Let $\mathcal M_m\subset M(2,\mathbb Z)$ be the set matrices with determinant $n$. The modular group $\Gamma$ acts on $\mathcal M_m$ from the left and we have the following finite set as a set of repr …

The $j$-ivariant has the following Fourier expansion $$j(\tau)=\frac 1q +\sum_{n=0}^{\infty}a_nq^n=\frac{1}{q}+744+196884q+21493760q^2+\cdots.$$ Here is $q=e^{2\pi i \tau}$. Is there some simple eff …

Let $$\gamma_2(\tau)=j(\tau)^{1/3},\qquad \mathfrak f_1(\tau)=\frac{\eta(\tau/2)}{\eta(\tau)},$$ where $j$ is the modular invariant and $\eta$ is the Dedekind eta function. Cox in his Primes of the f …

Let $\gamma_2(\tau)=j(\tau)^{1/3}$. The modular equation shows that the functions $$j\left(\frac{a\tau+b}{c\tau+d}\right),\qquad ad-bc=n$$ are integral over $\mathbf Z[j]$. Under what conditions is th …

I have a question which is fairly elementary, but first I must provide relevant context. Without it, my question would seem rather arbitrary and scarcely interesting. Note also that my question can be …

Let $f$ be a modular function of level $N>1$ and let $\gamma\in SL_2(\mathbf Z)$. Write $$f(\gamma\tau)=j(\gamma,\tau)f(\tau).$$ First question What can we say in general about the factor $j(\gamma,\ …
