Abstract

Following the work of Asai, Kaneko, and Ninomiya for Faber polynomials associated to PSL2(Z)\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z}), and Bannai, Kojima, and Miezaki's partial proof for the case of Γ0(2)\Gamma_0^*(2), we show that the zeros of certain modular functions associated to some low-level genus zero groups are all located on the boundary of certain natural fundamental domains for Γ\Gamma. The groups considered are Γ0(2)\Gamma_0^*(2), Γ0(3)\Gamma_0^*(3), Γ0(22)\Gamma_0(2\Vert 2), Γ0(5)\Gamma_0^*(5), Γ0(6)+\Gamma_0(6)+, Γ0(7)\Gamma_0^*(7), Γ0(42)+\Gamma_0(4\Vert 2)+, Γ0(33)\Gamma_0(3\Vert 3), and Γ0(10)+\Gamma_0(10)+.
