Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to show how differential characters of Abelian varieties (in the sense of [A. Buium, Differential characters of Abelian varieties over p-adic fields, Invent. Math. 122 (1995) 309–340]) can be used to construct differential modular forms of weight 0 and order 2 (in the sense of [A. Buium, Differential modular forms, Crelle J. 520 (2000) 95–167]) which are eigenvectors of Hecke operators. These differential modular forms will have “essentially the same” eigenvalues as certain classical complex eigenforms of weight 2 (and order 0).
