The behaviour of Hecke polynomials modulo p has been the subject of some studies. In this paper we show that if p is a prime, the set of integers N such that the Hecke polynomials TNℓ,k for all primes ℓ, all weights k ≥ 2 and all characters χ taking values in {±1} splits completely modulo p has density 0, unconditionally for p = 2 and under the Cohen–Lenstra heuristics for p ≥ 3. The method of proof is based on the construction of suitable dihedral modular forms.
