On Modular Forms of Half Integral Weight

Goro Shimura
TL;DR: In this article, the connection of modular forms with zeta functions was clarified, and a more affirmative aspect of the subject was revealed, which might have given a rather negative and somewhat misleading impression that one would not be able to do much except in some special cases.

Modular Forms of Half Integral Weight

TL;DR: The Dedekind eta function and the theta function θ as discussed by the authors satisfy the automorphic factor (cz + d)k/2 with a positive odd integer k. (For some practical reasons, we take \( e^{2\pi in^2 z} \) instead of the usual \( e^{\pi in √ 2 z} in the definition of θ.)
