The conjugate of a newform #

The conjugate form f_ρ(τ) = conj (f (-conj τ)) has the complex-conjugate q-expansion coefficients, and carries S_k(N, χ) to S_k(N, χ⁻¹) intertwining the Hecke operators (TauCeti/NumberTheory/ModularForms/Conjugate.lean). This file shows that it also preserves the old and the new subspaces of S_k(Γ₁(N)): it commutes with the level-raising operators that span the old subspace, and it conjugates the Petersson product, so it preserves the orthogonal complement. Consequently the conjugate of a newform f of nebentypus χ is again a newform, of nebentypus χ⁻¹, with the conjugate eigenvalues: the conjugate newform f_ρ of Miyake, §4.6. It is the form to which the Fricke involution sends f, up to a scalar.

For trivial nebentypus the good Hecke eigenvalues of a newform are real, so by strong multiplicity one the conjugate newform is the newform itself.

Conjugation preserves the old subspace: the conjugate of a level-raise V_d g from a proper divisor level is the level-raise V_d (g_ρ).

Conjugation preserves the new subspace: if f is a new cusp form of level N, so is its conjugate f_ρ.

The conjugate newform f_ρ(τ) = conj (f (-conj τ)) of a newform f of nebentypus χ: a newform of nebentypus χ⁻¹ whose eigenvalues and q-expansion coefficients are the complex conjugates of those of f.
