Eisenstein range

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eisensteinreihen (after the German mathematician Gotthold Eisenstein ) are different series from the theory of modular forms or automorphic forms .

Holomorphic Eisenstein series

Rows of iron stones on the space of the bars

Let be two complex numbers with . The grid created by and is

.

The iron stone row from weight to lattice in is the infinite row of form

.

These series are absolutely convergent for ; for odd is .

Rows of iron stones on the upper half-level

The investigation of the Eisenstein series can be wlog on lattice form with limited, because for a grid with basic always applies:

,

and since the basis can be chosen to hold, one can compute the Eisenstein rows of any lattice once one knows them for those with basis . The latter is also abbreviated to:

.

The Eisenstein series can therefore be understood as a function on the upper half-plane .

Eisenstein series are holomorphic in the upper half plane and in the apex ( ).

The Eisenstein series is a modular form of weight to the group , that is, for having true

For are the polynomials with rational coefficients in and , i. H. , the recursion formula applies :

Especially for results from this Fourier developments and by a coefficient comparison (see below) the remarkable number theoretic Hurwitz identity (by Adolf Hurwitz ):

,

is there

the sum of the -th powers of the divisors of . However, this formula can also be proven elementary (that is, not functionally theoretically).

Fourier expansion

The Eisenstein series can be expanded into a Fourier series :

,

here is the Riemann zeta function . Another common representation is that of the standardized Eisenstein series

These are the Bernoulli numbers . This Fourier series has only rational Fourier coefficients.

Relation to elliptic functions

It be and . Then the Weierstrasse ℘ function for the lattice satisfies the differential equation

Conversely, for every elliptic curve there is over

a grid with and . The elliptic curve is then parameterized by

with . In particular, every elliptic curve is homeomorphic to a torus .
