ARE THETA FUNCTIONS THE FOUNDATIONS OF PHYSICS ?
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN MATHEMATICS - Year 2016, Vol 11, Issue 10
Abstract
The Jacobi theta functions are essentially rotations in a complex space and as such provide a basis for the lattices of the exceptional Lie algebras E6;E8 in complex 3-space and complex 4-space.In this note we will show that a choice of the nome q of the theta functions θE6 ;,θE8 leads to the equilateral tritangents of these lattices. Speciffcally we will find quarter period ratios of the real and complex axes. In particular E8 is isomorphic to the binary icosahedral group shown recently to describe Elementary Particle theory and Quantum Gravity so q is fundamental to the structure of space itself.

Theory of Linear Hahn difference equations
Hahn introduced the dierence operator Dq,wf (t)=(f(qt+w)-f(t))/(t(q-1)+w) in 1949, where 0<q<1 and w>0 are fixed real numbers. This operator extends the classical differance operator Vwf(t) = (f(t +...
Edge Jump Distance Graphs
The concept of edge jump between graphs and distance between graphs was introduced by Gary Chartrand et al. in [5]. A graph H is obtained from a graph G by an edge jump if G contains four distinct vertices u, v, w, and x...
Enlargement of A Local Group To A Group
Local lie groups are introduced by Cartan [1]. Local groups are local lie groups without topologically property. The aim of this paper is to find conditions that a local group is contained in a group . &...
Pseudo-Slant Submanifolds of a Locally Decomposable Riemannian Manifold
In this paper, we study pseudo-slant submanifolds of a locally decom- posable Riemannian manifold. We give necessary and suffcient conditions for distributions which are involued in the definition of pseudo-slant sub- ma...
