Abstract

Given a primitive, non-CM, holomorphic cusp form f with normalized Fourier coefficients a(n) and given an interval I⊂ [- 2 , 2] , we study the least prime p such that a(p) ∈ I. This can be viewed as a modular form analogue of Vinogradov’s problem on the least quadratic non-residue. We obtain strong explicit bounds on p, depending on the analytic conductor of f for some specific choices of I.
