Scharlau's talk

Basic structure & operations

  • R ground ring, e.g. R = Z_F

  • F is the quotient ring of R

  • V a vector space over F

  • basic structure: a quadratic module (L,b), where

    • L\subseteq V is a f.g. R-module s.t. FL=V

    • b : L\times L\rightarrow F symmetric bilinear form

Operations

  • scaling : ^\tau(L,b) := (L, \tau b)

  • multiplying : \tau\cdot(L,b) := (\tau L, b)

  • dualizing: (L,b)^\# := (L^\#, b)

    • L^\# := \{ y\in V \;:\; b(x,y)\in R\;\forall x\in L \}

  • intersection: L\cap M

  • sum L+M

  • sublattices
    • defined by generators
    • defined by congruences
      • in particular: L_{v,p} := \{x\in L \;:\; b(v,x) \in p \} for p an ideal of R and v\in L^\#.

  • radical modulo p

Example

  • "partial dual" of (L,b)

    • m\in F, then D_m(L,b) := (L^\#\cap m^{-1} L, mb).

    typically, L\subseteq L^\# and m\mid level(L,b)

    • (here level(L,b):=exponent(L^\#/L).)

    • remark: for the theta series \Theta_L, the operator D_p induces the Atkin-Lehner involution (at least in even dimension)

  • A Pari function for the partial dual, taking a Gram matrix as input
