We use deformation theory of pseudo-representations to study the completion of the Hecke algebra acting on the space of cuspidal modular forms of weight $k$ and level $\\Gamma_0(\\ell)$ at the maximal Eisenstein ideal containing $p$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the $\\mathbb{Z}_p$-rank of this Hecke algebra to be greater than $1$ in terms of vanishing of the cup products of certain global Galois cohomology classes. We also recover some of the results proven by Wake and Wang-Erickson for $k=2$ using our methods. In addition, we prove some $R=\\mathbb{T}$ theorems under certain hypothesis.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-06-08T17:40:15.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F80", "11F25", "11F33" ], "keywords": [ "hecke algebra", "global galois cohomology classes", "cuspidal modular forms", "results proven", "sufficient condition" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 33, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
