For the full modular group $\Gamma =S{L}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ and integer weight $k$, a modular form is a holomorphic function on the upper half-plane satisfyingand holomorphic at the cusp at infinity. Explicitly, periodicity under $\tau \mapsto \tau +1$ gives a Fourier expansion of a modular form in $q=e^{2\pi i\tau }$, and holomorphy at the cusp means $f={\sum }_{n\ge 0}{a}_n{q}^n$. A cusp form has $a_0=0$. All cusps are equivalent for this group. The matrix $-I$ forces $f=(-1{)}^{k}f$, so every odd-weight modular form is zero.

There is a corresponding qualification to the displayed Eisenstein series formula: the Bernoulli-normalized formula is for even integers $k\ge 4$. For odd integers $k>2$, pairing $(m,n)$ with $(-m,-n)$ gives $G_k=0$, while $B_k=0$, so the printed expression divided by $B_k$ is undefined. We prove the asserted nonzero formula in its even-weight range.

On each compact set in the upper half-plane, the real-linear map $(m,n)\mapsto m\tau +n$ has a uniformly bounded inverse. Hence $|m\tau +n|\ge C(m^2+n^2{)}^{1/2}$ there. For $k>2$, lattice convergence gives locally uniform absolute convergence of $G_k$, and therefore holomorphy. If $\gamma =\left(\begin{array}{cc}a& b\\ c& d\end{array}\right)\in \Gamma$, thenThe map $(m,n)\mapsto (ma+nc,mb+nd)$ permutes the nonzero integer pairs. Reindexing proves the weight-$k$ transformation law.

To compute the Fourier expansion of a normalized Eisenstein series, start from the cotangent partial-fraction expansionFor $\mathrm{Im}z>0$, the cotangent Fourier expansion is $\pi \cot (\pi z)=-\pi i-2\pi i{\sum }_{r\ge 1}{e}^{2\pi irz}$. Differentiating both normally convergent expressions $k-1$ times givesFor even $k$, the terms with $m=0$ sum to $2\zeta (k)$, and the terms with $m<0$ duplicate those with $m>0$. Substituting $z=m\tau$ in the last identity and collecting $N=mr$ givesThe rearrangement is absolutely convergent for every $|q|<1$, since the divisor function grows at most polynomially.

For completeness, the normalization follows directly from the definition of the Bernoulli numbers. Near zero, the cotangent partial-fraction expansion givesOn the other hand $\pi \cot (\pi z)=\pi i+2\pi i/(e^{2\pi iz}-1)$. Substitute $t=2\pi iz$ in the generating function of the Bernoulli numbers. The term $B_1=-1/2$ cancels $\pi i$, and the higher odd terms vanish because $t/(e^t-1)+t/2$ is even. Comparison of Laurent coefficients proves the Euler evaluation of even zeta valuesThusThis Fourier series also proves holomorphy at infinity, completing the modular form verification.

For the Ramanujan congruence modulo 691, the standard facts we use are that the modular discriminant is the weight-twelve cusp form $\Delta =q{\prod }_{n\ge 1}(1-q^n{)}^{24}={\sum }_{n\ge 1}\tau (n)q^n$, and that $S_{12}=\mathbb{C}\Delta$. The latter also follows from the valence formula for the modular group: a nonzero weight-twelve modular form has total weighted zero order one, so a cusp form whose coefficient of $q$ vanishes would have cusp order at least two and must be zero. The product makes the Ramanujan tau function integer-valued.

Write $E_k=G_k/(2\zeta (k))$. Using $B_4=-1/30$ and the supplied $B_{12}=-691/2730$, we haveBoth $E_{12}$ and $E_4^3$ have weight twelve and constant term one. Their difference is a cusp form, so is a multiple of $\Delta$. Its coefficient of $q$ is $65520/691-720=-432000/691$, which determines that multiple:The coefficients of $E_4^3$ are integers. Comparing the positive-index Fourier coefficients and reducing modulo $691$ therefore gives $65520{\sigma }_{11}(n)\equiv -432000\tau (n)$. Both numerical constants are congruent to $566$ modulo $691$, and $\gcd (566,691)=1$. Cancellation proves
