Siegel Upper Half Plane
In mathematics, the Siegel upper half-space of degree ''g'' (or genus ''g'') (also called the Siegel upper half-plane) is the set of ''g'' × ''g'' symmetric matrices over the complex numbers whose imaginary part is positive definite. It was introduced by . It is the symmetric space associated to the symplectic group . The Siegel upper half-space has properties as a complex manifold that generalize the properties of the upper half-plane, which is the Siegel upper half-space in the special case ''g=1''. The group of automorphisms preserving the complex structure of the manifold is isomorphic to the symplectic group . Just as the two-dimensional hyperbolic metric is the unique (up to scaling) metric on the upper half-plane whose isometry group is the complex automorphism group = , the Siegel upper half-space has only one metric up to scaling whose isometry group is . Writing a generic matrix ''Z'' in the Siegel upper half-space in terms of its real and imaginary parts as ' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Mathematics
Mathematics is an area of knowledge that includes the topics of numbers, formulas and related structures, shapes and the spaces in which they are contained, and quantities and their changes. These topics are represented in modern mathematics with the major subdisciplines of number theory, algebra, geometry, and analysis, respectively. There is no general consensus among mathematicians about a common definition for their academic discipline. Most mathematical activity involves the discovery of properties of abstract objects and the use of pure reason to prove them. These objects consist of either abstractions from nature orin modern mathematicsentities that are stipulated to have certain properties, called axioms. A ''proof'' consists of a succession of applications of deductive rules to already established results. These results include previously proved theorems, axioms, andin case of abstraction from naturesome basic properties that are considered true starting points of ...

Siegel Domain
In mathematics, a Siegel domain or Piatetski-Shapiro domain is a special open subset of complex affine space generalizing the Siegel upper half plane studied by . They were introduced by in his study of bounded homogeneous domains. Definitions A Siegel domain of the first kind (or first type, or genus 1) is the open subset of C''m'' of elements ''z'' such that :\Im(z)\in V \, where ''V'' is an open convex cone in R''m''. These are special cases of tube domains. An example is the Siegel upper half plane, where ''V''⊂R''k''(''k'' + 1)/2 is the cone of positive definite quadratic forms in R''k'' and ''m'' = ''k''(''k'' + 1)/2. A Siegel domain of the second kind (or second type, or genus 2), also called a Piatetski-Shapiro domain, is the open subset of C''m''×C''n'' of elements (''z'',''w'') such that :\Im(z)-F(w,w)\in V \, where ''V'' is an open convex cone in R''m'' and ''F'' is a ''V''-valued Hermitian form on C''n''.

Automorphic Forms
In harmonic analysis and number theory, an automorphic form is a well-behaved function from a topological group ''G'' to the complex numbers (or complex vector space) which is invariant under the action of a discrete subgroup \Gamma \subset G of the topological group. Automorphic forms are a generalization of the idea of periodic functions in Euclidean space to general topological groups. Modular forms are holomorphic automorphic forms defined over the groups SL(2, R) or PSL(2, R) with the discrete subgroup being the modular group, or one of its congruence subgroups; in this sense the theory of automorphic forms is an extension of the theory of modular forms. More generally, one can use the adelic approach as a way of dealing with the whole family of congruence subgroups at once. From this point of view, an automorphic form over the group ''G''(A''F''), for an algebraic group ''G'' and an algebraic number field ''F'', is a complex-valued function on ''G''(A''F'') that is left ...

Complex Analysis
Complex analysis, traditionally known as the theory of functions of a complex variable, is the branch of mathematical analysis that investigates Function (mathematics), functions of complex numbers. It is helpful in many branches of mathematics, including algebraic geometry, number theory, analytic combinatorics, applied mathematics; as well as in physics, including the branches of hydrodynamics, thermodynamics, and particularly quantum mechanics. By extension, use of complex analysis also has applications in engineering fields such as nuclear engineering, nuclear, aerospace engineering, aerospace, mechanical engineering, mechanical and electrical engineering. As a differentiable function of a complex variable is equal to its Taylor series (that is, it is Analyticity of holomorphic functions, analytic), complex analysis is particularly concerned with analytic functions of a complex variable (that is, holomorphic functions).

Mathematische Annalen
''Mathematische Annalen'' (abbreviated as ''Math. Ann.'' or, formerly, ''Math. Annal.'') is a German mathematical research journal founded in 1868 by Alfred Clebsch and Carl Neumann. Subsequent managing editors were Felix Klein, David Hilbert, Otto Blumenthal, Erich Hecke, Heinrich Behnke, Hans Grauert, Heinz Bauer, Herbert Amann, Jean-Pierre Bourguignon, Wolfgang Lück, and Nigel Hitchin. Currently, the managing editor of Mathematische Annalen is Thomas Schick. Volumes 1–80 (1869–1919) were published by Teubner. Since 1920 (vol. 81), the journal has been published by Springer. In the late 1920s, under the editorship of Hilbert, the journal became embroiled in controversy over the participation of L. E. J. Brouwer on its editorial board, a spillover from the foundational Brouwer–Hilbert controversy. Between 1945 and 1947 the journal briefly ceased publication.

Moduli Of Abelian Varieties
Abelian varieties are a natural generalization of elliptic curves, including algebraic tori in higher dimensions. Just as elliptic curves have a natural moduli space \mathcal_ over characteristic 0 constructed as a quotient of the upper-half plane by the action of SL_2(\mathbb), there is an analogous construction for abelian varieties \mathcal_g using the Siegel upper half-space and the symplectic group \operatorname_(\mathbb). Constructions over characteristic 0 Principally polarized Abelian varieties Recall that the Siegel upper-half plane is given byH_g = \ \subseteq \operatorname_g(\mathbb)which is an open subset in the g\times g symmetric matrices (since \operatorname(\Omega) > 0 is an open subset of \mathbb, and \operatorname is continuous). Notice if g=1 this gives 1\times 1 matrices with positive imaginary part, hence this set is a generalization of the upper half plane. Then any point \Omega \in H_g gives a complex torus X_\Omega = \mathbb^g/(\Omega\mathbb^g + \mathb ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Siegel Modular Variety
In mathematics, a Siegel modular variety or Siegel moduli space is an algebraic variety that parametrizes certain types of abelian varieties of a fixed dimension. More precisely, Siegel modular varieties are the moduli spaces of principally polarized abelian varieties of a fixed dimension. They are named after Carl Ludwig Siegel, the 20th-century German number theorist who introduced the varieties in 1943. Siegel modular varieties are the most basic examples of Shimura varieties. Siegel modular varieties generalize moduli spaces of elliptic curves to higher dimensions and play a central role in the theory of Siegel modular forms, which generalize classical modular forms to higher dimensions. They also have applications to black hole entropy and conformal field theory. Construction The Siegel modular variety ''A''''g'', which parametrize principally polarized abelian varieties of dimension ''g'', can be constructed as the complex analytic spaces constructed as the quotient of ...

Siegel Modular Form
In mathematics, Siegel modular forms are a major type of automorphic form. These generalize conventional ''elliptic'' modular forms which are closely related to elliptic curves. The complex manifolds constructed in the theory of Siegel modular forms are Siegel modular varieties, which are basic models for what a moduli space for abelian varieties (with some extra level structure) should be and are constructed as quotients of the Siegel upper half-space rather than the upper half-plane by discrete groups. Siegel modular forms are holomorphic functions on the set of symmetric ''n'' × ''n'' matrices with positive definite imaginary part; the forms must satisfy an automorphy condition. Siegel modular forms can be thought of as multivariable modular forms, i.e. as special functions of several complex variables. Siegel modular forms were first investigated by for the purpose of studying quadratic forms analytically. These primarily arise in various branches of number theory, su ...

Poincaré Half-plane Model
In non-Euclidean geometry, the Poincaré half-plane model is the upper half-plane, denoted below as H = \, together with a metric, the Poincaré metric, that makes it a model of two-dimensional hyperbolic geometry. Equivalently the Poincaré half-plane model is sometimes described as a complex plane where the imaginary part (the ''y'' coordinate mentioned above) is positive. The Poincaré half-plane model is named after Henri Poincaré, but it originated with Eugenio Beltrami who used it, along with the Klein model and the Poincaré disk model, to show that hyperbolic geometry was equiconsistent with Euclidean geometry. This model is conformal which means that the angles measured at a point are the same in the model as they are in the actual hyperbolic plane. The Cayley transform provides an isometry between the half-plane model and the Poincaré disk model. This model can be generalized to model an n+1 dimensional hyperbolic space by replacing the real number ''x'' by a v ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Symmetric Matrices
In linear algebra, a symmetric matrix is a square matrix that is equal to its transpose. Formally, Because equal matrices have equal dimensions, only square matrices can be symmetric. The entries of a symmetric matrix are symmetric with respect to the main diagonal. So if a_ denotes the entry in the ith row and jth column then for all indices i and j. Every square diagonal matrix is symmetric, since all off-diagonal elements are zero. Similarly in characteristic different from 2, each diagonal element of a skew-symmetric matrix must be zero, since each is its own negative. In linear algebra, a real symmetric matrix represents a self-adjoint operator represented in an orthonormal basis over a real inner product space. The corresponding object for a complex inner product space is a Hermitian matrix with complex-valued entries, which is equal to its conjugate transpose. Therefore, in linear algebra over the complex numbers, it is often assumed that a symmetric matrix refe ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Upper Half-plane
In mathematics, the upper half-plane, \,\mathcal\,, is the set of points in the Cartesian plane with > 0. Complex plane Mathematicians sometimes identify the Cartesian plane with the complex plane, and then the upper half-plane corresponds to the set of complex numbers with positive imaginary part: :\mathcal \equiv \ ~. The term arises from a common visualization of the complex number as the point in the plane endowed with Cartesian coordinates. When the axis is oriented vertically, the "upper half-plane" corresponds to the region above the axis and thus complex numbers for which > 0. It is the domain of many functions of interest in complex analysis, especially modular forms. The lower half-plane, defined by 0. Proposition: Let ''A'' and ''B'' be semicircles in the upper half-plane with centers on the boundary. Then there is an affine mapping that takes ''A'' to ''B''. :Proof: First shift the center of ''A'' to (0,0). Then take λ = (diame ...
