A complex lattice is identified with a PeriodPair: a pair (ω₁, ω₂) of complex
numbers that are linearly independent over ℝ, generating a rank-2 ℤ-lattice in ℂ.
Instances For
Construct a complex lattice from two periods ω₁, ω₂ : ℂ together with a proof
that they are linearly independent over ℝ.
Instances For
The two periods ω₁, ω₂ of a complex lattice are linearly independent over ℝ.
A complex number x lies in the lattice L iff it has an integer expression
n₁ ω₁ + n₂ ω₂ in terms of the lattice's periods.
The first period ω₁ belongs to the lattice L.
The second period ω₂ belongs to the lattice L.
The subgroup underlying a complex lattice carries the discrete topology induced from ℂ.
A complex lattice is a ℤ-lattice in ℂ (viewed as an ℝ-vector space).
The complex lattice has ℤ-rank equal to 2.
A ℤ-basis of the lattice of size 2, given by the two periods of L.
Instances For
The ℤ-linear equivalence between the lattice L and ℤ × ℤ provided by the
basis of periods.
Instances For
A complex lattice is a closed subset of ℂ.
The complex lattice viewed as an additive subgroup of ℂ.
Instances For
The lattice as a set: all complex numbers of the form a • ω₁ + b • ω₂ with
a, b ∈ ℤ.
Instances For
A complex lattice L is normalized if ω₂ / ω₁ lies in the upper half plane,
i.e. its imaginary part is positive.
Instances For
Two complex lattices L and L' are homothetic if there is a nonzero complex
scalar c such that L' (as a set in ℂ) equals c • L.
Instances For
Homothety is reflexive: any lattice is homothetic to itself via the scalar 1.
Homothety is symmetric: if L and L' are homothetic via c, they are homothetic
via c⁻¹ the other way.
Homothety is transitive: composing two homotheties yields a homothety.
Homothety of complex lattices is an equivalence relation.
The discriminant g₂³ - 27·g₃² of the Weierstrass cubic associated to the lattice.
Instances For
Definitional equation for the discriminant of a complex lattice.
The j-invariant of a complex lattice, given by 1728 g₂³ / Δ where Δ is the
discriminant.
Instances For
Definitional equation for the j-invariant of a complex lattice.
The fundamental parallelogram translated by α: the image of the fundamental
domain of L under translation by α.
Instances For
When the translation is 0, the fundamental parallelogram coincides with the
standard fundamental domain of the lattice.
A point z lies in the fundamental parallelogram based at α iff it can be
written as α + t₁ ω₁ + t₂ ω₂ with 0 ≤ t₁, t₂ < 1.
The quotient ℂ / L is in bijection with the fundamental domain of the lattice:
every coset has a unique representative in the fundamental parallelogram.
