Abstract

We study genuine local Hecke algebras of the Iwahori type of the double cover of $\operatorname{SL}_{2}(\mathbb{Q}_{p})$ and translate the generators and relations to classical operators on the space $S_{k+1/2}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{0}(4M))$, $M$ odd and square-free. In [9] Manickam, Ramakrishnan, and Vasudevan defined the new space of $S_{k+1/2}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{0}(4M))$ that maps Hecke isomorphically onto the space of newforms of $S_{2k}(\unicode[STIX]{x1D6E4}_{0}(2M))$. We characterize this newspace as a common $-1$-eigenspace of a certain pair of conjugate operators that come from local Hecke algebras. We use the classical Hecke operators and relations that we obtain to give a new proof of the results in [9] and to prove our characterization result.
