Moonshine paths for 3A and 6A nodes of the extended E8-diagram
Abstract
We continue the program to make a moonshine path between a node of the extended -diagram and the Monster. Our theory is a concrete model expressing some of the mysterious connections identified by John McKay, George Glauberman and Simon Norton. In this article, we treat the 3A and 6A-nodes. We determine the orbits of triples in the Monster where , and . Such correspond to a rootless -pair in the Leech lattice. For the 3A and 6A cases, we shall say something about the "half Weyl groups", which are proposed in the Glauberman-Norton theory. Most work in this article is with lattices, due to their connection with dihedral subgroups of the Monster. These lattices are , where is the relevant pair of -sublattices, and their annihilators in the Leech lattice. The isometry groups of these four lattices are analyzed.
