Abstract

I find an explicit description of modular units in terms of Siegel functions for the modular curves Xns+(pk)X^+_{ns}(p^k) associated to the normalizer of a non-split Cartan subgroup of level pkp^k where p2,3p\not=2,3 is a prime. The Cuspidal Divisor Class Group Cns+(pk)\mathfrak{C}^+_{ns}(p^k) on Xns+(pk)X^+_{ns}(p^k) is explicitly described as a module over the group ring R=Z[(Z/pkZ)/{±1}]R = \mathbb{Z}[(\mathbb{Z}/p^k\mathbb{Z})^*/\{\pm 1\}]. In this paper I give a formula involving generalized Bernoulli numbers B2,χB_{2,\chi} for Cns+(pk)|\mathfrak{C}^+_{ns}(p^k)|.
