Abstract

Fix a pair of relatively prime integers n>k≥1, and a point (η | τ) ∈ C×H, where H denotes the upper-half complex plane, and let a b c d ∈ SL(2, Z). We show that Feigin and Odesskii’s elliptic algebras Qn,k(η|τ) have the property Qn,k formula presented∼=Qn,k(η|τ). As a consequence, given a pair (E, ξ) consisting of a complex elliptic curve E and a point ξ ∈ E, one may unambiguously define Qn,k(E, ξ):=Qn,k(η|τ) where τ ∈ H is any point such that C/Z +Zτ∼=E and η ∈ C is any point whose image in E is ξ. This justifies Feigin and Odesskii’s notation Qn,k(E, ξ) for their algebras. The algebras Qn,1(η|τ) are commonly known as Sklyanin algebras in honor of Sklyanin’s discovery of Q4,1(η|τ).
