1 Comuting Differential Modular Forms Chris Hurlburt Northern Illinois University July 28, 2003

2 Let > 3 be a rime number. Let R be a comlete, discrete valuation ring whose maximal ideal is generated by and whose residue field is algebraically closed. Let φ : R R be the unique lifting of the Frobenius morhism to R. Let δ : R R be the ma δ(x) = φ(x) x. Then δ is the unique -derivation on R of the identity. In general Definition 1 A -derivation is a set theoretic ma, δ : A B, from a ring A to an A-algebra B such that δ(x + y) = δx + δy + C (x, y) δ(xy) = y δx + x δy + δxδy for all x, y A where C (X, Y ) = X +Y (X+Y ).

3 Very Comutable with Calculus tye Rules! First we must define an extension of C (X, Y ). Definition 2 For any q, let C ext ( q ( q) q) = Note that C ext (X + Y ) = X +Y (X+Y ) a very natural definition. = C (X, Y ), and so this is Lemma 1 Let δ : A B be a -derivation, let g = q, x, y A, and let n > 0 be an integer. Then the following are true. 1. δ( q) = δq + C ext ( q) 2. δ( 1) = 0 3. δ( x) = δx n ( n 4. δ(x n ) = ) 1 x (n ) (δx) = xn + (x + δx) n =1 ( ) 1 δx 5. δ = x x (x + δx) ( y 6. δ = x) x δy y δx x (x + δx)

4 Consider the following sequence of R-algebras where R f,δ M f 1,δ M 1 f 2,δ M 2... M = R[a 4, a 6, 1 ]ˆ M 1 = R[a 4, a 6, δ(a 4 ), δ(a 6 ), 1 ]ˆ M 2 = R[a 4, a 6, δ(a 4 ), δ(a 6 ), δ 2 (a 4 ), δ 2 (a 6 ), 1 ]ˆ each f i is the natural embedding, = 2 4 (4a a 2 6), and δ mas a 4 δ(a 4 ) a 6 δ(a 6 ) δ(a 4 ) δ 2 (a 4 ) δ(a 6 ) δ 2 (a 6 ) Then if X = Sec M, the first jet sace of X would be Sec M 1.

5 Let E be the ellitic curve over M 0 defined by the homogeneous equation f(x, Y, W ) = W Y 2 X 3 a 4 XW 2 a 6 W 3. Let U and V be the affine oen subsets of E given by the equations f(x, y, 1) and f(z, 1, w) resectively. So and on U V U = Sec M 0 [X, Y]/(f(X, Y, 1)) = Sec M 0 [x, y] V = Sec M 0 [Z, W]/(f(Z, 1, W)) = Sec M 0 [z, w] z = x/y w = 1/y. whence E = U V Next we define the first jets of U and V to be the sets U 1 = Sec M 1 [X, Y, δx, δy]/(f(x, Y, 1), δf(x, Y, 1)) = Sec M 1 [x, y, δx, δy] V 1 = Sec M 1, [Z, W, δz, δw]/(f(z, 1, W), δf(z, 1, W)) = Sec M 1 [z, w, δz, δw] Then E 1, the first jet sace of E, is the gluing of U 1 and V 1 by the mas z = x/y w = 1/y δz = x δy y δx y (y + δy) δy δw = y (y + δy)

6 Just as E is a grou scheme, E 1 is also a grou scheme. We can exress this grou law in terms of coordinates on either U or V. On V, the origin is (0, 0, 0, 0). Let P i = (z i, w i, δz i, δw i ). Then the inverse of P 0 is P 0 = ( z 0, w 0, δz 0, δw 0 ). The coordinates P 3 of the sum P 1 P 2 are given by z 3 = α µ w 3 = β µ where δz 3 = µ δα α δµ µ (µ + δµ) δw 3 = µ δβ β δµ µ (µ + δµ) α = 2w 2 z 1 w 1 z 1 + 2w 1 z 2 3a 6 w 2 w 2 1z 2 a 4 w 2 1z w 2 z 2 + 3w 2 2z 1 a 6 w 1 + w 2 2z 2 1a 4 β = 3w 2 z 2 z z 1 w 2 2w 1 a 4 3z 1 w 1 z w 2 1 w 2 w 2 1z 2 a 4 w 2 2 µ = 3a 6 w 2 w 1 (w 2 w 1 ) + 3z 2 z 1 (z 2 z 1 ) + a 4 (w 2 2z 1 w 2 1z 2 ) + w 1 w 2 + 2a 4 w 2 w 1 (z 2 z 1 ). Note: If z 1 = z 2, it is necessary to tae the limits of the grou law.

7 Let M(R) = {(a, b) R 2 4a b 2 R }. Then the set M(R) is in one-to-one corresondence with the set of airs consisting of an ellitic curve over R and an invertible 1-form. For any f M 1 if we substitute a, b, δa, δb in for a 4, a 6, δa 4, δa 6, then f defines a ma (still denoted by f) from M(R) to R. This element in M 1 is in fact uniquely determined by the ma from M(R) to R. Therefore we call f a δ modular function of order 1. We define a δ-character of order 1 to be a grou homomorhism χ : R R of the form χ = χ m,n where ( ) n φ(λ) χ m,n (λ) = λ m. λ A δ modular function has weight χ if for any λ R f(λ 4 a, λ 6 b) = χ(λ)f(a, b) for all (a, b) M(R). A δ modular form is a δ modular function with a weight.

8 A δ modular form is isogeny-covariant if for any two airs (a, b) and (ã, b) with an etale isogeny of degree N between the corresonding ellitic curves that ulls bac dx y to dx y f(a, b) = N /2 f(ã, b) where is a constant that deends solely on the weight. Note that for χ = χ m,n the constant is = m + n(1 ). Theorem 2 (Buium) For all δ-characters, χ, of order 1 there is u to multilication by a constant in Z a unique isogeny covariant δ modular form of weight χ.

9 We describe from the construction of the unique isogeny covariant differential modular form of weight χ 1, 1, called f jet now to comute f jet. We must Find two sections s U : U 0 M 1 U 1 and s V : V 0 M 1 V 1. Find the difference of sections under the grou law, s V s U, which determines a ma from (U V ) 0 M 1 E 1. Select the δz = ζ coordinate from this difference. Aly log φ 1 (ξ), the formal logarithm of the Frobenius twist of F 1 the formal grou of the ellitic curve to ζ = δz. Tae the residue class of log φ 1 (ζ) F 1 Then f jet =< log F φ 1 1 (ζ), ω >, the residue class of log φ 1 (ζ). F 1

12 Proosition 6 Let log φ 1 (ξ) be the formal logarithm of the Frobenius twist of the formal grou of the ellitic curve. F 1 Then log φ 1 (ζ) = ζ modulo 2 F 1 Proof: Recall log φ 1 (ξ) := ξ + φ(c 1) ξ φ(c 2 ) ξ F where the c i are the coefficients of the ower series exansion of the invariant differential. We also now that the invariant differential ω(z) = (1 + 2a 4 z )dz and so c 1 = 0, c 2 = 0, c 3 = 0, c 4 = 2a Hence modulo 2 the ower series log φ 1 (ξ) is the identity. F 1

13 We rovide an exlicit formula for the residue of xa y b call γ a,b. which we will We let ( n ) ) denote the binomial coefficient with the convention that = 0 if > n. ( n Proosition 7 Let a and b be ositive integers. Let m and n {0, 1, 2} be integers such that a = 3m + n. Then the residue of is x a y b 0 if b is even; γ a,b = ( )( ) m + m n b 1 m+ ( 1) 2 (a4 ) 3+2 n b 1 m 2 2+n (a 6 ) 2 if b is odd n =0 b 1 2 Using this formula, we define some more notation. Definition 3 Define µ a,b to be the residue class of xa Υ y b Υ = C ext (y 2 x 3 a 4 x a 6 ). Definition 4 Define τ a,b to be the residue class of xa Υ 2 y b Υ = C ext (y 2 x 3 a 4 x a 6 ). where where
