Abstract

Let XX be a Shimura curve of genus zero. In this paper, we first characterize the spaces of automorphic forms on XX in terms of Schwarzian differential equations. We then devise a method to compute Hecke operators on these spaces. An interesting by-product of our analysis is the evaluation 2F1(1/24,7/24,5/6,210335114)=611556_2F_1(1/24,7/24,5/6, -\frac{2^{10}\cdot3^3\cdot5}{11^4})=\sqrt6 \sqrt[6]{\frac{11}{5^5}} and other similar identities.
