The optimal Sturm bound conjecture for quasimodular forms

Let k1k\geq 1 be an integer, let M~2k\widetilde{M}_{2k} be the space of quasimodular forms of weight 2k2k, and let fM~2kf\in\widetilde{M}_{2k}. The Fourier coefficients of ff are the coefficients in its qq-series expansion.

Optimal Sturm bound conjecture. The form ff is determined uniquely by its first dimM~2k\dim \widetilde{M}_{2k} Fourier coefficients. Furthermore, for every integer m2m\geq 2, the reduction f(modm)f\pmod{m} is uniquely determined by its first dimM~2k\dim \widetilde{M}_{2k} Fourier coefficients modulo mm.

Computations for 2k202\leq k\leq 20 support the conjecture, which would establish that the theoretically optimal Sturm bound holds for quasimodular forms. The claim remains open in the source.
