 Solution

Use the three left-coset representatives $I,S,ST$ for ${\Gamma }_0(2)\backslash {\mathrm{SL}}_2(\mathbb{Z})$. If a nonzero weight-four cusp form $h$ existed, its coset norm of a modular formwould be a nonzero weight-twelve modular form for the full group: right multiplication permutes its factors. At infinity $h$ has order at least one in $q$. The other two factors correspond to the zero modular cusp of cusp width two and each have order at least $1/2$ in $q$. Thus $H$ has order at least two there.

The ratio $H/\Delta$ is weight zero, holomorphic on the half-plane because $\Delta$ has no zeros there, and holomorphic at the modular cusp with value zero. It descends to a holomorphic function on the compact full modular curve. Such a function is constant, hence zero, contradicting $H\ne 0$. ThereforeConstant terms at the two modular cusps define a linear map $M_4({\Gamma }_0(2))\to {\mathbb{C}}^2$ whose kernel is this modular cusp space. It is injective, so the dimension is at most two. The forms $E_4(\tau )$ and $E_4(2\tau )$ are holomorphic weight-four forms for this group. For the second, the same conjugation used in 1(c) proves transformation, and $E_4(2S\tau )|$ after the weight factor is $2^{-4}{E}_4(\tau /2)$, proving holomorphy at zero. Their constant terms are both one but their $q$ coefficients are respectively $240$ and zero, so they are independent. We obtainThis is the weight-four Eisenstein basis at level two.
