\(p\)-adic limit of the Fourier coefficients of weakly holomorphic modular forms of half integral weight (Q5962244)

From the authors' abstract: Serre obtained the \(p\)-adic limit of the integral Fourier coefficients of modular forms on \(\text{SL}_2(\mathbb Z)\) for \(p=2,3,5,7\). In this paper, we extend the result of Serre to weakly holomorphic modular forms of half integral weight on \(\Gamma_0(4N)\) for \(N=1,2,4\). The proof is based on linear relations among Fourier coefficients of modular forms of half integral weight. As applications to our main result, we obtain congruences on various modular objects, such as those for Borcherds exponents, for Fourier coefficients of quotients of Eisenstein series and for Fourier coefficients of Siegel modular forms on the Maass space.
