  Hecke operator - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, in particular in the theory of modular forms, a Hecke operator is a certain kind of 'averaging' operator that plays a significant role in the structure of vector spaces of modular forms (and more general automorphic representations).
The theory of Hecke operators on modular forms is often said to have been founded by Mordell in a paper on the special cusp form of Ramanujan, ahead of the general theory given by Erich Hecke.
In the classical elliptic modular form theory it is shown that the Hecke operators are a C-star algebra with respect to the Peterson inner product; and that therefore the spectral theory implies that there is a basis of modular forms that are eigenfunctions for all Hecke operators.

 Erich Hecke - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Erich Hecke (September 20, 1887 – February 13, 1947) was a German mathematician.
He devoted most of his research to the theory of modular forms, creating the general theory of cusp forms (holomorphic, for GL(2)), as it is now understood in the classical setting.
The method extended to the L-functions associated to a class of characters now known as Hecke characters or idele class characters: such L-functions are now known as Hecke L-functions.

Hecke was awarded his doctorate at Göttingen in 1910 for a dissertation Zur Theorie der Modulfunktionen von zwei Variablen und ihrer Anwendung auf die Zahlentheorie which had been supervised by Hilbert.
Hecke remained at Göttingen where he was appointed as an assistant to Hilbert and Klein.
Probably Hecke's most important work was in 1936 with his discovery of the properties of the algebra of Hecke operators and of the Euler products associated with them.

 The Proof of Fermat's Last Theorem
There are certain operators called Hecke operators, after Erich Hecke, on spaces of modular forms, and for the subspace S(N) in particular, since they preserve the weight of a form.
Hecke operators can be defined concretely in various ways.
S(N) is a normalized eigenform of all Hecke operators, it can in fact be shown that the coefficients in the Fourier expansion are all algebraic numbers and that they generate a finite extension K of Q.

It turns out that the simultaneous eigenfunctions of all of the Hecke operators involve Dirichlet characters mod L, giving rise to the result that any arithmetic function of m that is completely multiplicative and also satisfies a linear recurrence must be a Dirichlet character times a power of m.

During World War I he was involved in war work, but also produced one of his major results, proving in 1917 the multiplicative property of Ramanujan's tau-function.
The proof was by means, in effect, of the Hecke operators, which had not yet been christened for Erich Hecke; it was, in retrospect, one of the major advances in modular form theory, beyond its status as an odd corner of the theory of special functions.
In 1920 he took a teaching position in Manchester College of Technology, becoming Reader at the Victoria University of Manchester in 1922 and Professor in 1923.

 Abstract for 2002/10/21: Russo   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
A Hecke correspondence is an association between entire modular (or automorphic) forms and Dirichlet series satisfying a prescribed functional equation.
In the mid 1930's, Erich Hecke clarified the connection by way of the Mellin transform.
In this talk, we will use a variation of the Mellin transform to discuss a Hecke correspondence theorem on certain classes of conjugates (by real 2×2 matrices of determinant one) of the Hecke groups.

The insight of Langlands was to find the proper generalization of Dirichlet L-functions which would allow the formulation of Artin's statement in this more general setting.
Erich Hecke had earlier related Dirichlet L-functions with automorphic forms (holomorphic functions on the upper half place of C that satisfy certain functional equations).
Langlands then generalized these to automorphic cuspidal representations, which are certain infinite dimensional irreducible representations of the general linear group GL n

Erich Hecke established the basic properties of Dirichlet L-functions in 1936, including a special symmetry called the "functional equation" which Riemann had already shown for his zeta function.
So I bet Hecke must have dreamt of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, even if he didn't dare state it.
Hecke also proved a functional equation for these back in 1936.

Hecke discovered an amazing connection between each modular form and a corresponding Dirichlet L-series.
In 1937 Erich Hecke showed (also see the above) that if the Fourier coefficients of a modular cusp form are plugged into a Dirichlet L-series, then that series can be uniquely factored into an Euler product, i.e.
It was mainly Taniyama who connected the elliptic and modular functions, and his result was used by Wiles to prove Fermat.
