Fourier coefficients of level 1 Hecke eigenforms

Abstract: Lehmer's 1947 conjecture on whether au(n) vanishes is still unresolved. In this context, it is natural to consider variants of Lehmer's conjecture. We determine many integers that cannot be values of au(n). For example, among the odd numbers alpha such that |alpha|<99, we determine that au(n)

otin {-9, pm 15, pm 21, -25, -27, -33, pm 35, pm 45, pm 49, -55, pm 63, pm 77, -81, pm 91 }. Moreover, under GRH, we have that au(n)eq|alpha| and that We also consider the level 1 Hecke eigenforms in dimension 1 spaces of cusp forms. For example, for DeltaE4=sumn=1inftyau16(n)qn, we show that �egin{align*} au_{16}(n) otin &{pm ell: 1leq ell leq 99, ell ext{ is odd}, ell

eq 33,55,59,67,73,83,89,91} \ & quad quad quad quad quad cup {-33,-55,-59,-67,-89,-91}.end{align*} Furthermore, we implement congruences given by Swinnerton-Dyer to rule out additional large primes which divide numerators of specific Bernoulli numbers. To obtain these results, we make use of the theory of Lucas sequences, methods for solving high degree Thue equations, Barros' algorithm for solving hyperelliptic equations, and the theory of continued fractions.
