Arithmetic subgroups, finite index subgroups of \(\SL_2(\ZZ)\)#

class sage.modular.arithgroup.arithgroup_generic.ArithmeticSubgroup[source]#

Bases: Group

Base class for arithmetic subgroups of \(\SL_2(\ZZ)\). Not intended to be used directly, but still includes quite a few general-purpose routines which compute data about an arithmetic subgroup assuming that it has a working element testing routine.

Element[source]#

alias of ArithmeticSubgroupElement

are_equivalent(x, y, trans=False)[source]#

Test whether or not cusps x and y are equivalent modulo self.

If self has a reduce_cusp() method, use that; otherwise do a slow explicit test.

If trans = False, returns True or False. If trans = True, then return either False or an element of self mapping x onto y.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma0(7).are_equivalent(Cusp(1/3), Cusp(0), trans=True)
[  3  -1]
[-14   5]
sage: Gamma0(7).are_equivalent(Cusp(1/3), Cusp(1/7))
False

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Gamma0(Integer(7)).are_equivalent(Cusp(Integer(1)/Integer(3)), Cusp(Integer(0)), trans=True)
[  3  -1]
[-14   5]
>>> Gamma0(Integer(7)).are_equivalent(Cusp(Integer(1)/Integer(3)), Cusp(Integer(1)/Integer(7)))
False
as_permutation_group()[source]#

Return self as an arithmetic subgroup defined in terms of the permutation action of \(SL(2,\ZZ)\) on its right cosets.

This method uses Todd-Coxeter enumeration (via the method todd_coxeter()) which can be extremely slow for arithmetic subgroups with relatively large index in \(SL(2,\ZZ)\).

EXAMPLES:

sage: # needs sage.groups
sage: G = Gamma(3)
sage: P = G.as_permutation_group(); P
Arithmetic subgroup of index 24
sage: G.ncusps() == P.ncusps()
True
sage: G.nu2() == P.nu2()
True
sage: G.nu3() == P.nu3()
True
sage: G.an_element() in P
True
sage: P.an_element() in G
True

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> # needs sage.groups
>>> G = Gamma(Integer(3))
>>> P = G.as_permutation_group(); P
Arithmetic subgroup of index 24
>>> G.ncusps() == P.ncusps()
True
>>> G.nu2() == P.nu2()
True
>>> G.nu3() == P.nu3()
True
>>> G.an_element() in P
True
>>> P.an_element() in G
True
coset_reps(G=None)[source]#

Return right coset representatives for self \ G, where G is another arithmetic subgroup that contains self. If G = None, default to G = SL2Z.

For generic arithmetic subgroups G this is carried out by Todd-Coxeter enumeration; here G is treated as a black box, implementing nothing but membership testing.

cusp_data(c)[source]#

Return a triple (g, w, t) where g is an element of self generating the stabiliser of the given cusp, w is the width of the cusp, and t is 1 if the cusp is regular and -1 if not.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma1(4).cusp_data(Cusps(1/2))
(
[ 1 -1]
[ 4 -3], 1, -1
)

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Gamma1(Integer(4)).cusp_data(Cusps(Integer(1)/Integer(2)))
(
[ 1 -1]
[ 4 -3], 1, -1
)
cusp_width(c)[source]#

Return the width of the orbit of cusps represented by c.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma0(11).cusp_width(Cusps(oo))
1
sage: Gamma0(11).cusp_width(0)
11
sage: [Gamma0(100).cusp_width(c) for c in Gamma0(100).cusps()]
[100, 1, 4, 1, 1, 1, 4, 25, 1, 1, 4, 1, 25, 4, 1, 4, 1, 1]

[100, 1, 4, 1, 1, 1, 4, 25, 1, 1, 4, 1, 25, 4, 1, 4, 1, 1]
cusps(algorithm='default')[source]#

Return a sorted list of inequivalent cusps for self, i.e. a set of representatives for the orbits of self on \(\mathbb{P}^1(\QQ)\).

These should be returned in a reduced form where this makes sense.

INPUT:

  • algorithm – which algorithm to use to compute the cusps of self. 'default' finds representatives for a known complete set of cusps. 'modsym' computes the boundary map on the space of weight two modular symbols associated to self, which finds the cusps for self in the process.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma0(36).cusps()
[0, 1/18, 1/12, 1/9, 1/6, 1/4, 1/3, 5/12, 1/2, 2/3, 5/6, Infinity]
sage: Gamma0(36).cusps(algorithm='modsym') == Gamma0(36).cusps()            # needs sage.libs.flint
True
sage: GammaH(36, [19,29]).cusps() == Gamma0(36).cusps()
True
sage: Gamma0(1).cusps()
[Infinity]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Gamma0(Integer(36)).cusps()

>>> Gamma0(Integer(36)).cusps(algorithm='modsym') == Gamma0(Integer(36)).cusps()            # needs sage.libs.flint
True
>>> GammaH(Integer(36), [Integer(19),Integer(29)]).cusps() == Gamma0(Integer(36)).cusps()
True
>>> Gamma0(Integer(1)).cusps()
[Infinity]
dimension_cusp_forms(k=2)[source]#

Return the dimension of the space of weight k cusp forms for this group. For \(k \ge 2\), this is given by a standard formula in terms of k and various invariants of the group; see Diamond + Shurman, “A First Course in Modular Forms”, section 3.5 and 3.6. If k is not given, default to k = 2.

For dimensions of spaces of cusp forms with character for Gamma1, use the dimension_cusp_forms method of the Gamma1 class, or the standalone function dimension_cusp_forms().

For weight 1 cusp forms this generic implementation only works in cases where one can prove solely via Riemann-Roch theory that there aren’t any cusp forms (i.e. when the number of regular cusps is strictly greater than the degree of the canonical divisor). Otherwise a NotImplementedError is raised.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma1(31).dimension_cusp_forms(2)
26
sage: Gamma(5).dimension_cusp_forms(1)
0
sage: Gamma1(4).dimension_cusp_forms(1) # irregular cusp

dimension_eis(k=2)[source]#

Return the dimension of the space of weight k Eisenstein series for this group, which is a subspace of the space of modular forms complementary to the space of cusp forms.

INPUT:

  • k – an integer (default 2).

EXAMPLES:

sage: GammaH(33,[2]).dimension_eis()
7
sage: GammaH(33,[2]).dimension_eis(3)
0
sage: GammaH(33, [2,5]).dimension_eis(2)

sage: GammaH(33, [4]).dimension_eis(1)
4

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> GammaH(Integer(33),[Integer(2)]).dimension_eis()

>>> GammaH(Integer(33),[Integer(2)]).dimension_eis(Integer(3))
0
>>> GammaH(Integer(33), [Integer(2),Integer(5)]).dimension_eis(Integer(2))
3
>>> GammaH(Integer(33), [Integer(4)]).dimension_eis(Integer(1))
4
dimension_modular_forms(k=2)[source]#

Return the dimension of the space of weight k modular forms for this group. This is given by a standard formula in terms of k and various invariants of the group; see Diamond + Shurman, “A First Course in Modular Forms”, section 3.5 and 3.6. If k is not given, defaults to k = 2.

For dimensions of spaces of modular forms with character for Gamma1, use the dimension_modular_forms method of the Gamma1 class, or the standalone function dimension_modular_forms().

For weight 1 modular forms this generic implementation only works in cases where one can prove solely via Riemann-Roch theory that there aren’t any cusp forms (i.e. when the number of regular cusps is strictly greater than the degree of the canonical divisor). Otherwise a NotImplementedError is raised.

farey_symbol()[source]#

Return the Farey symbol associated to this subgroup. See the farey_symbol module for more information.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma1(4).farey_symbol()
FareySymbol(Congruence Subgroup Gamma1(4))

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Gamma1(Integer(4)).farey_symbol()
FareySymbol(Congruence Subgroup Gamma1(4))
gen(i)[source]#

Return the i-th generator of self, i.e. the i-th element of the tuple self.gens().

EXAMPLES:

sage: SL2Z.gen(1)
[1 1]
[0 1]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> SL2Z.gen(Integer(1))
[1 1]
[0 1]
generalised_level()[source]#

Return the generalised level of self, i.e., the least common multiple of the widths of all cusps.

If self is even, Wohlfart’s theorem tells us that this is equal to the (conventional) level of self when self is a congruence subgroup. This can fail if self is odd, but the actual level is at most twice the generalised level. See the paper by Kiming, Schuett and Verrill for more examples.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma0(18).generalised_level()
18
sage: from sage.modular.arithgroup.arithgroup_perm import HsuExample18      # needs sage.groups
sage: HsuExample18().generalised_level()                                    # needs sage.groups
24

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Gamma0(Integer(18)).generalised_level()
18
>>> from sage.modular.arithgroup.arithgroup_perm import HsuExample18      # needs sage.groups
>>> HsuExample18().generalised_level()                                    # needs sage.groups
24

In the following example, the actual level is twice the generalised level. This is the group \(G_2\) from Example 17 of K-S-V.

sage: G = CongruenceSubgroup(8, [ [1,1,0,1], [3,-1,4,-1] ])
sage: G.level()
8
sage: G.generalised_level()
4

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = CongruenceSubgroup(Integer(8), [ [Integer(1),Integer(1),Integer(0),Integer(1)], [Integer(3),-Integer(1),Integer(4),-Integer(1)] ])
>>> G.level()
8
>>> G.generalised_level()
4
generators(algorithm='farey')[source]#

Return a list of generators for this congruence subgroup. The result is cached.

INPUT:

  • algorithm (string): either farey or todd-coxeter.

If algorithm is set to "farey", then the generators will be calculated using Farey symbols, which will always return a minimal generating set. See farey_symbol for more information.

If algorithm is set to "todd-coxeter", a simpler algorithm based on Todd-Coxeter enumeration will be used. This is exceedingly slow for general subgroups, and the list of generators will be far from minimal (indeed it may contain repetitions).

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma(2).generators()
[
[1 2]  [ 3 -2]  [-1  0]
[0 1], [ 2 -1], [ 0 -1]
]
sage: Gamma(2).generators(algorithm="todd-coxeter")
[
[1 2]  [-1  0]  [ 1  0]  [-1  0]  [-1  2]  [-1  0]  [1 0]
[0 1], [ 0 -1], [-2  1], [ 0 -1], [-2  3], [ 2 -1], [2 1]
]

>>> from sage.all import *
>>> Gamma(Integer(2)).generators()
[
[1 2]  [ 3 -2]  [-1  0]
[0 1], [ 2 -1], [ 0 -1]

[
[1 2]  [-1  0]  [ 1  0]  [-1  0]  [-1  2]  [-1  0]  [1 0]
[0 1], [ 0 -1], [-2  1], [ 0 -1], [-2  3], [ 2 -1], [2 1]
]
gens(*args, **kwds)[source]#

Return a tuple of generators for this congruence subgroup.

The generators need not be minimal. For arguments, see generators().

sage: [n for n in [1..200] if Gamma0(n).genus() == 1]

ncusps()[source]#

Return the number of cusps of this arithmetic subgroup. This is provided as a separate function since for dimension formulae in even weight all we need to know is the number of cusps, and this can be calculated very quickly, while enumerating all cusps is much slower.

nregcusps()[source]#

Return the number of cusps of self that are “regular”, i.e. their stabiliser has a generator with both eigenvalues +1 rather than -1. If the group contains -1, every cusp is clearly regular.

We test that a bug in handling of subgroups not containing -1 is fixed:

sage: sage.modular.arithgroup.arithgroup_generic.ArithmeticSubgroup.nu3(GammaH(7, [2]))
2

order()[source]#

Return the number of elements in this arithmetic subgroup.

Since arithmetic subgroups are always infinite, this always returns infinity.

EXAMPLES:

sage: SL2Z.order()
+Infinity
sage: Gamma0(5).order()
+Infinity
sage: Gamma1(2).order()
+Infinity
sage: GammaH(12, [5]).order()
+Infinity

+Infinity
>>> GammaH(Integer(12), [Integer(5)]).order()
+Infinity
projective_index()[source]#

Return the index of the image of self in \(\PSL_2(\ZZ)\). This is equal to the index of self if self contains -1, and half of this otherwise.

This is equal to the degree of the natural map from the modular curve of self to the \(j\)-line.

EXAMPLES:

sage: Gamma0(5).projective_index()
6
sage: Gamma1(5).projective_index()
12

>>> from sage.all import *

12
reduce_cusp(c)[source]#

Given a cusp \(c \in \mathbb{P}^1(\QQ)\), return the unique reduced cusp equivalent to c under the action of self, where a reduced cusp is an element \(\tfrac{r}{s}\) with r,s coprime non-negative integers, s as small as possible, and r as small as possible for that s.

NOTE: This function should be overridden by all subclasses.

FURTHER DETAILS: This function returns a positive integer \(n\) such that the Hecke operators \(T_1,\ldots, T_n\) acting on cusp forms generate the Hecke algebra as a \(\ZZ\)-module when the character is trivial or quadratic. Otherwise, \(T_1,\ldots,T_n\) generate the Hecke algebra at least as a \(\ZZ[\varepsilon]\)-module, where \(\ZZ[\varepsilon]\) is the ring generated by the values of the Dirichlet character \(\varepsilon\). Alternatively, this is a bound such that if two cusp forms associated to this space of modular symbols are congruent modulo \((\lambda, q^n)\), then they are congruent modulo \(\lambda\).

REMARK: Kevin Buzzard pointed out to me (William Stein) in Fall 2002 that the above bound is fine for \(\Gamma_1(N)\) with character, as one sees by taking a power of \(f\). More precisely, if \(f \cong 0 \pmod{p}\) for first \(s\) coefficients, then \(f^r \cong 0 \pmod{p}\) for first \(sr\) coefficients. Since the weight of \(f^r\) is \(r\cdot k(f)\), it follows that if \(s \geq b\), where \(b\) is the Sturm bound for \(\Gamma_0(N)\) at weight \(k(f)\), then \(f^r\) has valuation large enough to be forced to be \(0\) at \(r*k(f)\) by Sturm bound (which is valid if we choose \(r\) correctly). Thus \(f \cong 0 \pmod{p}\). Conclusion: For \(\Gamma_1(N)\) with fixed character, the Sturm bound is exactly the same as for \(\Gamma_0(N)\).

A key point is that we are finding \(\ZZ[\varepsilon]\) generators for the Hecke algebra here, not \(\ZZ\)-generators. So if one wants generators for the Hecke algebra over \(\ZZ\), this bound must be suitably modified (and I’m not sure what the modification is).

todd_coxeter(G=None, on_right=True)[source]#

Compute coset representatives for self \ G and action of standard generators on them via Todd-Coxeter enumeration.

If G is None, default to SL2Z. The method also computes generators of the subgroup at same time.

INPUT:

  • G – intermediate subgroup (currently not implemented if different from SL(2,Z))

  • on_right – boolean (default: True); if True return right coset enumeration, if False return left one.

This is extremely slow in general.

OUTPUT:

  • a list of coset representatives

  • a list of generators for the group

  • l – list of integers that correspond to the action of the standard parabolic element [[1,1],[0,1]] of \(SL(2,\ZZ)\) on the cosets of self.

  • s – list of integers that correspond to the action of the standard element of order \(2\) [[0,-1],[1,0]] on the cosets of self.
