In this paper, we show that an action on the set of elliptic curves with j= 1728 preserves a certain kind of symmetry on the local root number of Hecke characters attached to such elliptic curves. As a consequence, we give results on the distribution of the root numbers and their average of the aforementioned Hecke characters.
We investigate non-vanishing properties of $L(f,s)$ on the real line, when $f$ is a Hecke eigenform of half-integral weight $k+{1\over 2}$ on $Γ_0(4).$
We prove that the "naive" convolution Dirichlet series D_2(s) attached to a degree 2 Siegel Hecke cusp form F, has a pole at s=1. As an application, we write down the asymptotic formula for the partial sums of the squares of the eigenvalues of $F$ with an explicit error term. Further, as a corollary, we are able to show that the abscissa of absolute convergence of the (normalized) spinor zeta function attached to F is s = 1.
We construct an Euler system of generalized Heegner cycles to bound the Selmer group associated to a modular form and an algebraic Hecke character. The main argument is based on Kolyvagin's machinery explained by Gross while the key object of the Euler system, the generalized Heegner cycles, were first considered by Bertolini, Darmon and Prasanna.
This paper answers a question of Gross and others, by exhibiting specific examples of Hecke algebras where mod 2 multiplicity one fails for some modular forms, and the associated Hecke algebras are not Gorenstein. It shows that the methods of Wiles, Gross, Edixhoven, Buzzard, Mazur and others have an upper bound to their applicability.
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 $D_{k+10}=G^{2}D_{k}$. Using modular forms of level $Γ_{0}(5)$ we show that the space $W$ spanned by the $D_{k}$ is stabilized by the formal Hecke operators $T_{p}:Z/2[[x]]\rightarrow Z/2[[x]]$, $p\ne 2$ or $5$. And we determine the structure of the (completed) shallow Hecke algebra attached to $W$. This algebra proves to be a power series ring in $T_{3}$ and …
Let $D$ in $Z/2[[x]]$ be $\sum x^{n^{2}}$, $n>0$ and prime to $6$. Let $W$ be spanned by the $D^{k}$, $k>0$ and prime to $6$. Then the formal Hecke operators $T_{p}$, $p>3$, stabilize $W$, and it can be shown that they act locally nilpotently. We show that the completion of the Hecke algebra generated by these $T_{p}$ acting on $W$, with respect to the maximal ideal generated by the $T_{p}$, is a power series ring in $T_{7}$ and $T_{13}$ with an element of square $0$ adjoined. This may be viewed as a level 3 analog of the level 1 results of Nicolas and Serre -- the Hecke stable space they stud…
We prove for L-function attached to an automorphic cusp form for the Hecke congruence group $Γ_0(D)$, which is also an eigenfunction of all the Hecke operators, that a positive proportion of its non-trivial zeros lie on the critical line. This result extends the work of J.L. Hafner of 1983 where the case of the full modular group is considered.
We consider the action of Hecke-type operators on Hilbert-Siegel theta series attached to lattices of even rank. We show that average Hilbert-Siegel theta series are eigenforms for these operators, and we explicitly compute the eigenvalues.
In 1992, Avner Ash and Mark McConnell presented computational evidence of a connection between three-dimensional Galois representations and certain arithmetic cohomology classes. For some examples they were unable to determine the attached representation. For several Hecke eigenclasses (including one for which Ash and McConnell did not find the Galois representation), we find a Galois representation which appears to be attached and show strong evidence for the uniqueness of this representation. The techniques that we use to find defining polynomials for the Galois representations include a tar…
We investigate the existence of large values of L-functions attached to Maass forms on the critical line with prescribed argument. The results obtained rely on the resonance method developed by Soundararajan and furthered by Hough.
In this article we report on extensive calculations concerning the Gorenstein defect for Hecke algebras of spaces of modular forms of prime weight p at maximal ideals of residue characteristic p such that the attached mod p Galois representation is unramified at p and the Frobenius at p acts by scalars. The results lead us to the ask the question whether the Gorenstein defect and the multplicity of the attached Galois representation are always equal to 2. We review the literature on the failure of the Gorenstein property and multiplicity one, discuss in some detail a very important practical i…
In this article we introduce Hecke operators on the differential algebra of geometric quasi-modular forms. As an application for each natural number $d$ we construct a vector field in six dimensions which determines uniquely the polynomial relations between the Eisenstein series of weight 2,4 and 6 and their transformation under multiplication of the argument by $d$, and in particular, it determines uniquely the modular curve of degree $d$ isogenies between elliptic curves.
We evaluate the action of Hecke operators on Siegel Eisenstein series of arbitrary degree, level and character. For square-free level, we simultaneously diagonalise the space with respect to all the Hecke operators, computing the eigenvalues explicitly, and obtain a multiplicity-one result. For arbitrary level, we simultaneously diagonalise the space with respect to the Hecke operators attached to primes not dividing the level, again computing the eigenvalues explicitly.
In this paper we outline the Hecke theory for Hermitian modular forms in the sense of Hel Braun for arbitrary class number of the attached imaginary-quadratic number field. The Hecke algebra turns out to be commutative. Its inert part has a structure analogous to the case of the Siegel modular group and coincides with the tensor product of its $p$-components for inert primes $p$. This leads to a characterization of the associated Siegel-Eisenstein series. The proof also involves Hecke theory for particular congruence subgroups.
Clozel and Labesse proved the base change fundamental lemma for spherical Hecke algebras attached to an unramified group over a p-adic field. This paper proves an analogous fundamental lemma for centers of parahoric Hecke algebras attached to the same class of groups. This provides an ingredient needed for the author's program to study Shimura varieties with parahoric level structure at p.
Consider elliptic curves $ E:\ y^{2} = x^{3} + D^{3} $ defined over the quadratic field $\ \Q(\sqrt{-3}) $. Hecke $ L-$series attached to $ E $ are studied, formulae for their values at $ s=1, $ and bound of 3-adic valuations of these values are given. These results are complementary to those in [Q] and [QZ], and are consistent with the predictions of the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer.
This is an expository article that concerns the various related notions of algebraic idele class characters, the Groessencharaktere of Hecke, and cohomological automorphic representations of GL(1), all under the general title of algebraic Hecke characters. The first part of the article systematically lays the foundations of algebraic Hecke characters. The only pre-requisites are: basic algebraic number theory, familiarity with the adelic language, and basic sheaf theory. Observations that play a crucial role in the arithmetic of automorphic L-functions are also discussed. The second part of th…
In this note we shall study the Witten multiple zeta function associated to the exceptional Lie algebra g_2. Our main result shows that its special values at nonnegative integers can always be expressed as rational linear combinations of the multi-polylogs evaluated at 12th roots of unity, except for two irregular cases.
Class polynomials attached to affine Hecke algebras were first introduced by X.~He in \cite{He1}. They play an important role in the study of affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties. Motivated by \cite{He2}, we compute the class polynomials attached to an affine Hecke algebra of type (twisted) $\widetilde{A}_2$. Using these class polynomials we prove a conjecture of Görtz-Haines-Kottwitz-Reuman for the general linear group, unitary group and division algebra of semisimple rank 2. Furthermore, we discuss some interesting patterns on affine Deligne-Lusztig varieties.
Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form of weight $k$ with respect to $SL_2(\mathbb{Z})$ which is a normalized Hecke eigenform, $L_f(s)$ the $L$-function attached to the form $f$. In this paper, we shall give the relation of the number of zeros of $L_f(s)$ and the derivatives of $L_f(s)$ using Berndt's method, and an estimate of zero-density of the derivatives of $L_f(s)$ based on Littlewood's method.
We bound Selmer groups attached to Grossencharacters of CM elliptic curves by the appropriate $L$-value. Our method is to use Kato's explicit reciprocity law and the Main Conjecture as proved by Rubin. These results are then used together with work of Han and fundamental results of Nekovar to bound the torsion in the image of the $p$-adic cycle class map for self products of CM elliptic curves. Our results are valid for Chow groups of arbitrary codimension for almost all $p$.
For the anticyclotomic p-adic Rankin--Selberg L-function attached to a fixed Hecke eigenform and an imaginary quadratic field we introduce the second p-adic variable by considering Hida families of Hecke eigenforms parametrized by the weight.
This paper is a continuation of the author's previous wotk. We supplement four results on a family of holomorphic Siegel cusp forms for $GSp_4/\mathbb{Q}$. First, we improve the result on Hecke fields. Namely, we prove that the degree of Hecke fields is unbounded on the subspace of genuine forms which do not come from functorial lift of smaller subgroups of $GSp_4$ under a conjecture in local-global compatibility and Arthur's classification for $GSp_4$. Second, we prove simultaneous vertical Sato-Tate theorem. Namely, we prove simultaneous equidistribution of Hecke eigenvalues at finitely many…
$L-$series attached to two classical families of elliptic curves with complex multiplications are studied over number fields, formulae for their special values at $s=1, $ bound of the values, and criterion of reaching the bound are given. Let $ E_1: y^{2}=x^{3}-D_1 x $ be elliptic curves over the Gaussian field $K=\Q(\sqrt{-1}), $ with $ D_1 =π_{1} ... π_{n} $ or $ D_1 =π_{1} ^{2}... π_{r} ^{2} π_{r+1} ... π_{n}$, where $π_{1}, ..., π_{n}$ are distinct primes in $K$. A formula for special values of Hecke $L-$series attached to such curves expressed by Weierstrass $\wp-$function are given; a lo…
We study the linear fractional transformations in the Hecke group $G(Φ)$ where $Φ$ is either root of $x^2 - x -1$ (the larger root being the "golden ratio" $ϕ= 2 \cos \frac π5$.) Let $g \in G(Φ)$ and let $z$ be a generic element of the upper half-plane. Exploiting the fact that $Φ^2 = Φ-1$, we find that $g(z)$ is a quotient of linear polynomials in $z$ such that the coefficients of $z^1$ and $z^0$ in the numerator and denominator of $g(z)$ appear themselves to be linear polynomials in $Φ$ with coefficients that are certain multiples of Fibonacci numbers. We make somewhat less detailed observat…
In this article we perform an extensive study of the spaces of automorphic forms for GL(2) of weight two and level N, for N an ideal in the ring of integers of the quartic CM field generated by the twelfth roots of unity. This study is conducted through the computation of the group cohomology of the congruence subgroup of upper triangular matrices modulo N, and the corresponding Hecke action which this space admits. Combining this Hecke data with the Faltings-Serre method for proving equivalence of Galois representations, we are able to provide the first known examples of modular elliptic curv…
In this article we study the equations $x^4+dy^2=z^p$ and $x^2+dy^6=z^p$ for positive square-free values of $d$. A Frey curve over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ is attached to each primitive solution, which happens to be a $\mathbb{Q}$-curve. Our main result is the construction of a Hecke character $χ$ satisfying that the Frey elliptic curve representation twisted by $χ$ extends to $\text{Gal}_\mathbb{Q}$, therefore (by Serre's conjectures) corresponds to a newform in $S_2(n,\varepsilon)$ for explicit values of $n$ and $\varepsilon$. Following some well known results and elimination techniques (toge…
We prove that for any m > 1 given any m-tuple of Hecke eigenforms $f_i$ of level 1 whose weights satisfy the usual regularity condition there is a self-dual cuspidal automorphic form $π$ of $\GL_{2^m}(\Q)$ corresponding to their tensor product, i.e., such that the system of Galois representations attached to $π$ agrees with the tensor product of the ones attached to the cuspforms $f_i$.
We define Dedekind sums attached to a totally real number field of class number one. We prove that they satisfy some reciprocity law. Then we relate them to special values of Hecke $L$-functions. We conclude that they are ruled by Stark's conjecture.
The rationality of the elliptic Gauss sum coefficient is shown. The following is a specific case of our argument. Let f(u)=sl((1-i)\varpi u), where sl() is the Gauss' lemniscatic sine and \varpi=2.62205... is the real period of the elliptic curve y^2=x^3-x, so that f(u) is an elliptic function relative to the period lattice Z[i]. Let πbe a primary prime of Z[i] such that norm(π)\equiv 13\mod 16. Let S be the quarter set mod πconsisting of quartic residues. Let us define G(π):=\sum_{ν\in S} f(ν/π) and \tildeπ:=\prod_{ν\in S} f(ν/π). The former G(π) is a typical example of elliptic Gauss sum; th…
We propose a formulation of the Equivariant Tamagawa Number Conjecture for modular motives with coefficients in universal deformation rings and Hecke algebras; something which seems to have been heretofore missing because the complexes of Galois cohomology required were not known to be perfect. We show that the fundamental line of this conjecture satisfies the expected compatibility property at geometric points (more precisely at the points satisfying the Weight-Monodromy conjecture) and is compatible with level-lowering and level-raising. Combining these properties with the methods of Euler a…
This paper proves that the $\mathbb{U}$-operator attached to a cocharacter is a right root of the corresponding Hecke polynomial. This result is an important ingredient in the proof of (i) the horizontal norm relations in the context of Gross--Gan--Prasad cycles and of (ii) the generalization of Eichler--Shimura relations.
Given a prime $p$ and cusp forms $f_1$ and $f_2$ on some $Γ_1(N)$ that are eigenforms outside $Np$ and have coefficients in the ring of integers of some number field $K$, we consider the problem of deciding whether $f_1$ and $f_2$ have the same eigenvalues mod ${\mathfrak p}^m$ (where ${\mathfrak p}$ is a fixed prime of $K$ over $p$) for Hecke operators $T_{\ell}$ at all primes $\ell\nmid Np$. When the weights of the forms are equal the problem is easily solved via an easy generalization of a theorem of Sturm. Thus, the main challenge in the analysis is the case where the forms have different …
A Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series is a Dirichlet series in several complex variables attached to a root system Phi. The number of variables equals the rank r of the root system, and the series satisfies a group of functional equations isomorphic to the Weyl group W of Phi. In this paper we construct a Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series over the rational function field using n-th order Gauss sums attached to the root system of type A_2. The basic technique is to construct a rational function in r variables invariant under a certain action of W, and use this to build a ``local factor'' of…
We show that semigroup C*-algebras attached to ax+b-semigroups over rings of integers determine number fields up to arithmetic equivalence, under the assumption that the number fields have the same number of roots of unity. For finite Galois extensions, this means that the semigroup C*-algebras are isomorphic if and only if the number fields are isomorphic.
We present a new framework for a broad class of affine Hecke algebra modules, and show that such modules arise in a number of settings involving representations of $p$-adic groups and $R$-matrices for quantum groups. Instances of such modules arise from (possibly non-unique) functionals on $p$-adic groups and their metaplectic covers, such as the Whittaker functionals. As a byproduct, we obtain new, algebraic proofs of a number of results concerning metaplectic Whittaker functions. These are thus expressed in terms of metaplectic versions of Demazure operators, which are built out of $R$-matri…
