Holomorphic descent to the coarse Fuchsian quotient #
A function on the coarse quotient of the upper half-plane by a properly discontinuous
projective subgroup is holomorphic if and only if its pullback to the upper half-plane is
holomorphic. This includes elliptic orbits: in the chart at a point with stabilizer order m,
the pullback is the composition with u ↦ u ^ m, and holomorphy descends through this power map.
The local statement Subgroup.differentiableOn_comp_stabilizerBallQuotientChart_symm needs
holomorphy of the pullback only on the chosen stabilizer ball. The global criterion
Subgroup.mdifferentiable_iff_comp_quotientMk and the unique descent theorem
Subgroup.existsUnique_mdifferentiable_quotientMk apply to functions valued in any complex
Banach space. They use the ordinary orbit quotient, without choosing representatives to
define the descended function. For maps into a complex manifold,
Subgroup.mdifferentiableAt_of_eventually_mdifferentiableAt_comp_quotientMk checks holomorphy at
an orbit, elliptic or not, from holomorphy of the pullback near one of its points, by reading the
map in a chart of the target.
The elliptic descent argument uses TauCeti.differentiableOn_descendPow and follows
Farkas–Kra, Riemann Surfaces, Chapter I §§4–5, and Miranda, Algebraic Curves and
Riemann Surfaces, Chapter III §§3–4.
In a stabilizer-ball chart, a function on the coarse quotient is holomorphic whenever its pullback is holomorphic on the ball. This holds also when the stabilizer is nontrivial.
Holomorphy on the full coarse quotient can be checked after pullback to the upper half-plane, including at elliptic orbits.
Holomorphic descent of maps into a manifold. A map from the coarse quotient to a complex
manifold is holomorphic at the orbit of z as soon as its pullback along the orbit projection is
holomorphic near z. This holds also at elliptic orbits; at a free orbit holomorphy of the
pullback at z alone suffices (Subgroup.mdifferentiableAt_of_comp_quotientMk).
Every invariant holomorphic function on the upper half-plane descends uniquely to a holomorphic function on the coarse quotient, with no freeness assumption.
