We address this problem broadly and provide theorems of both individual and statistical nature. Many of these results are Eisenstein series analogues of well-known theorems for cusp forms. For instance, we determine how often the p-th Fourier coefficients of an Eisenstein newform begin with a fixed sequence of signs \\varepsilon_p = {\\pm 1, 0}. Moreover, we prove the following variant of the strong multiplicity-one theorem: an Eisenstein newform is uniquely determined by the signs of its Hecke eigenvalues with respect to any set of primes with density greater than 1/2.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-05-28T03:38:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "sign changes", "hecke eigenvalues", "eisenstein newform determine", "p-th fourier coefficients", "eisenstein newform begin" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1305.6356L" } } }
