Congruence subgroups of ) of genus less than or equal to 24.
Let be a positive integer divisible by 4, a prime, an elliptic cuspidal eigenform (ordinary at ) of weight , level 4 and non-trivial character. In this paper we provide evidence for the Bloch-Kato conjecture for the motives and , where is the motif attached to . More precisely, we prove that under certain conditions the -adic valuation of the algebraic part of the symmetric square -function of evaluated at provides a lower bound for the -adic valuation of the order of the Pontryagin...
In this article we study the behavior of inertia groups for modular Galois mod representations and in some cases we give a generalization of Ribet’s lowering the level result (cf. [9]).
Vector-valued Siegel modular forms may be found in certain cohomology groups with coefficients lying in an irreducible representation of the symplectic group. Using functoriality in the coefficients, we show that the ordinary components of the cohomology are independent of the weight parameter. The meaning of ordinary depends on a choice of parabolic subgroup of , giving a particular direction in the change of weight. Our results complement those of Taylor and Tilouine-Urban for the two other possible...
We exploit the properties of Legendre polynomials defined by the contour integral where the contour encloses the origin and is traversed in the counterclockwise direction, to obtain congruences of certain sums of central binomial coefficients. More explicitly, by comparing various expressions of the values of Legendre polynomials, it can be proved that for any positive integer , a prime and , we have , depending on the value of .
We systematically investigate the expressions and congruences for both a one-parameter family as well as a two-parameter family of sequences.
