Magneticity is preserved by the SL2 action

About 2 years old · traced to

Let Γ(N)\Gamma(N) be a principal congruence subgroup, let Mk(Γ(N))\mathcal{M}_k(\Gamma(N)) be the space of modular forms of weight kk, and let Mk,dmag(Γ(N))\mathcal{M}^{\mathrm{mag}}_{k,d}(\Gamma(N)) be its magnetic subspace of depth dd. For γ∈SL2(Z)\gamma\in\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}), write f∣kγf|_k\gamma for the weight-kk slash action.

SL2-action conjecture. For every γ∈SL2(Z)\gamma\in\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z}), the action

f⟼f∣kγf\longmapsto f|_k\gamma

on Mk(Γ(N))\mathcal{M}_k(\Gamma(N)) restricts to the magnetic subspaces Mk,dmag(Γ(N))\mathcal{M}^{\mathrm{mag}}_{k,d}(\Gamma(N)).

Since all cusps are SL2(Z)\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})-equivalent, this would mean that magneticity does not depend on the cusp chosen for the Fourier expansion. The conjecture is supported by computations on many examples.
