AbstractWe generalise the classical Bombieri–Vinogradov theorem for short intervals to a non-abelian setting. This leads to variants of the prime number theorem for short intervals where the primes lie in arithmetic progressions that are “twisted” by a splitting condition in a Galois extension of number fields. Using this result in conjunction with the recent work of Maynard, we prove that rational primes with a given splitting condition in a Galois extensionL/$\mathbb{Q}$exhibit bounded gaps in short intervals. We explore several arithmetic applications related to questions of Serre regarding the non-vanishing Fourier coefficients of cuspidal modular forms. One such application is that for a given modularL-functionL(s, f), the fundamental discriminantsdfor which thed-quadratic twist ofL(s, f) has a non-vanishing central critical value exhibit bounded gaps in short intervals.

In this paper, we give some results on simultaneous non-vanishing and simultaneous sign-changes for the Fourier coefficients of two modular forms. More precisely, given two modular forms [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with Fourier coefficients [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] respectively, we consider the following questions: existence of infinitely many primes [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text]; simultaneous non-vanishing in the short intervals and in arithmetic progressions; simultaneous sign changes in short intervals.

In 1975, Cohen constructed a kind of one-variable modular forms of half-integral weight, say [Formula: see text], whose [Formula: see text]th Fourier coefficient only occurs when [Formula: see text] is congruent to 0 or 1 modulo 4. The space of modular forms whose Fourier coefficients have the above property is called Kohnen plus space, initially introduced by Kohnen in 1980. Recently, Hiraga and Ikeda generalized the plus space to the spaces for half-integral weight Hilbert modular forms with respect to general totally real number fields. The [Formula: see text]th Fourier coefficients [Formula: see text] of a Hilbert modular form of parallel weight [Formula: see text] lying in the generalized Kohnen plus space does not vanish only if [Formula: see text] is congruent to a square modulo 4. In this paper, we use an adelic way to construct Eisenstein series of parallel half-integral weight belonging to the generalized Kohnen plus spaces and give an explicit form for their Fourier coefficients. These series give a generalization of the one introduced by Cohen. Moreover, we show that the Kohnen plus space is generated by the cusp forms and the Eisenstein series we constructed as a vector space over [Formula: see text].

AbstractFor a given cusp form $\phi $ of even integral weight satisfying certain hypotheses, Waldspurger’s theorem relates the critical value of the $\mathrm{L} $-function of the $n\mathrm{th} $ quadratic twist of $\phi $ to the $n\mathrm{th} $ coefficient of a certain modular form of half-integral weight. Waldspurger’s recipes for these modular forms of half-integral weight are far from being explicit. In particular, they are expressed in the language of automorphic representations and Hecke characters. We translate these recipes into congruence conditions involving easily computable values of Dirichlet characters. We illustrate the practicality of our ‘simplified Waldspurger’ by giving several examples.

Modular Invariants

We extend results of Bringmann and Ono that relate certain generalized traces of Maass–Poincaré series to Fourier coefficients of modular forms of half-integral weight. By specializing to cases in which these traces are usual traces of algebraic numbers, we generalize results of Zagier describing arithmetic traces associated to modular forms. We define correspondences [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. We show that if f is a modular form of non-positive weight 2 - 2 λ and odd level N, holomorphic away from the cusp at infinity, then the traces of values at Heegner points of a certain iterated non-holomorphic derivative of f are equal to Fourier coefficients of the half-integral weight modular forms [Formula: see text].

Abstract After the significant work of Zagier on the traces of singular moduli, Jeon, Kang and Kim showed that the Galois traces of real-valued class invariants given in terms of the singular values of the classical Weber functions can be identified with the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight 3/2 on the congruence subgroups of higher genus by using the Bruinier-Funke modular traces. Extending their work, we construct real-valued class invariants by using the singular values of the generalized Weber functions of level 5 and prove that their Galois traces are Fourier coefficients of a harmonic weak Maass form of weight 3/2 by using Shimura’s reciprocity law.

We evaluate [Formula: see text] for a certain family of integer sequences, which include the Fourier coefficients of some modular forms. In particular, we compute [Formula: see text] for all positive integers n for Ramanujan's τ-function. As a consequence, we obtain many congruences — for instance that τ(1000m) is always divisible by 64000. We also determine, for a given prime number p, the set of n for which τ(pn-1) is divisible by n. Further, we give a description of the set {n ∈ ℕ : n divides τ(n)}. We also survey methods for computing τ(n). Finally, we find the least n for which τ(n) is prime, complementing a result of D. H. Lehmer, who found the least n for which |τ(n)| is prime.
