TauCeti.NumberTheory.ModularForms.SturmBound

The Sturm bound for finite-index subgroups of SL(2, โ„ค) #

For ๐’ข โ‰ค GL(2, โ„) of finite relative index in ๐’ฎโ„’ with discrete strict periods and f : ModularForm ๐’ข k, if the q-expansion of f at the cusp โˆž (with cusp width ๐’ข.strictWidthInfty) has order strictly greater than k ยท [๐’ฎโ„’ : ๐’ข โŠ“ ๐’ฎโ„’] / 12, then f = 0.

The proof lifts the level-one bound ModularForm.sturm_bound_levelOne through the norm map: the norm of f vanishes exactly when f does, and by the decomposition TauCeti.ModularForm.qExpansion_one_norm_order_eq sufficient vanishing of f at โˆž propagates to the norm.

Sturm bound for subgroups of GL(2, โ„) of finite relative index in SL(2, โ„ค) with discrete strict periods. A modular form of weight k whose q-expansion at the cusp โˆž has order strictly greater than k ยท [๐’ฎโ„’ : ๐’ข โŠ“ ๐’ฎโ„’] / 12 is identically zero.

Classical Sturm bound for finite-index subgroups of SL(2, โ„ค).

Modular forms agreeing up to the Sturm bound are equal: two weight-k forms whose q-expansions at โˆž agree in every coefficient up to k ยท [๐’ฎโ„’ : ๐’ข โŠ“ ๐’ฎโ„’] / 12 coincide.

Finite-dimensionality of modular forms. As a corollary of the Sturm bound, the space ModularForm ๐’ข k is finite-dimensional over โ„‚ for any subgroup ๐’ข โ‰ค GL(2, โ„) of finite relative index in ๐’ฎโ„’ with determinant-one elements and discrete strict periods.

Finite-dimensionality of cusp forms. A cusp form is a modular form, injectively, so this is TauCeti.ModularForm.finiteDimensional_modularForm_finiteIndex transported along CuspForm.toModularFormโ‚—, under exactly the same hypotheses.

It is stated here rather than at its use sites because cusp-form finite-dimensionality is a standing hypothesis of the old/new theory, not a fact local to any one argument: before this, the two proofs in TauCeti/NumberTheory/ModularForms/Petersson/Orthogonal.lean that need it each built it inline.
