Algebraic integers as values of elliptic functions (Q2773283)

The authors examine the behavior of certain quotients of the Weierstrass \(\wp\)-function and Dedekind \(\eta\)-function when the argument is an imaginary quadratic number. An example of the type of results proved is as follows. Let \(\tau\) be any imaginary quadratic number and \(r,s,u,v\) be positive integers such that \((r,s)=(u,v)=1\). Let NEWLINE\[NEWLINE\phi(\tau) = \frac{\eta^2((\tau+1)/2)}{\eta(\tau+1)}.NEWLINE\]NEWLINE Then \(4\sqrt{rv}\phi(\frac{r}{s}\tau)/\phi(\frac{u}{v}\tau)\) is an algebraic integer dividing \(\sqrt{rsuv}\).
