Ternary Quadratic Forms And Half-Integral Weight Modular Forms

Let $k$ be a positive integer such that $k\equiv3\mod4$, and let $N$ be a positive square-free integer. In this paper, we compute a basis for the two-dimensional subspace $S_{\frac{k}{2}}(Γ_{0}(4N),F)$ of half-integral weight modular forms associated, via the Shimura correspondence, to a newform $F\in S_{k-1}(Γ_{0}(N))$, which satisfies $L(F,\frac{1}{2})\neq0$. This is accomplished by using a result of Waldspurger, which allows one to produce a basis for the forms that correspond to a given $F$ via local considerations, once a form in the Kohnen space has been determined
