Motivated by weighted partition of $n$ that vanish if and only if $n$ is a prime, Craig, van Ittersum, and Ono conjecture a classification of quasimodular forms which detect primes in the sense that the $n$-th Fourier coefficient vanishes…

We study the signs of the Fourier coefficients of a newform. Let $f$ be a normalized newform of weight $k$ for $\Gamma_0(N)$. Let $a_f(n)$ be the $n$th Fourier coefficient of $f$. For any fixed positive integer $m$, we study the…

The Katz-Sarnak Density Conjecture states that zeros of families of $L$-functions are well-modeled by eigenvalues of random matrix ensembles. For suitably restricted test functions, this correspondence yields upper bounds for the families'…

We count the number of critical points of a modular form with real Fourier coefficients in a $\gamma$-translate of the standard fundamental domain $\mathcal{F}$ (with $\gamma\in \mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$). Whereas by the valence formula…

We show that signs of Fourier coefficients, on certain sub-families, determine the half-integral weight cuspidal eigenform uniquely, up to a positive constant. We also study sign change results for the product of the Fourier coefficients of…

Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}$ of conductor $N$. We obtain an explicit formula, as a product of local terms, for the ramification index at each cusp of a modular parametrization of $E$ by $X_0(N)$. Our formula shows that the…

We give conditions under which a self-dual holomorphic cusp form is determined up to scalar multiplication by the signs of its Fourier coefficients.

We study canonical bases for spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms of level 4 and weights in $\mathbb{Z}+\frac{1}{2}$ and show that almost all modular forms in these bases have the property that many of their zeros in a fundamental…

For each prime $\ell$, let $|\cdot|_\ell$ be an extension to $\bar \Q$ of the usual $\ell$-adic absolute value on $\Q$. Suppose $g(z) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty c(n)q^n \in M_{k+\half}(N)$ is an eigenform whose Fourier coefficients are algebraic…

Let $\pi$ be an irreducible cuspidal automorphic representation of $\text{GL}_n(\mathbb A_\mathbb Q)$ with associated $L$-function $L(s, \pi)$. We study the behaviour of the partial Euler product of $L(s, \pi)$ at the center of the critical…

In this article, we are interested in modular forms with non-vanishing central critical values and linear independence of Fourier coefficients of modular forms. The main ingredient is a generalization of a theorem due to VanderKam to…

Classical modular forms of small weight and low level are likely to have a negative second Fourier coefficient. Similarly, the labeling scheme for elliptic curves tends to give smaller labels to the higher-rank curves. These observations…

We study the zeros of cusp forms of large weight for the modular group, which have a very large order of vanishing at infinity, so that they have a fixed number D of finite zeros in the fundamental domain. We show that for large weight the…

In this paper we discuss the generalizations of the concept of Chebyshev's bias from two perspectives. First we give a general framework for the study of prime number races and Chebyshev's bias attached to general $L$-functions satisfying…

We consider sign changes of Fourier coefficients of Hecke-Maass cusp forms for the group $\mathrm{SL}_3(\mathbb Z)$. When the underlying form is self-dual, we show that there are $\gg_\varepsilon X^{5/6-\varepsilon}$ sign changes among the…

We prove a non-vanishing result of modular L-values with quadratic twists, where the quadratic discriminants are in a short interval. Using this fact and Waldspurger's theorem, we improve the results of Balog-Ono[The chebotarev density…

We give explicit expressions for the Fourier coefficients of Eisenstein series twisted by Dirichlet characters and modular symbols on $\Gamma_0(N)$ in the case where $N$ is prime and equal to the conductor of the Dirichlet character. We…

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…

We develop vanishing and cuspidality criteria for quaternionic modular forms on $G=\mathrm{Spin}(4,4)$ using a theory of scalar Fourier coefficients. By analyzing a Fourier-Jacobi expansion for these forms, we prove that a level one…

We prove that every odd semisimple reducible (2-dimensional) mod l Galois representation arises from a cuspidal eigenform. In addition, we investigate the possible different types (level, weight, character) of such a modular form. When the…
