Abstract

Given a prime p and cusp forms f₁ and f₂ on some Γ₁ (N) that are eigenforms outside Np and have coefficients in the ring of integers of some number field K, we consider the problem of deciding whether f₁ and f₂ have the same eigenvalues mod p^m (where p is a fixed prime of K over p) for Hecke operators T_ℓ at all primes ℓ {does not divide} N p. When the weights of the forms are equal the problem is easily solved via an easy generalization of a theorem of Sturm. Thus, the main challenge in the analysis is the case where the forms have different weights. Here, we prove a number of necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of congruences mod p^m in the above sense. The prime motivation for this study is the connection to modular mod p^m Galois representations, and we also explain this connection.
