Classically, congruence subgroups of the modular group, which can be described by congruence relations, play important roles in group theory and modular forms. In reality, the majority of finite index subgroups of the modular group are…

This is a short survey of the progress on the congruence subgroup problem since the sixties when the first major results on the integral unimodular groups appeared. It is aimed at the non-specialists and avoids technical details.

The maximal finite abelian subgroups, up to conjugation, of the simple algebraic group of type E8 over an algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 are computed. This is equivalent to the determination of the fine gradings on the…

Let $R$ be an associative ring with 1, $G=GL(n, R)$ be the general linear group of degree $n\ge 3$ over $R$. In this paper we calculate the relative centralisers of the relative elementary subgroups or the principal congruence subgroups,…

In this paper we will use experimental and computational methods to find modular forms for non-congruence subgroups, and the modular forms for congruence subgroups that they are associated with via the Atkin--Swinnerton-Dyer correspondence.…

It is known that the level $2$ principal congruence subgroup of $GL(n;\mathbb{Z})$ has a finite generating set. In this paper, we give a finite presentation of the level $2$ principal congruence subgroup of $GL(n;\mathbb{Z})$.

The present article gives the index formula of the principal congruence subgroups of the Hecke group H_5

In this paper, we study the combinatorics of congruence subgroups of the modular group by generalizing results obtained in the non-modular case. For this, we define a notion of irreducible solutions from which we can build all the…

In this note we give some new results concerning the subgroup commutativity degree of a finite group $G$. These are obtained by considering the minimum of subgroup commutativity degrees of all sections of $G$.

In this paper, we will give a series of non-congruent numbers with $\equiv3\pmod8$ prime factors.

Recently there has been quite a bit of study carried out related to arithmetic properties of overpartitions into non-multiples of two co-prime integers. The paper [19] by Nadji et al. looked into congruences modulo $3$ and powers of $2$ for…

In this paper, we prove the existence of an efficient algorithm for the computation of $q$-expansions of modular forms of weight $k$ and level $\Gamma$, where $\Gamma \subseteq SL_{2}({\mathbb{Z}})$ is an arbitrary congruence subgroup. We…

We investigate a degree 5 invariant of groups of type E8 and give its applications to the structure of finite subgroups in algebraic groups.

We give a computationally effective criterion for determining whether a finite-index subgroup of SL(2, Z) is a congruence subgroup, extending earlier work of Hsu for subgroups of PSL(2, Z).

In this note we give an explicit parametrization of the modular curve associated to the normalizer of a non-split Cartan subgroup of level 9. We determine all integral points of this modular curve. As an application, we give an alternative…

It is known that the Selberg zeta function for the modular group has an expression in terms of the class numbers and the fundamental units of the indefinite binary quadratic forms. In the present paper, we generalize such a expression to…

Let K be a subgroup of the inhomogeneous Hecke group G_5 of finite index. Suppose that the geometric level of K is r. Then K is congruence if and only if K contains the principal congruence subgroup of level 2r.

We give congruences modulo powers of 2 for the Fourier coefficients of certain level 2 modular functions with poles only at 0, answering a question posed by Andersen and the first author. The congruences involve a modulus that depends on…

The main purpose of this paper is to provide explicit computations of the fundamental group of several algebras. For this purpose, given a $k$-algebra $A$, we consider the category of all connected gradings of $A$ by a group $G$ and we…

We present a, hopefully, elementary mathematical treatment of the computational aspects of congruent numbers, such that an amateur could understand the problem and perform their own calculations.
