Cusp forms as p-adic limits

Abstract

Ahlgren and Samart relate three cusp forms with complex multiplication to certain weakly holomorphic modular forms using $p$-adic bounds related to their Fourier coefficients. In these three examples, their result strengthens a theorem of Guerzhoy, Kent, and Ono which pairs certain CM forms with weakly holomorphic modular forms via $p$-adic limits. Ahlgren and Samart use only the theory of modular forms and Hecke operators, whereas Guerzhoy, Kent, and Ono use the theory of harmonic Maass forms. Here we extend Ahlgren and Samart's work to all cases where the cusp form space is one-dimensional and has trivial Nebentypus. Along the way, we obtain a duality result relating two families of modular forms that arise naturally in each case.

On the factorisation of the $p$-adic Rankin-Selberg $L$-function in the supersingular case

Given a cusp form $f$ which is supersingular at a fixed prime $p$ away from the level, and a Coleman family $F$ through one of its $p$-stabilisations, we construct a $2$-variable meromorphic $p$-adic $L$-function for the symmetric square of $F$. We prove that this new $p$-adic $L$-function interpolates values of complex imprimitive symmetric square $L$-functions, for the various specialisations of the family $F$. We use this $p$-adic $L$-function to prove a $p$-adic factorisation formula, expressing the geometric $p$-adic $L$-function attached to the Rankin--Selberg convolution of $f$ with itself as a the product of the $p$-adic symmetric square $L$-function of $f$ and a Kubota-Leopoldt $L$-function. This extends a result of Dasgupta in the ordinary case.

Exceptional poles of archimedean Rankin-Selberg L-functions for irreducible generic representations of GL(n,R)

For irreducible generic representations $π_1$ and $π_2$ of $\operatorname{GL}_n(\mathbb R)$, we prove that the notions of exceptional pole of type $1$ and type $2$ coincide at every level. When both representations are in general position, we use this identification to express the Rankin--Selberg $L$-function $L(s,π_1\timesπ_2)$ in terms of the exceptional $L$-factors attached to the irreducible constituents of their derivatives.
