Bianchi newforms

A Bianchi newform FF is a Bianchi modular form lying in the new subspace Sk(Γ0(N))new\mathcal{S}_k(\Gamma_0(\mathcal{N}))^{\text{new}} of the space Sk(Γ0(N))\mathcal{S}_k(\Gamma_0(\mathcal{N})) of Bianchi cusp forms of weight kk and level Γ0(N)\Gamma_0(\mathcal{N}) which is an normalised eigenform for the Hecke algebra T\mathbb{T}.

For each prime p\frak{p} of KK not dividing the level N\mathcal{N}, the eigenvalue apa_{\frak{p}} of TpT_{\frak{p}} on FF is an algebraic integer lying in the Hecke field of FF. This is a totally real Galois extension of Q\Q whose degree dd is the dimension of the irreducible component of the rational newspace Sk(Γ0(N))Qnew\mathcal{S}_k(\Gamma_0(\mathcal{N}))^{\text{new}}_{\Q} containing FF. The integer dd is the dimension of the newform FF. The Hecke eigenvalue apa_{\frak{p}} is also the coefficient of index p\frak{p} in the Fourier expansion of FF.
