Let $f$ be a normalized Hecke eigenform with rational integer Fourier coefficients. It is an interesting question to know how often an integer $n$ has a factor common with the $n$-th Fourier coefficient of $f$. The second author…

In this article, we derive lower bounds for the number of distinct prime divisors of families of non-zero Fourier coefficients of non-CM primitive cusp forms and more generally of non-CM primitive Hilbert cusp forms. In particular, for the…

Let $F$ (over $\mathbb{Q}$) be a totally real number field of narrow class number $1$. We generalize a result of Kohnen on the determination of half integral weight modular forms by their Fourier coefficients supported on squarefree…

In this paper, it is proved that every sufficiently large even integer can be represented as the sum of two squares of primes, two cubes of primes, two biquadrates of primes and 16 powers of 2. Furthermore, there are at least 5.313% odd…

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…

Let f traverse a sequence of classical holomorphic newforms of fixed weight and increasing squarefree level q tending to infinity. We prove that the pushforward of the mass of f to the modular curve of level 1 equidistributes with respect…

Extending the approach of Iwaniec and Duke, we present strong uniform bounds for Fourier coefficients of half-integral weight cusp forms of level $N$. As an application, we consider a Waring-type problem with sums of mixed powers.

We prove that given any $\epsilon > 0$ and a primitive adelic Hilbert cusp form $f$ of weight $k=(k_1,k_2,...,k_n) \in (2 \mathbb{Z})^n$ and full level, there exists an integral ideal $\mathfrak{m}$ with $N(\mathfrak{m}) \ll_{\epsilon}…

Congruences of Fourier coefficients of modular forms have long been an object of central study. By comparison, the arithmetic of other expansions of modular forms, in particular Taylor expansions around points in the upper-half plane, has…

Suppose that $\ell \geq 5$ is prime. For a positive integer $N$ with $4 \mid N$, previous works studied properties of half-integral weight modular forms on $\Gamma_0(N)$ which are supported on finitely many square classes modulo $\ell$, in…

We consider natural variants of Lehmer's unresolved conjecture that Ramanujan's tau-function never vanishes. Namely, for $n>1$ we prove that $$\tau(n)\not \in \{\pm 1, \pm 3, \pm 5, \pm 7, \pm 691\}.$$ This result is an example of general…

For a half-integral weight modular form $f = \sum_{n=1}^{\infty} a_f(n)n^{\frac{k-1}{2}} q^n$ of weight $k = l +\frac{1}{2}$ on $\Gamma_0(4)$ such that $a_f(n)$ ($n$ $\in$ $\mathbb{N}$) are real, we prove for a fixed suitable natural number…

Let $f=\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}a(n)q^{n}\in S_{k+1/2}(N,\chi_{0})$ be a non-zero cuspidal Hecke eigenform of weight $k+\frac{1}{2}$ and the trivial nebentypus $\chi_{0}$ where the Fourier coefficients $a(n)$ are real. Bruinier and Kohnen…

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 $f$ be a cuspform of integral half-weight $k+1/2$, whose Fourier coefficients $a(n)$ not necessarily real. We verify partially an extension of a conjecture of Bruinier and Kohnen on the equi-distribution of the signs of $a(n)$ (when are…

In this paper, we investigate the average behavior of the $n^{th}$ normalized Fourier coefficients of the $j^{th}$ ($j \geq 2$ be any fixed integer) symmetric power $L$-function (i.e., $L(s,sym^{j}f)$), attached to a primitive holomorphic…

Let f be a newform of weight at least 2 and squarefree level with Fourier coefficients in a number field K. We give explicit bounds, depending on congruences of f with other newforms, on the set of primes lambda of K for which the…

We study divisibility properties of certain sums and alternating sums involving binomial coefficients and powers of integers. For example, we prove that for all positive integers $n_1,..., n_m$, $n_{m+1}=n_1$, and any nonnegative integer…

Let $f(z)=\sum_{n=1}^\infty a(n)q^n\in S^{\text{new}}_ k (\Gamma_0(N))$ be a newform with squarefree level $N$ that does not have complex multiplication. For a prime $p$, define $\theta_p\in[0,\pi]$ to be the angle for which $a(p)=2p^{( k…

Let f be a newform of weight at least 3 with Fourier coefficients in a number field K. We show that the universal deformation ring of the mod lambda Galois representation associated to f is unobstructed, and thus isomorphic to a power…
