2g}(\zz/\ell^n\zz)$. In particular,…
The Lehmer conjecture states that the non-constant Fourier coefficients of the 24th power of the Dedekind eta function are non-zero. In a recent preprint, Neuhauser and the first author exploited an easily accessible tool from algebraic…
The main purpose of this paper is to determine all normalized extremal quasimodular forms of depth 1 whose Fourier coefficients are integers. By changing the local parameter at infinity from $q=e^{2\pi i \tau}$ to the reciprocal of the…
Recently, Bruinier and Ono classified cusp forms $f(z) := \sum_{n=0}^{\infty} a_f(n)q ^n \in S_{\lambda+1/2}(\Gamma_0(N),\chi)\cap \mathbb{Z}[[q]]$ that does not satisfy a certain distribution property for modulo odd primes $p$. In this…
Given $k, \ell \in {\bf N}^+$, let $x_{i,j}$ be, for $1 \le i \le k$ and $0 \le j \le \ell$, some fixed integers, and define, for every $n \in {\bf N}^+$, $s_n := \sum_{i=1}^k \prod_{j=0}^\ell x_{i,j}^{n^j}$. We prove that the following are…
Let $\bf f$ be a primitive Hilbert cusp form of weight $k$ and level $\mathfrak{n}$ with Fourier coefficients $c_{\bf f}(\mathfrak{m})$. We prove a non-trivial upper bound for almost all Fourier coefficients $c_{\bf f}(\mathfrak{m})$ of…
When $a_n$ is the $n$'th coefficient of some holomorphic cusp form, we prove a variety of Omega results for the twisted sum $\sum_{n\le x}a_ne^{2\pi in\alpha}$ and discuss their applications to the Ramanujan $\tau$-function and sums of…
Let $g$ be a Hecke cusp form of half-integral weight, level $4$ and belonging to Kohnen's plus subspace. Let $c(n)$ denote the $n$th Fourier coefficient of $g$, normalized so that $c(n)$ is real for all $n \geq 1$. A theorem of Waldspurger…
A composite positive integer $n$ has the Lehmer property if $\phi(n)$ divides $n-1,$ where $\phi$ is an Euler totient function. In this note we shall prove that if $n$ has the Lehmer property, then $n\leq 2^{2^{K}}-2^{2^{K-1}}$, where $K$…
We consider the problem of efficiently computing isolated coefficients $c_n$ in the Fourier series of the elliptic modular function $j(\tau)$. We show that a hybrid numerical-modular method with complexity $n^{1+o(1)}$ is efficient in…
Let $N$ be a fixed positive integer, and let $f\in S_k(N)$ be a primitive cusp form given by the Fourier expansion $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty} \lambda_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}}e(nz)$. We consider the partial sum $S(x,f)=\sum_{n\leq…
We prove that the ratio of the Newman sum over numbers multiple of a fixed integer which is not multiple of 3 and the Newman sum over numbers multiple of a fixed integer divisible by 3 is o(1) when the upper limit of summing tends to…
Suppose $j_N(\tau)$ and $j_N^{*}(\tau)$ are the Hauptmoduln of the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_0(N)$ and the Fricke group $\Gamma^{*}_0(N)$, respectively. In [7], the authors predicted that, like Klein's $j$-function, the Fourier…
Let $N$ and $p$ be prime numbers with $p \geq 5$ such that $p || (N + 1)$. In a previous paper, we showed that there is a cuspform $f$ of weight 2 and level $\Gamma_0(N^2)$ whose $\ell$-th Fourier coefficient is congruent to $\ell + 1$…
From a result of Waldspurger, it is known that the normalized Fourier coefficients $a(m)$ of a half-integral weight holomorphic cusp eigenform $\f$ are, up to a finite set of factors, one of $\pm \sqrt{L(1/2, f, \chi_m)}$ when $m$ is…

Understanding the asymptotic behavior of the number of Galois orbits of newforms in $S_k(\Gamma_0(N), \Psi)$ as the weight increases is a central problem motivated by Maeda's conjecture. For trivial nebentypus, prior work of Dieulefait,…
