A note on cusp forms as $p$-adic limits

Several authors have recently proved results which express cusp forms as $p$-adic limits of weakly holomorphic modular forms under repeated application of Atkin's $U$-operator. The proofs involve techniques from the theory of weak harmonic Maass forms, and in particular a result of Guerzhoy, Kent, and Ono on the $p$-adic coupling of mock modular forms and their shadows. Here we obtain strengthened versions of these results using techniques from the theory of holomorphic modular forms.
