In mathematics, the modular group is the projective special linear group (,) of matrices with integer coefficients and determinant, such that the matrices and are identified. The modular group acts on the upper-half of the complex plane by linear fractional transformations .
The matrices [e 1, ..., e n] are divisible by all non-zero linear forms in the variables X i with coefficients in the finite field F q. In particular the Moore determinant [0, 1, ..., n − 1] is a product of such linear forms, taken over 1 + q + q 2 + ... + q n – 1 representatives of ( n – 1)-dimensional projective space over the field.
Simulink is a MATLAB-based graphical programming environment for modeling, simulating and analyzing multidomain dynamical systems. Its primary interface is a graphical block diagramming tool and a customizable set of block libraries .
Within finite group theory, character-theoretic results proved by Richard Brauer using modular representation theory played an important role in early progress towards the classification of finite simple groups, especially for simple groups whose characterization was not amenable to purely group-theoretic methods because their Sylow 2-subgroups ...
The modular function is a continuous group homomorphism from G to the multiplicative group of positive real numbers. A group is called unimodular if the modular function is identically 1 {\displaystyle 1} , or, equivalently, if the Haar measure is both left and right invariant.
It contains the modular group PSL(2, Z). Also closely related is the 2-fold covering group, Mp(2, R), a metaplectic group (thinking of SL(2, R) as a symplectic group). Another related group is SL ± (2, R), the group of real 2 × 2 matrices with determinant ±1; this is more commonly used in the context of the modular group, however.
A modular function is a function that is invariant with respect to the modular group, but without the condition that it be holomorphic in the upper half-plane (among other requirements). Instead, modular functions are meromorphic : they are holomorphic on the complement of a set of isolated points, which are poles of the function.
In 1973, Pierre Deligne and Michael Rapoport showed that the ring of modular forms M(Γ) is finitely generated when Γ is a congruence subgroup of SL(2, Z). [2]In 2003, Lev Borisov and Paul Gunnells showed that the ring of modular forms M(Γ) is generated in weight at most 3 when is the congruence subgroup () of prime level N in SL(2, Z) using the theory of toric modular forms.
