Using the modularity technique of Wiles, we study the Hecke algebra of weight 2 and prime level N localized at the Eisenstein primes. On the way, we recover some results of Mazur ("Modular Curves and the Eisenstein Ideal") from a…
Let $N$ and $p$ be primes such that $p$ divides the numerator of $\frac{N-1}{12}$. In this paper, we study the rank $g_p$ of the completion of the Hecke algebra acting on cuspidal modular forms of weight $2$ and level $\Gamma_0(N)$ at the…
We use pseudodeformation theory to study Mazur's Eisenstein ideal. Given prime numbers $N$ and $p>3$, we study the Eisenstein part of the $p$-adic Hecke algebra for $\Gamma_0(N)$. We compute the rank of this Hecke algebra (and, more…
Let $p$ and $\ell$ be primes such that $p > 3$ and $p \mid \ell-1$ and $k$ be an even integer. We use deformation theory of pseudo-representations to study the completion of the Hecke algebra acting on the space of cuspidal modular forms of…
We use deformation theory to study the big Hecke algebra acting on mod-2 modular forms of prime level $N$ and all weights, especially its local component at the trivial representation. For $N = 3, 5$, we prove that the maximal reduced…
Let $\Delta= \sum_{m=0}^\infty q^{(2m+1)^2} \in \mathbb{F}_2[[q]]$ be the reduction mod 2 of the $\Delta$ series. A modular form $f$ modulo $2$ of level 1 is a polynomial in $\Delta$. If $p$ is an odd prime, then the Hecke operator $T_p$…
We study the Eisenstein ideal for modular forms of even weight $k>2$ and prime level $N$. We pay special attention to the phenomenon of $\mathit{extra \ reducibility}$: the Eisenstein ideal is strictly larger than the ideal cutting out…
Continuing the work of \cite{7} and \cite{8}, we derive an analogue of the classical "$k/12$-formula" for Drinfeld modular forms of rank $r \geq 2$. Here the vanishing order $\nu_{\omega}(f)$ of one modular form at some point $\omega$ of…
We propose an algebraic definition of the space of l-new mod-p modular forms for Gamma0(Nl) in the case that l is prime to N, which naturally generalizes to a notion of newforms modulo p in squarefree level. We use this notion of newforms…
Two integral structures on the Q-vector space of modular forms of weight two on X_0(N) are compared at primes p exactly dividing N. When p=2 and N is divisible by a prime that is 3 mod 4, this comparison leads to an algorithm for computing…
The nilpotence order of the mod 2 Hecke operators. Let $\Delta=\sum_{m=0}^\infty q^{(2m+1)^2} \in F_2[[q]]$ be the reduction mod 2 of the $\Delta$ series. A modular form f modulo 2 of level 1 is a polynomial in $\Delta$. If p is an odd…
We study the index of nilpotency relative to certain Hecke operators in spaces of modular forms with integer weight and level $N$ with integer coefficients modulo primes $p$ for $(p, N) \in \{(3, 1), (5, 1), (7, 1), (3, 4)\}$. In these…
Let $\ell \geq 5$ be a prime and let $N$ be a square-free integer prime to $\ell$. For each prime $p$ dividing $N$, let $a_p$ be either $1$ or $-1$. We give sufficient criteria for the existence of a newform $f$ of weight 2 for…
Let $N$ and $p$ be prime numbers with $p \geq 5$ such that $p || (N + 1)$. In a previous paper, we showed that there is a cuspform $f$ of weight 2 and level $\Gamma_0(N^2)$ whose $\ell$-th Fourier coefficient is congruent to $\ell + 1$…
We construct Stickelberger elements for Hilbert modular cusp forms of parallel weight 2 and use recent results of Dasgupta and Spiess to bound their order of vanishing from below. As a special case the vanishing part of Mazur and Tate's…
Let $F$ be the element $\sum_{n\ \mathit{odd},\ n>0}x^{n^{2}}$ of $Z/2[[x]]$. Set $G=F(x^{5})$, $D=F(x)+F(x^{25})$. For $k>0$, $(k,10)=1$, define $D_{k}$ as follows. $D_{1}=D$, $D_{3}=D^{8}/G$, $D_{7}=D^{2}G$, $D_{9}=D^{4}G$; furthermore…
We study p-divisibility of discriminants of Hecke algebras associated to spaces of cusp forms of prime level. We make a precise conjecture about the indexes of Hecke algebras in their normalisation which implies (if true) the conjecture…
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…
We study congruences for Eisenstein series on $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ modulo $p^2$, where $p \geq 5$ is prime. It is classically known that all Eisenstein series of weight at least $4$ are determined modulo $p^2$ by those of weight at…
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…
