Cusps forms for $\Gamma (N)$ I know how to build a basis of the vector space of cusp forms for the congruence subgroups $\Gamma_1 (N)$ and $\Gamma_0 (N)$, but I couldn't find in the literature how to build a basis for $\Gamma(N)$. 
Also, Sage doesn't seem to be able to do this. 
For instance, for $N=6$ and weight 2, the dimension of this space is 1. Is it possible to compute explicitely the Fourier coefficients of the cusp form ? 
 A: You can do this in Sage but "in disguise". The idea is that if $f(z)$ is a cusp form for $\Gamma(N)$, then $g(z) := f(Nz)$ is a cusp form for a certain subgroup intermediate between $\Gamma_0(N^2)$ and $\Gamma_1(N^2)$ which Sage calls $\Gamma_H(N^2, [N + 1])$; the $N + 1$ is here because it generates the subgroup of $(\mathbf{Z} / N^2 \mathbf{Z})^\times$ consisting of classes that are 1 mod $N$. If $f(z) = \sum a_n q^{n/N}$, then $g(z) = \sum a_n q^n$, so if you have the $q$-expansion of $g$ then you have the $q$-expansion of $f$ and vice versa.

sage: G = GammaH(36, [7])
sage: G.index() == Gamma(6).index()
True
sage: [g.q_expansion(25) for g in CuspForms(G, 2).basis()]
[q - 4*q^7 + 2*q^13 + 8*q^19 + O(q^25)]

(Note that this $g$ actually has trivial character, and is of CM type, so its $q$-expansion has lots of zero coefficients.)
