13x13 operator viewpoint

Using the saved 13 x 7 Hecke-eigenvalue matrix A, the full operator is A A^T on the cusp-form embedding space. Its nonzero eigenvalues match those of G = A^T A, so

g(x) = Tr((I - x A A^T)^(-1)) = f(x) + 6.

The 13x13 characteristic polynomial in the spectral variable λ is

lam**13 - 1792*lam**12 + 1101734*lam**11 - 287890132*lam**10 + 32967160008*lam**9 - 1634357991536*lam**8 + 29925111424384*lam**7 - 168144119646208*lam**6

because there are 6 zero eigenvalues. The formal polynomial has degree 13, but the number of free spectral parameters is still only 7, not 2g = 26.

Taylor expansion

QED comparison

No natural x makes the raw Hecke resolvent expansion look like the QED perturbation series: the constant term is rigidly 7 (or 13 on the full space), so it cannot match the QED tree-level 0.5 by tuning x.
