숫자 12와 24

간단한 소개

• 수학에서 숫자 12와 24는 매우 흥미로운 수.
• modular group 과 깊게 관련되어 있음.
  
  • 12 = cusp form이 가질수 있는 가장 작은 weight
    \(\Delta(\tau)= q\prod_{n>0}(1-q^n)^{24}= q-24q+252q^2+\cdots\)
    는 weight 12 cusp form
    
  • \(SL(2,Z)_{ab}=C_{12}\)
  • \(\chi(SL(2,Z))=-\frac{1}{12}\)
• 24
  
  • The Eisenstein series
    \(E_2=1+24\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\sigma_1(n)q^n\)
     
    
  • Leech 격자의 차원
  • Sporadic group M24
  • If we take a double cover Mp2(Z) of SL2(Z), we have (Mp2(Z))ab = Z/24.
• 26=24+2 is the critical dimension in bosonic string theory
