Abstract

In this note, we use automorphic Green functions to show that the generating function of a canonical basis for the space of weakly holomorphic modular functions with poles supported at the cusp \(i\infty \) for a Fuchsian subgroup of the first kind of genus zero has a weight 2 meromorphic modular form representation.
