We introduce the primitivity of Fricke families, and give some examples. As its application, we first construct generators of the function field of the modular curve of level $N$ in terms of Fricke functions and Siegel functions, respectively. Furthermore, we use the special values of a certain function in a totally primitive Fricke family of level $N$ in order to generate ray class fields of imaginary quadratic fields.
Let $K$ be an imaginary biquadratic field and $K_1$, $K_2$ be its imaginary quadratic subfields. For integers $N>0$, $μ\geq 0$ and an odd prime $p$ with $\gcd(N,p)=1$, let $K_{(Np^μ)}$ and $(K_i)_{(Np^μ)}$ for $i=1,2$ be the ray class fields of $K$ and $K_i$, respectively, modulo $Np^μ$. We first present certain class fields $\widetilde{K_{N,p,μ}^{1,2}}$ of $K$, in the sense of Hilbert, which are generated by Siegel-Ramachandra invariants of $(K_i)_{(Np^{μ+1})}$ for $i=1,2$ over $K_{(Np^μ)}$ and show that $K_{(Np^{μ+1})}=\widetilde{K_{N,p,μ}^{1,2}}$ for almost all $μ$.
We provide a concrete example of a normal basis for a finite Galois extension which is not abelian. More precisely, let $\mathbb{C}(X(N))$ be the field of meromorphic functions on the modular curve $X(N)$ of level $N$. We construct a completely free element in the extension $\mathbb{C}(X(N))/\mathbb{C}(X(1))$ by means of Siegel functions.
For positive integers $g$ and $N$, let $\mathcal{F}_N$ be the field of meromorphic Siegel modular functions of genus $g$ and level $N$ whose Fourier coefficients belong to the $N$th cyclotomic field. We present explicit generators of $\mathcal{F}_N$ over $\mathcal{F}_1$ in terms of quotient of theta constants, when $g\geq2$ and $N\geq 3$.
We investigate certain families of meromorphic Siegel modular functions on which Galois groups act in a natural way. By using Shimura's reciprocity law we construct some algebraic numbers in the ray class fields of CM-fields in terms of special values of functions in these Siegel families.
Let $\ell$ and $p$ be odd primes. For a positive integer $μ$ let $k_μ$ be the ray class field of $k=\mathbb{Q}(e^{2πi/\ell})$ modulo $2p^μ$. We present certain class fields $K_μ$ of $k$ such that $k_μ\leq K_μ\leq k_{μ+1}$, and find the degree of $K_μ/k_μ$ explicitly. And we also construct, in the sense of Hilbert, primitive generators of the field $K_μ$ over $k_μ$ by using Shimura's reciprocity law and special values of theta constants.
For a positive integer $N$ divisible by $4,5,6,7$ or $9$, let $\mathcal{O}_{1,N}(\mathbb{Q})$ be the ring of weakly holomorphic modular functions for the congruence subgroup $Γ_1(N)$ with rational Fourier coefficients. We present explicit generators of the ring $\mathcal{O}_{1,N}(\mathbb{Q})$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ by making use of modular units which have infinite product expansions.
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $\mathcal{O}_K$ be its ring of integers. Let $h_E$ be the Weber function on certain elliptic curve $E$ with complex multiplication by $\mathcal{O}_K$. We show that if $N$ ($>1$) is an integer prime to $6$, then the function $h_E$ alone generates the ray class field modulo $N\mathcal{O}_K$ over $K$ when evaluated at some $N$-torsion point of $E$.
We first investigate two kinds of Fricke families consisting of Fricke functions and Siegel functions, respectively. And, in terms of their special values we generate ray class fields of imaginary quadratic fields, which is related to the Lang-Schertz conjecture.
We first generate ray class fields over imaginary quadratic fields in terms of Siegel-Ramachandra invariants, which would be an extension of Schertz's result. And, by making use of quotients of Siegel-Ramachandra invariants we also construct ray class invariants over imaginary quadratic fields whose minimal polynomials have relatively small coefficients, from which we are able to solve certain quadratic Diophantine equations.
Let $n$ be a positive integer. We discuss pairs of distinct odd primes $p$ and $q$ not dividing $n$ for which the Diophantine equations $pq=x^2+ny^2$ have integer solutions in $x$ and $y$. As its examples we classify all such pairs of $p$ and $q$ when $n=5$ and $14$.
We show that every modular form on $Γ_0(2^n)$ ($n\geq2$) can be expressed as a sum of eta-quotients. Furthermore, we construct a primitive generator of the ring class field of the order of conductor $4N$ ($N\geq1$) in an imaginary quadratic field in view of the special value of certain eta-quotient.
We first find a sufficient condition for a product of theta constants to be a Siegel modular function of a given even level. And, when $K_{(2p)}$ denotes the ray class field of $K=\mathbb{Q}(e^{2πi/5})$ modulo $2p$ for an odd prime $p$, we describe a subfield of $K_{(2p)}$ generated by the special value of certain theta constant by using Shimura's reciprocity law.
By a change of variables we obtain new $y$-coordinates of elliptic curves. Utilizing these $y$-coordinates as modular functions, together with the elliptic modular function, we generate the modular function fields of level $N\geq3$. Furthermore, by means of the singular values of the $y$-coordinates we construct the ray class fields modulo $N$ over imaginary quadratic fields as well as normal bases of these ray class fields.
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field other than $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-1})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-3})$. We construct relative power integral bases between certain abelian extensions of $K$ in terms of Weierstrass units.
We show that a weakly holomorphic modular function can be written as a sum of modular units of higher level. We further find a necessary and sufficient condition for a Siegel modular function of degree $g$ to have neither zero nor pole on the domain when restricted to certain subset of the Siegel upper half-space $\mathbb{H}_g$.
Let $g$ be a principal modulus with rational Fourier coefficients for a discrete subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$ between $Γ(N)$ or $Γ_0(N)^†$ for a positive integer $N$. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field. We give a simple proof of the fact that the singular value of $g$ generates the ray class field modulo $N$ or the ring class field of the order of conductor $N$ over $K$. Furthermore, we construct primitive generators of ray class fields of arbitrary moduli over $K$ in terms of Hasse's two generators.
We show by adopting Schertz's argument with the Siegel-Ramachandra invariant that singular values of certain quotients of the $Δ$-function generate ring class fields over imaginary quadratic fields.
