Euler-Kronecker constants of modular forms: beyond Dirichlet $L$-series

Abstract

The Euler-Kronecker constants related to congruences of Fourier coefficients of modular forms that have been computed so far, involve logarithmic derivatives of Dirichlet $L$-series as most complicated functions (to the best of our knowledge). However, generically the more complicated Artin $L$-series will make their appearance. Here we work out some simple examples involving an Artin $L$-series related to an ${\mathfrak S}_3$, respectively~${\mathfrak S}_4$ extension. These examples are related to a mod-2 congruence for $X_0(11)$, respectively a mod-59 congruence for $\Delta E_4$ conjectured by Serre and Swinnerton-Dyer and proved by Haberland. The latter example solves a problem posed by Ciolan, Languasco and the third author in 2023.
