Eigenvalues and congruences for the weight $3$ paramodular nonlifts of levels $61$, $73$, and $79$

We use Borcherds products to give a new construction of the weight $3$ paramodular nonlift eigenform $f_N$ for levels $N = 61, 73, 79$. We classify the congruences of $f_N$ to Gritsenko lifts. We provide techniques that compute eigenvalues to support future modularity applications. Our method does not compute Hecke eigenvalues from Fourier coefficients but instead uses elliptic modular forms, specifically the restrictions of Gritsenko lifts and their images under the slash operator to modular curves.

Siegel Paramodular Forms of Weight 2 and Squarefree Level

We compute the space $S_2(K(N))$ of weight $2$ Siegel paramodular cusp forms of squarefree level $N<300$. In conformance with the paramodular conjecture of A. Brumer and K. Kramer, the space is only the additive (Gritsenko) lift space of the Jacobi cusp form space $J_{2,N}^{\text{cusp}}$ except for $N=249,295$, when it further contains one nonlift newform. For these two values of $N$, the Hasse-Weil $p$-Euler factors of a relevant abelian surface match the spin $p$-Euler factors of the nonlift newform for the first two primes $p\nmid N$.

Using Katsurada's Determination of the Eisenstein Series to Compute Siegel Eigenforms

We compute Hecke eigenform bases of spaces of level one, degree~three Siegel modular forms and 2-Euler factors of the eigenforms through weight 22. Our method uses the Fourier coefficients of Siegel Eisenstein series, which are fully known and computationally tractable by the work of H. Katsurada; we also use P. Garrett's decomposition of the pullback of the Eisenstein series through the Witt map. Our results support I. Miyawaki's conjectural lift, and they give examples of eigenforms that are congruence neighbors.
