Abstract

In this paper we prove the existence of an infinite dimensional graded super-module for the finite sporadic Thompson group $Th$ whose McKay-Thompson series are weakly holomorphic modular forms of weight $\frac 12$ satisfying properties conjectured by Harvey and Rayhaun.

  • Introduction and statement of resultsOne of the greatest accomplishments of twentieth-century mathematics was certainly the classification of finite simple groups

  • The study of the representation theory of one of these groups, the Monster group M, the largest of the 26 sporadic simple groups, revealed an intriguing connection to modular forms: McKay and Thompson [41] were the first to observe that the dimensions of irreducible representations of the Monster group are closely related to Klein’s modular invariant

  • Rademacher series with a slightly different multiplier system mutatis mutandis, we find that the Rademacher sums we are interested in converge, assuming the convergence at s

Introduction

Introduction and statement of resultsOne of the greatest accomplishments of twentieth-century mathematics was certainly the classification of finite simple groups. Definition 2.2 We call a smooth function f : H → C a harmonic (weak)1 Maaß form of weight k with multiplier system ψ, if the following conditions are satisfied: (1) We have f |k γ (τ ) = ψ(γ )f (τ ) for all γ ∈ Γ0(N ) and τ ∈ H, where we define
