The proofs involve techniques from the theory of weak harmonic Maass forms, and in particular a result of Guerzhoy, Kent, and Ono on the $p$-adic coupling of mock modular forms and their shadows. Here we obtain strengthened versions of these results using techniques from the theory of holomorphic modular forms.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-02-02T18:33:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F33", "11F11", "11F03" ], "keywords": [ "adic limits", "weak harmonic maass forms", "express cusp forms", "weakly holomorphic modular forms", "mock modular forms" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160201036A" } } }
