Let $M_k^!(Gamma_0^+(3))$ be the space of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight $k$ for the Fricke group of level $3$. We introduce a natural basis for $M_k^!(Gamma_0^+(3))$ and prove that for almost all basis elements, all of their zeros in a fundamental domain lie on the circle centered at 0 with radius $frac{1}{sqrt{3}}$.
In this paper, we prove some divisibility results for the Fourier coefficients of reduced modular forms of sign vectors. More precisely, we generalize a divisibility result of Siegel on constant terms when the weight is non-positive, which is related to the weight of Borcherds lifts when the weight is zero. By considering Hecke operators for the spaces of weakly holomorphic modular forms with sign vectors, and obtain divisibility results in an orthogonal direction on reduced modular forms.
Let $lambda$ be an integer, and $f(z)=sum_{ngg-infty} a(n)q^n$ be a weakly holomorphic modular form of weight $lambda+frac 12$ on $Gamma_0(4)$ with integral coefficients. Let $ellgeq 5$ be a prime. Assume that the constant term $a(0)$ is not zero modulo $ell$. Further, assume that, for some positive integer $m$, the Fourier expansion of $(f|U_{ell^m})(z) = sum_{n=0}^infty b(n)q^n$ has the form [ (f|U_{ell^m})(z) equiv b(0) + sum_{i=1}^{t}sum_{n=1}^{infty} b(d_i n^2) q^{d_i n^2} pmod{ell}, ] where $d_1, ldots, d_t$ are square-free positive integers, and the operator $U_ell$ on formal power series is defined by [ left( sum_{n=0}^infty a(n)q^n right) bigg| U_ell = sum_{n=0}^infty a(ell n)q^n. ] Then, $lambda equiv 0 pmod{frac{ell-1}{2}}$. Moreover, if $tilde{f}$ denotes the coefficient-wise reduction of $f$ modulo $ell$, then we have [ biggl{ lim_{m rightarrow infty} tilde{f}|U_{ell^{2m}}, lim_{m rightarrow infty} tilde{f}|U_{ell^{2m+1}} biggr} = biggl{ a(0)theta(z), a(0)theta^ell(z) in mathbb{F}_{ell}[[q]] biggr}, ] where $theta(z)$ is the Jacobi theta function defined by $theta(z) = sum_{ninmathbb{Z}} q^{n^2}$. By using this result, we obtain the distribution of the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic modular forms in congruence classes. This applies to the congruence properties for traces of singular moduli.
In this note, we generalize the isomorphisms to the case when the discriminant form is not necessarily induced from real quadratic fields. In particular, this general setting includes all the subspaces with epsilon-conditions, only two spacial cases of which were treated before. With this established, we shall prove the Zagier duality for canonical bases. Finally, we raise a question on the integrality of the Fourier coefficients of these bases elements, or equivalently we concern the existence of a Miller-like basis for vector valued modular forms.
Serre obtained the p-adic limit of the integral Fourier coefficient of modular forms on $SL_2(mathbb{Z})$ for $p=2,3,5,7$. In this paper, we extend the result of Serre to weakly holomorphic modular forms of half integral weight on $Gamma_{0}(4N)$ for
$N=1,2,4$. A proof is based on linear relations among Fourier coefficients of modular forms of half integral weight. As applications we obtain congruences of Borcherds exponents, congruences of quotient of Eisentein series and congruences of values of $L$-functions at a certain point are also studied. Furthermore, the congruences of the Fourier coefficients of Siegel modular forms on Maass Space are obtained using Ikeda lifting.
A variant of Brauers induction method is developed. It is shown that quartic p-adic forms with at least 9127 variables have non-trivial zeros, for every p. For odd p considerably fewer variables are needed. There are also subsidiary new results concerning quintic forms, and systems of forms.
