Zeroes of some degree of two elliptic functions












5












$begingroup$


Let $tau in {mathbb C}$ with $mathrm{Im} tau > 0$, $a,b in {mathbb Q}$ not both integers (it's not clear to me whether assuming only $a,b in {mathbb R}$ will make a difference to the question or not), $Lambda subset {mathbb C}$ the lattice generated by $1$ and $tau$ and $eta_1$, $eta_2$ the quasi-periods of the Weierstrass $zeta$ function $-int wp$ corresponding to $Lambda$ ( see e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weierstrass_functions), i.e. the values of the Weierstrass eta function at $1$ and $tau$.



While doing some work in algebraic geometry, I've come across the following degree $2$ elliptic function
begin{equation*}
Upsilon(z) = frac{1}{z(z-a-btau)} + sum_{omega in Lambda backslash {0}} left[ frac{1}{(z-omega)(z-omega-a-btau)} - frac{1}{omega^2} right] - frac{a eta_1 + b eta_2}{a+ b tau}
end{equation*}

Yes, this is quite similar to $wp$.




  1. Since I know nothing about complex analysis, I'd appreaciate any help "identifying" this function -- Does it have a name, can it be expressed in particularly simple way in terms of other functions. Has it appeared anywhere else? It's extremely possible that I'm missing something simple.


  2. What I actually need to know about this function is related to its zeroes. Clearly, it has poles at $0$ and $a+btau$, so we know the sum of the zeroes. Can its zeroes be computed? Is it easier than for $wp$? http://people.mpim-bonn.mpg.de/zagier/files/doi/10.1007/BF01453974/fulltext.pdf (I'm under the impression that $sum_{n geq 0} frac{1}{(an+b)^2}$ is harder than the other $sum_{n geq 0} frac{1}{(an+b)(an+c)}$, so maybe that's not so unlikely.)



P.S. If anyone is curious, the algebraic geometry calculation I was doing was taking place on a geometrically ruled surface over an elliptic curve $E$, specifically, the projectivization of the rank two bundle ${mathcal E}$ which fits in a nonsplit s.e.s. $0 to {mathcal O}_E to {mathcal E} to {mathcal O}_E to 0$.

    It's probably related to $zeta_Lambda(z)-zeta_Lambda(z-a-btau)$ where $zeta_Lambda$ is the Weierstrass zeta function.

    Let $c = a+btau$ and $f(z) = sum_{omega in Lambda} frac{1}{(z-omega)(z-omega-c)} - frac{1_{omega ne 0}}{omega^2}$ it converges and it is $Lambda$ periodic and meromorphic with two simples poles at $0,c$ thus $f(z+c/2)$ has two simple poles at $-c/2,c/2$. Then $wp(z)-wp(c/2)$ has two simple zeros at $-c/2,c/2$ and one double pole at $0$ so $f(z+c/2) (wp(z)-wp(c/2))$ has at worst one double pole at $0$ and hence $f(z+c/2) (wp(z)-wp(c/2)) =u, wp(z)+v$ where $u= f(c/2)$
