Shimura correspondence

In number theory, the Shimura correspondence is a correspondence between modular forms F of half integral weight k+1/2, and modular forms f of even weight 2k, discovered by Goro Shimura (1973). It has the property that the eigenvalue of a Hecke operator T_n² on F is equal to the eigenvalue of T_n on f.

Let $f$ be a holomorphic cusp form with weight $(2k+1)/2$ and character $\chi$ . For any prime number p, let

\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\Lambda (n)n^{-s}=\prod _{p}(1-\omega _{p}p^{-s}+(\chi _{p})^{2}p^{2k-1-2s})^{-1}\ ,

where $\omega _{p}$ 's are the eigenvalues of the Hecke operators $T(p^{2})$ determined by p.

Using the functional equation of L-function, Shimura showed that

F(z)=\sum _{n=1}^{\infty }\Lambda (n)q^{n}

is a holomorphic modular function with weight 2k and character $\chi ^{2}$ .
