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}…
Let $f$ be a primitive form of weight $2k+j-2$ for $SL_2(Z)$, and let $\mathfrak p$ be a prime ideal of the Hecke field of $f$. We denote by $SP_m(Z)$ the Siegel modular group of degree $m$. Suppose that $k \equiv 0 \mod 2, \ j \equiv 0…
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 prove a commutative algebra result which has consequences for congruences between automorphic forms modulo prime powers. If C denotes the congruence module for a fixed automorphic Hecke eigenform \pi_0 we prove an exact relation between…
We show that for $\gg K^2$ of the half-integral weight Hecke cusp forms in the Kohnen plus subspaces with weight bounded by a large parameter $K$, the number of "real" zeroes grows at the expected rate. A key technical step in the proof is…
We study the structure of the Eisenstein component of Hida's ordinary p-adic Hecke algebra attached to modular forms, in connection with the companion forms in the space of modular forms (mod p). We show that such an algebra is a Gorenstein…
Let $G$ be a reductive group over a non-archimedean local field $F$ of residue characteristic $p$. We prove that the Hecke algebras of $G(F)$ with coefficients in a ${\mathbb Z}_{\ell}$-algebra $R$ for $\ell$ not equal to $p$ are finitely…
In this paper, we obtain two analogues of the Sturm bound for modular forms in the function field setting. In the case of mixed characteristic, we prove that any harmonic cochain is uniquely determined by an explicit finite number of its…
In this paper, we study traces of Hecke operators on Drinfeld modular forms of level 1 in the case $A = \mathbb{F}_q[T]$. We deduce closed-form expressions for traces of Hecke operators corresponding to primes of degree at most 2 and…
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…
We develop an explicit theory of formal modular forms over arbitrary number fields $K$, as functions of modular points. We define modular points for $\Gamma_0({\mathfrak n})$ and $\Gamma_1({\mathfrak n})$, where the level ${\mathfrak n}$ is…
We describe the image of general families of two-dimensional representations over compact semi-local rings. Applying this description to the family carried by the universal Hecke algebra acting on the space of modular forms of level $N$…
A well-known observation of Serre and Tate is that the Hecke algebra acts locally nilpotently on modular forms mod 2 on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. We give an algorithm for calculating the degree of Hecke nilpotency for cusp forms, and we…
We introduce an alternate set of generators for the Hecka algebra, and give an explicit formula for the action of these operators on Fourier coefficients. With this, we compute the eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on average Siegel…
In this article we prove conditions under which a certain parabolic group cohomology space over a finite field F is a faithful module for the Hecke algebra of Katz modular forms over an algebraic closure of F. These results can e.g. be used…
Let $F $ be a totally real number field and $r=[F :\mathbb{Q}].$ Let $A_k(\mathfrak{N},\omega) $ be the space of holomorphic Hilbert cusp forms with respect to $K_1(\mathfrak{N})$, weight $k=(k_1,\,...\,,k_r)$ with $k_j>2,$ for all $j$ and…
Assuming the Riemann hypothesis for $L$-functions attached to primitive Dirichlet characters, modular cusp forms, and their tensor products and symmetric squares, we write down explicit finite sets of Hecke operators that span the Hecke…
We treat an unbalanced shifted convolution sum of Fourier coefficients of cusp forms. As a consequence, we obtain an upper bound for correlation of three Hecke eigenvalues of holomorphic cusp forms $\sum_{H\leq h\leq…
The Galois representations associated to weight $1$ newforms over $\bar{\mathbb{F}}_p$ are remarkable in that they are unramified at $p$, but the computation of weight $1$ modular forms has proven to be difficult. One complication in this…
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…
