The Dedekind eta function is defined by the infinite product
\[
\eta(z) = e^{\pi i z/12}\prod_{n=1}^\infty (1 - e^{2 \pi i z}) = q^{1/24}\prod_{n=1}^\infty (1 - q^n).
\]
and
\[
f(z) = \prod_{t\mid N} \eta^{r_t}(tz),
\]
where the exponent r_t are integers. Let k be an even positive integer, p be a prime, and m be a nonnegative integer. We find an upper bound for orders of zeros (at cusps) of a linear combination of classical Eisenstein series of weight k and level p^m. As an immediate consequence, we find the set of all eta quotients that are linear combinations of these Eisenstein series and, hence, the set of all eta quotients of level p^m whose derivatives are also eta quotients.

This is joint work with Zafer Selcuk Aygin (Northwestern Polytechnic).
