// For integral weight k >= 2, most of the computations 
// are done using modular symbols.  Example:
//
M := ModularForms(571); 
M;
time   nfs := Newforms(CuspidalSubspace(M));
#nfs;
nfs[1];
_<x> := PolynomialRing(Rationals()); // use 'x' for printing
[DefiningPolynomial(BaseRing(Parent(nf[1]))) : nf in nfs];
//
// Digression: let's look at the elliptic curve 
// associated to the first newform
//
E := EllipticCurve(nfs[1][1]);
E;
CremonaReference(E);
_ := MordellWeilShaInformation(E : ShaInfo);
//
// M has a uniquely determined basis: the echelonised basis
// of the Z-space of forms with integral Fourier coefficients
//
M := ModularForms(571); // redefine ==> don't use stored newforms
time   Basis(M, 20);
qExpansion( M.1, 50);
//
// Disadvantage: this requires computing up to a Sturm bound
PrecisionBound(ModularForms(571));
//
// Sometimes one might prefer to work directly with modular symbols: 
//
MS := ModularSymbols(571, 2, 1); // sign = +1 
                                 // ==> same dimension as modular forms
MS;
//

// This uses Basmaji's trick using two obvious multipliers
// (of weight 1/2 with levels 4 and 8).
//
// So for level N, this involves computing some integral weight
// forms with level LCM(8,N)
//
SetVerbose( "ModularForms", 1); // print info during computation
//
H := ModularForms(200, 3/2);
H;
time   Basis(H, 30);
//
// The space for level 196 has comparable size, but will take
// longer because it requires computations with level 392:
//
H := ModularForms(196, 3/2);
H;
time   Basis(H, 30);
// 
// Future functionality might include Hecke operators, 
// Shimura lifts, fast computation in weight 3/2, ...

// 
// This constructs those cuspidal eigenforms associated to 
// dihedral Galois representations.
DihedralForms(CuspidalSubspace(M));
// 
// In the output, $.1*$.2 denotes chi.
//
// In weight 1, no dimension formula is available, so the next line
// will force Magma to do the full computation of the space. 
Dimension(M);
//
// The algorithm uses an intersection trick to try to prove that the 
// dihedral forms span the cuspidal space.
// 
// In cases where they don't seem to, the intersection trick gives us
// a space that contains the correct space, and if equality holds, we 
// prove it by considering the squares of the basis elements.

// Two independent methods will be available for computing spaces 
// of parallel weight 2. 
// (For any given field and level, at least one of them applies.)
// 
// Dembele's algorithm: 
// 
// This uses a definite quaternion algebra, and computes Brandt matrices 
// in an optimized way.  A particular feature is that for forms over a 
// given field, the most time consuming computations are independent of 
// the level. 
//
// Greenberg-Voight algorithm:

// This uses an algebra that is unramified at exactly one infinite place.  
// Let Gamma be the Fuchsian group consisting of the units of norm 1

// The algorithm obtains a presentation of H^1( upper half plane / Gamma )
// by computing a fundamental domain, and calculates the Hecke action on H^1.

// We would like to make Magma better, and you can help us

//          magma-bugs@maths.usyd.edu.au
//
// People sometimes hesitate to report a problem due to 
// being unsure whether it's really a bug.  In fact, we'd
// like to receive more feedback from users generally.
// 
// Handy hints:
// '%P' prints all commands entered so far during a Magma session.
