Central $L$-values of newforms and local polynomials



Abstract: In this paper, we characterize the vanishing of twisted central L-values attached to newforms of square-free level in terms of so-called local polynomials and the action of finitely many Hecke operators thereon. Such polynomials are the ``local part of certain locally harmonic Maass forms constructed by Bringmann, Kane and Kohnen, and are explicitly computable. We provide numerical examples in weight 4 and levels 7, 15, 22, and the necessary code behind. Furthermore, we connect local polynomials to even period polynomials of newforms as well as to Rankin--Cohen brackets of an Eisenstein series and a theta function. Lastly, we generalize a result of Wong to link a natural additive constant inside these local polynomials to Fourier coefficients of Cohen--Eisenstein series.
