Eigenvalue of Fricke involution on newforms of level 4 and of trivial character


Abstract in English

In this note, we consider the newforms of integral weight, level 4 and of trivial character, and prove that all of them are actually level 1 forms of some non-Dirichlet character. As a byproduct, we can prove that all of them are eigenfunctions of the Fricke involution with eigenvalue -1.
