Rigorous expansions of modular forms at CM points, I: Denominators (2502.00326v1)

Abstract: We describe an algorithm to rigorously compute the power series expansion at a CM point of a weight $2$ cusp form of level coprime to $6$. Our algorithm works by bounding the denominators that appear due to ramification, and without recourse to computing an explicit model of the corresponding modular curve. Our result is the first in a series of papers toward an eventual implementation of equationless Chabauty.
