Special values of modular functions on Hecke groups

From MaRDI portal





This paper shows once more that Hecke groups share more arithmetic properties with the elliptic modular group than usually expected. The main result is a class of explicit (finite, polynomial) relations between special values of the \(j\)-function for the Hecke group. This \(j\)-function is defined similar to the elliptic modular invariant, and the arguments for the special values correspond to a divisor of an arbitrary automorphic function \(f\) for the Hecke group. The constants involved in the formula depend on a product expansion of \(f\). They are rational for the arithmetic Hecke groups and transcendental for the non-arithmetic ones.
