Generating weights for the Weil representation attached to an even order cyclic quadratic module

Number Theory 2017-11-27 v2

Abstract

We develop geometric methods to study the generating weights of free modules of vector valued modular forms of half-integral weight, taking values in a complex representation of the metaplectic group. We then compute the generating weights for modular forms taking values in the Weil representation attached to cyclic quadratic modules of order 2p^r, where p is a prime greater than three. We also show that the generating weights approach a simple limiting distribution as p grows, or as r grows and p remains fixed.
