Hecke Operators on \(q\)-expansions

sage.modular.modform.hecke_operator_on_qexp.hecke_operator_on_basis(B, n, k, eps=None, already_echelonized=False)

Given a basis \(B\) of \(q\)-expansions for a space of modular forms with character \(\varepsilon\) to precision at least \(\#B\cdot n+1\), this function computes the matrix of \(T_n\) relative to \(B\).

Note

If the elements of B are not known to sufficient precision, this function will report that the vectors are linearly dependent (since they are to the specified precision).

INPUT:

• B - list of q-expansions
• n - an integer >= 1
• k - an integer
• eps - Dirichlet character
• already_echelonized – bool (default: False); if True, use that the basis is already in Echelon form, which saves a lot of time.

Given the \(q\)-expansion \(f\) of a modular form with character \(\varepsilon\), this function computes the image of \(f\) under the Hecke operator \(T_{n,k}\) of weight \(k\).
