The modular invariant on the level-one quotient #

The normalized modular invariant j = E₄³ / Δ is holomorphic on the upper half-plane and invariant under the effective level-one group, the image of PSL(2, ℤ) in PSL(2, ℝ). It therefore descends through the orbit projection to a holomorphic function TauCeti.ModularGroup.jQuotient on the coarse level-one quotient.

The local multiplicities of the descended function are determined by those of j and the stabilizer orders: pulling back to the upper half-plane multiplies the local multiplicity at the orbit of z by the order of the stabilizer of z. At the elliptic point ρ the stabilizer has order 3 and j vanishes to order 3; at i the stabilizer has order 2 and j - 1728 vanishes to order 2. So the descended function is unramified at both elliptic orbits, and at every other orbit its local multiplicity equals that of j upstairs.

The descent uses the ordinary orbit quotient, without choosing representatives. Everything here concerns the uncompactified quotient; the behaviour of j at the cusp is not treated.

    The descended modular invariant is unramified at the orbit of i.

    At an orbit with trivial stabilizer, the descended modular invariant has the same local multiplicity as j. By stabilizer_psl2zToPSL2RRange_eq_bot_iff these are exactly the orbits other than those of i and ρ.
