Torsion Quadratic Modules

A torsion quadratic module is the quotient $M/N$ of two quadratic integer lattices $N \subseteq M$ in the quadratic space $(V,\Phi)$. It inherits a bilinear form

\[b: M/N \times M/N \to \mathbb{Q} / n \mathbb{Z}\]

as well as a quadratic form

\[q: M/N \to \mathbb{Q} / m \mathbb{Z}.\]

where $n \mathbb{Z} = \Phi(M,N)$ and $m \mathbb{Z} = 2n\mathbb{Z} + \sum_{x \in N} \mathbb{Z} \Phi (x,x)$.

torsion_quadratic_module — Method

torsion_quadratic_module(M::ZLat, N::ZLat; gens::Union{Nothing, Vector{<:Vector}} = nothing,
                                                snf::Bool = true,
                                                modulus::fmpq = fmpq(0),
                                                check::Bool = true)

Given a Z-lattice $M$ and a sublattice $N$ of $M$, return the torsion quadratic module $M/N$.

If gens is set, the images of gens will be used as the generators of the abelian group $M/N$.

If snf is true, the underlying abelian group will be in Smith normal form. Otherwise, the images of the basis of $M$ will be used as the generators.

The underlying Type

Example:

julia> A = matrix(ZZ, [[2,0,0,-1],[0,2,0,-1],[0,0,2,-1],[-1,-1,-1,2]]);

julia> L = Zlattice(gram = A);

julia> T = Hecke.discriminant_group(L)
Finite quadratic module over Integer Ring with underlying abelian group
GrpAb: (Z/2)^2
Gram matrix of the quadratic form with values in Q/2Z
[   1   1//2]
[1//2      1]

We represent torsion quadratic modules as quotients of $\Z$-lattices by a full rank sublattice.

We store them as a $\Z$-lattice M together with a projection p : M -> A onto an abelian group A. The bilinear structure of A is induced via p, that is <a, b> = <p^-1(a), p^-1(a)> with values in $\Q/n\Z$, where $n$ is the modulus and depends on the kernel of p.

Elements of A are basically just elements of the underlying abelian group. To move between M and A, we use the lift function lift : M -> A and coercion A(m).

Examples

julia> R = rescale(root_lattice(:D,4),2);

julia> D = discriminant_group(R);

julia> A = abelian_group(D)
GrpAb: (Z/2)^2 x (Z/4)^2

julia> d = D[1]
[1, 0, 0, 0]

julia> d == D(A(d))
true

julia> lift(d)
4-element Vector{fmpq}:
 1
 1
 3//2
 1

N.B. Since there are no elements of $\Z$-latties, we think of elements of M as elements of the ambient vector space. Thus if v::Vector is such an element then the coordinates with respec to the basis of M are given by solve_left(basis_matrix(M), v).

Most of the functionality mirrors that of AbGrp its elements and homomorphisms. Here we display the part that is specific to elements of torsion quadratic modules.

Discriminant Groups

See V. V. Nikulin (1979) for the general theory of discriminant groups. They are particularly useful to work with primitive embeddings of integral integer quadratic lattices.

From a lattice

discriminant_group — Method

discriminant_group(L::ZLat) -> TorQuadMod

Return the discriminant group of L.

The discriminant group of an integral lattice L is the finite abelian group D = dual(L)/L.

It comes equipped with the discriminant bilinear form

\[D \times D \to \Q / \Z \qquad (x,y) \mapsto \Phi(x,y) + \Z.\]

If L is even, then the discriminant group is equipped with the discriminant quadratic form $D \to \Q / 2 \Z, x \mapsto \Phi(x,x) + 2\Z$.

From a Matrix

torsion_quadratic_module — Method

torsion_quadratic_module(q::fmpq_mat) -> TorQuadMod

Return a torsion quadratic module with gram matrix given by q and value module Q/Z. If all the diagonal entries of q have: either even numerator or even denominator, then the value module of the quadratic form is Q/2Z

Example

julia> torsion_quadratic_module(QQ[1//6;])
Finite quadratic module over Integer Ring with underlying abelian group
GrpAb: Z/6
Gram matrix of the quadratic form with values in Q/2Z
[1//6]

julia> torsion_quadratic_module(QQ[1//2;])
Finite quadratic module over Integer Ring with underlying abelian group
GrpAb: Z/2
Gram matrix of the quadratic form with values in Q/2Z
[1//2]

julia> torsion_quadratic_module(QQ[3//2;])
Finite quadratic module over Integer Ring with underlying abelian group
GrpAb: Z/2
Gram matrix of the quadratic form with values in Q/2Z
[3//2]

julia> torsion_quadratic_module(QQ[1//3;])
Finite quadratic module over Integer Ring with underlying abelian group
GrpAb: Z/3
Gram matrix of the quadratic form with values in Q/Z
[1//3]

Rescaling the form

rescale — Method

rescale(T::TorQuadMod, k::RingElement) -> TorQuadMod

Return the torsion quadratic module with quadratic form scaled by $k$, where k is a non-zero rational number. If the old form was defined modulo n, then the new form is defined modulo n k.

Invariants

is_degenerate — Method

is_degenerate(T::TorQuadMod) -> Bool

Return true if the underlying bilinear form is degenerate.

is_semi_regular — Method

is_semi_regular(T::TorQuadMod) -> Bool

Return whether T is semi-regular, that is its quadratic radical is trivial (see radical_quadratic).

radical_bilinear — Method

radical_bilinear(T::TorQuadMod) -> TorQuadMod, TorQuadModMor

Return the radical \{x \in T | b(x,T) = 0\} of the bilinear form b on T.

radical_quadratic — Method

radical_quadratic(T::TorQuadMod) -> TorQuadMod, TorQuadModMor

Return the radical \{x \in T | b(x,T) = 0 and q(x)=0\} of the quadratic form q on T.

normal_form — Method

normal_form(T::TorQuadMod; partial=false) -> TorQuadMod, TorQuadModMor

Return the normal form N of the given torsion quadratic module T along with the projection T -> N.

Let K be the radical of the quadratic form of T. Then N = T/K is half-regular. Two half-regular torsion quadratic modules are isometric if and only if they have equal normal forms.

Genus

genus — Method

genus(T::TorQuadMod, signature_pair::Tuple{Int, Int}) -> ZGenus

Return the genus of an integer lattice with discriminant group T and the given signature_pair. If no such genus exists, raise an error.

Reference

V. V. Nikulin (1979) Corollary 1.9.4 and 1.16.3.

brown_invariant — Method

brown_invariant(self::TorQuadMod) -> Nemo.nmod

Return the Brown invariant of this torsion quadratic form.

Let (D,q) be a torsion quadratic module with values in Q / 2Z. The Brown invariant Br(D,q) in Z/8Z is defined by the equation

\[\exp \left( \frac{2 \pi i }{8} Br(q)\right) = \frac{1}{\sqrt{D}} \sum_{x \in D} \exp(i \pi q(x)).\]

The Brown invariant is additive with respect to direct sums of torsion quadratic modules.

Examples

julia> L = Zlattice(gram=matrix(ZZ, [[2,-1,0,0],[-1,2,-1,-1],[0,-1,2,0],[0,-1,0,2]]));

Return the orthogonal direct sum S of T and U as a quotient of the direct sum of their respective covers.

It is given with the two injections $T \to S$ and $U \to S$.

Note that T and U must have the same moduli, both bilinear and quadratic ones.
