Exotic arithmetic structure on the first Hurwitz triplet

Number Theory 2013-05-22 v5 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We find that the first Hurwitz triplet possesses two distinct arithmetic structures. As Shimura curves X1X_1, X2X_2, X3X_3, whose levels are with norm 13. As non-congruence modular curves Y1Y_1, Y2Y_2, Y3Y_3, whose levels are 7. Both of them are defined over Q(cos2π7){\Bbb Q}(\cos \frac{2 \pi}{7}). However, for the third non-congruence modular curve Y3Y_3, there exist an "exotic" duality between the associated non-congruence modular forms and the Hilbert modular forms, both of them are related to Q(e2πi13){\Bbb Q}(e^{\frac{2 \pi i}{13}})! Our results have relations and applications to modular equations of degree fourteen (including Jacobian modular equation and "exotic" modular equation), "triality" of the representation of PSL(2,13)PSL(2, 13), Haagerup subfactor, geometry of the exceptional Lie group G2G_2, and even the Monster finite simple group M{\Bbb M}!
