Finite Group Modular Data
In a remarkable variety of contexts appears the modular data associated to finite groups. And yet, compared to the well-understood affine algebra modular data, the general properties of this finite group modular data has been poorly explored. In this paper we undergo such a study. We identify some senses in which the finite group data is similar to, and different from, the affine data. We also ...
متن کاملDiscrete Heisenberg-Weyl Group and Modular Group
It is shown that the generators of two discrete Heisenberg-Weyl groups with irrational rotation numbers θ and −1/θ generate the whole algebra B of bounded operators on L2(R). The natural action of the modular group in B is implied. Applications to dynamical algebras appearing in lattice regularization and some duality principles are discussed. Writing a contribution to a memorial volume one alw...
متن کاملThe Modular Group A Finitely Generated Group with Interesting Subgroups
The action of Möbius transformations with real coefficients preserves the hyperbolic metric in the upper half-plane model of the hyperbolic plane. The modular group is an interesting group of hyperbolic isometries generated by two Möbius transformations, namely, an order-two element, g2 HzL = -1 ê z, and an element of infinite order, g• HzL = z + 1. Viewing the action of the group elements on a...
متن کاملCongruence Subgroups of the Modular Group
The congruence subgroups of the classical modular group which can be defined as the automorphs modulo q of some fixed matrix are studied, and their genera determined. Let T = SL{2, Z). A congruence subgroup of T is any subgroup containing a principal congruence subgroup T^), defined as the set of elements A of T such that A = I mod q, where q is a positive integer. Of these one of the most impo...
متن کاملComputing with subgroups of the modular group
We give several algorithms for finitely generated subgroups of the modular group PSL2(Z), given by sets of generators. First, we present an algorithm to check whether a finitely generated subgroup H has finite index in the full modular group. Then we discuss how to parametrise the right cosets of H in PSL2(Z), whether the index is finite or not. Further, we explain how an element in H can be wr...
