$\wp$-adic continuous families of Drinfeld eigenforms of finite slope

Abstract: Let $p$ be a rational prime, $v_p$ the normalized $p$-adic valuation on $\mathbb{Z}$, $q>1$ a $p$-power and $A=\mathbb{F}q[t]$. Let $\wp\in A$ be an irreducible polynomial and $\mathfrak{n}\in A$ a non-zero element which is prime to $\wp$. Let $k\geq 2$ and $r\geq 1$ be integers. We denote by $S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r))$ the space of Drinfeld cuspforms of level $\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r)$ and weight $k$ for $A$. Let $n\geq 1$ be an integer and $a\geq 0$ a rational number. Suppose that $\mathfrak{n}\wp$ has a prime factor of degree one and the generalized eigenspace in $S_k(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r))$ of slope $a$ is one-dimensional. In this paper, under an assumption that $a$ is sufficiently small, we construct a family ${F{k'}\mid v_p(k'-k)\geq \log_p(p^n+a)}$ of Hecke eigenforms $F_{k'}\in S_{k'}(\Gamma_1(\mathfrak{n}\wp^r))$ of slope $a$ such that, for any $Q\in A$, the Hecke eigenvalues of $F_k$ and $F_{k'}$ at $Q$ are congruent modulo $\wp^\kappa$ with some $\kappa>p^{v_p(k'-k)}-p^n-a$.
