MODULAR forms - Abstract
We count the number of critical points of a modular form with real Fourier coefficients in a γ-translate of the standard fundamental domain ℱ (with γ ∈SL2(ℤ)). Whereas by the valence formula the (weighted) number of zeros of this modular form in γℱ is a constant only depending on its weight, we give a closed formula for this number of critical points in terms of those zeros of the modular form lying on the boundary of ℱ, the value of γ−1(∞) and the weight. More generally, we indicate what can be said about the number of zeros of a quasimodular form. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
