Streszczenie
Generalizing Gethner’s 1993 result we prove that rational period functions with irrational poles in higher level cases are not Hecke eigenfunctions. We also provide examples of rational period functions in level $2$ with irrational poles associated with indefinite binary quadratic forms by extending Choie and Parson’s 1990 result.
