Abstract

The slope of a p-adic overconvergent eigenform of weight k is the p-adic valuation of its Up eigenvalue. We find the slope of all 2-adic finite slope overconvergent eigenforms of tame level 1 and weight 0. As a consequence we prove that any finite slope 2-adic overconvergent eigenform of tame level 1 and weight 0 has coefficients in Q2. These results provide evidence towards conjectures of the first author that predict the slopes of classical p-adic modular forms under a mild ``Gamma0(N)''-regular hypothesis on p.
