Abstract
Let p be an odd prime, p ≠ 3, and let g be the polynomial defined by
so that g(λ) is the standard formula for the Hasse invariant of the elliptic curve
We shall follow in general the notation of our article [3]. In terms of q-expansions, Atkin [1] has defined the transformation
but without the imposition of growth conditions one may construct eigenvectors with quite arbitrary eigenvalues; indeed formally, for any field element γ,
is trivially eigenvector for eigenvalue γ. Thus to obtain an interesting theory we impose the restriction that Up be applied to functions satisfying certain growth conditions. To explain these conditions for each pair of positive real numbers b1,b2, let L(b1,b2) be the space of all functions holomorphic and bounded on the set M\( M_{b_1 ,b_2 } \) consisting of all λ such that
