In this post I will briefly explain what is a partition of a positive integer and how it is possible to relate this theory to quasimodular forms via the Bloch-Okounkov theorem.

How to Write a Modular Form In Terms of a Set of Generators?

Published:

In this post, I will explain an algorithmic way to write any modular form \(f \in \mathcal{M}_*(\Gamma)\) as a polynomial in the generators of the graded ring \(\mathcal{M}_*(\Gamma)\) (\(\Gamma = \Gamma_0(N), \Gamma_1(N)\) or \(\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})\)).

In the previous post, I discussed about some changes made in the code for the graded ring of modular forms in SageMath. However, there was one lacking feature and it was the pushout of two modular forms space. I will explain this feature in this post.

I will explain in this post a brief summary of what is the Google Summer of Code (abreviated GSoC). In short, the GSoC 2021 program is a 10-weeks program by Google where students all around the world are paired with mentors and work as developpers for an open source organization.
