On the Relationship between Monstrous Moonshine and the Uniqueness of the Moonshine Module

We consider the relationship between the conjectured uniqueness of the Moonshine Module, V♮, and Monstrous Moonshine, the genus zero property of the modular invariance group for each Monster group Thompson series. We first discuss a family of possible Zn meromorphic orbifold constructions of V♮ based on automorphisms of the Leech lattice compactified bosonic string. We reproduce the Thompson se...

Aplicacion de la descomposicion racional univariada a monstrous moonshine (in Spanish)

This paper shows how to use Computational Algebra techniques, namely the decomposition of rational functions in one variable, to explore a certain set of modular functions, called replicable functions, that arise in Monstrous Moonshine. This is an active topic in Mathematics that links the Monster group and complex analysis due to a surprising relation between the character table of the Monster...

A Monstrous Proposal

We explain a conjecture relating the monster simple group to an algebraic variety that was discovered in a non-

Rademacher sums, Moonshine and Gravity

In 1939 Rademacher demonstrated how to express Klein’s modular invariant as a sum over elements of the modular group. In this article we generalize Rademacher’s approach so as to construct bases for the spaces of automorphic integrals of arbitrary even integer weight, for an arbitrary group commensurable with the modular group. Our methods provide explicit expressions for the Fourier expansions...
