Stability conjecture for distinguishing newforms at squarefree level

About 12 years old · traced to

Let n0(N,k)n_0(N,k) be the smallest nonnegative integer such that, for any newforms f,g∈Sk(Γ0(N))f,g\in S_k(\Gamma_0(N)), equality an(f)=an(g)a_n(f)=a_n(g) for all n≤n0(N,k)n\leq n_0(N,k) implies f=gf=g. Let N∈Z>0N\in\mathbb{Z}_{>0} be squarefree. Stability conjecture. There exists K∈Z>0K\in\mathbb{Z}_{>0} such that if k≥Kk\geq K is an even integer, then n0(N,k)n_0(N,k) is equal to the least prime that does not divide NN. This predicts that, for fixed squarefree level, the number of initial Fourier coefficients needed to distinguish newforms eventually stabilizes at the first prime not dividing the level.
