Homework Statement
Consider the action of ##T_2## acting on ##M_k(\Gamma_{0}(N)) ##, and show that ##\theta^4(n)+16F ## and ##F(t)## are both eigenfunctions.
Functions are given by:
Homework Equations
For the Hecke Operators ##T_p## acting on ##M_k(\Gamma_{0}(N)) ##, the Hecke conguence subgroup of ##M_k (SL_2(Z)) ## , the coefficients are given as the same as acting on (SL_2(Z)) if ##p## does not divide the level ##N## ##b_n=a_{pn}+p^{k-1}a_{n/p} ## but ##b_n=a_{pn}## if ##p## does divide ##N##.
Where ## T_p f(t) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=0}a_nq^n ## and ## f(t) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n=0} a_n q^n ##
For this question ##2## does divide ##4## and so we are using: ##b_n=a_{2n}##
The Attempt at a Solution
So we have ##b_0 = a_0 ##
## b_1= a_2##
##b_2=a_4##
##b_4=a_6##
solution here:
I agree that ## T_2 \theta^4(t)= \theta^4(t)+16F(t)## from ##b_0 ## and ##b_1## since ##b_0=a_0 ## is given by ##a_0 ## of ##\theta^4(t) ## since ##f(t)## only has odd coefficients. similarly ##b_1=a_2##= the first coeffieicnt of ##\theta^4(t)## + 16 * the first coefficient of ##F(t) ##.
However can not see how this can be true for any even ##n >2 ##. (Since ##F(t)## has only odd ##n## contributions.
Let me use the result that the ##r_4(n)## are given by ## 8 \Omega_1(n)## for ##n## odd and ##24 \sigma_1(n_0) ## for ##n_0## the odd divisors of ##n##. So I get ##r_4(4)=24(3+1)=96=a_4## and so since ## T_2 \theta^4(t)= \theta^4(t)+16F(t) => b_2 = a_4 ##. But now since ##F(t)## only has odd coefficients, this implies that ##a_2 = b_2=a_4 ## which of course it isn't.
Am i doing something really stupid?
Many thanks
