In particular, this applies to the Hilbert class polynomial of discriminant $-d$ evaluated at the modular $j$-function. Among a number of powerful generalizations of Borcherds' work, Zagier made an analogous statement for twisted versions of this polynomial. He proves that the exponents of these product expansions, $A(n,d)$, are the coefficients of certain special half-integral weight modular forms. We study the congruence properties of $A(n,d)$ modulo a prime $\\ell$ by relating it to a modular representation of the logarithmic derivative of the Hilbert class polynomial.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2014-07-04T18:50:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F33" ], "keywords": [ "borcherds product exponents", "congruence properties", "hilbert class polynomial", "special half-integral weight modular forms", "product expansion" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2014arXiv1407.1294M" } } }
