===Related statements=== The modularity theorem implies a closely related analytic statement: To each elliptic curve {{mvar|E}} over <math>\Q</math> we may attach a corresponding [[L-series of an elliptic curve|{{mvar|L}}-series]]. The {{mvar|L}}-series is a [[Dirichlet series]], commonly written :<math>L(E, s) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{a_n}{n^s}.</math> The [[generating function]] of the coefficients {{math|''a''<sub>''n''</sub>}} is then :<math>f(E, q) = \sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n q^n.</math> If we make the substitution :<math>q = e^{2 \pi i \tau}</math> we see that we have written the [[Fourier series|Fourier expansion]] of a function {{math|''f''(''E'',''τ'')}} of the complex variable {{mvar|τ}}, so the coefficients of the {{mvar|q}}-series are also thought of as the Fourier coefficients of {{mvar|f}}. The function obtained in this way is, remarkably, a [[cusp form]] of weight two and level {{mvar|N}} and is also an eigenform (an eigenvector of all [[Hecke operator]]s); this is the '''Hasse–Weil conjecture''', which follows from the modularity theorem. Some modular forms of weight two, in turn, correspond to [[holomorphic differential]]s for an elliptic curve. The Jacobian of the modular curve can (up to isogeny) be written as a product of irreducible [[Abelian varieties]], corresponding to Hecke eigenforms of weight 2. The 1-dimensional factors are elliptic curves (there can also be higher-dimensional factors, so not all Hecke eigenforms correspond to rational elliptic curves). The curve obtained by finding the corresponding cusp form, and then constructing a curve from it, is [[Elliptic curve#Isogeny|isogenous]] to the original curve (but not, in general, isomorphic to it).
