On the parity of the Fourier coefficients of hauptmoduln $j_N(z)$ and $j_N^{+}(z)$

Abstract

We obtain some interesting results about the parity of the Fourier coefficients of hauptmoduln $j_N(z)$ and $j_N^{+}(z),$ for some positive integers $N$. We use elementary methods and the techniques of O. Kolberg's proof for the parity of the partition function.
