We use the theory of ${}_2F_1(1)$ hypergeometric series and Ramanujan's theory of alternative bases to compute the exact central $L$-value of these Hecke eigenforms in terms of special beta values. We also show the integral Fourier coefficients can be written in terms of Jacobi sums, reflecting a motivic relation between the hypergeometric series and the modular forms.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2025-02-12T20:06:26.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11F67" ], "keywords": [ "hypergeometric series", "modular forms", "hecke eigenforms", "framework relating hypergeometric motives", "special beta values" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
