Introduction . h Let s = 0 or 1 . The Schr¨odinger-Virasoro algebra L[s] introduced in [1, 2, 3], in the t 2 a context of non-equilibrium statistical physics as a by-product of the computation of n- m point functions that are covariant under the action of the Schr¨odinger group, is the infinite- [ dimensionalLiealgebrawithC-basis{L , Y , M , c|m, n ∈ Z, p ∈ s+Z}andLiebrackets, 1 m p n v 9 m3 −m 20 [Lm, Lm′] = (m′ −m)Lm′+m +δm,−m′ c, (1.1) 12 2 m . 1 [L , Y ] = (p− )Y , (1.2) m p p+m 0 2 8 0 [Lm, Mn] = nMn+m, (1.3) : v i [Yp, Yp′] = (p′ −p)Mp′+p, (1.4) X ar [Yp, Mn] = [Mn, Mn′] = [L, c] = 0. (1.5) The Lie algebra L[s] contains as subalgebras both the Lie algebra S of invariance of the free Schr¨odingerequationandthecentralcharge-freeVirasoroalgebraVir,whereS istheinfinite dimensional Lie algebra, called the Schr¨odinger algebra, with the C-basis {Y , M |n ∈ p n Z, p ∈ s + Z}, and Vir is the Virasoro algebra with the C-basis {L , c|n ∈ Z}. The Lie n algebra L[1] is called the original Schr¨odinger-Virasoro algebra, while L[0] is called the 2 twisted Schro¨dinger-Virasoro algebra. It is well known that one attempt of introducing two-dimensional conformal field theory is to understand the universal behavior of two-dimensional statistical systems at equilibrium and at the critical temperature. A systematic investigation of the theory of representations 1 Supported by NSF grants 10471091, 10671027 of China, “One Hundred Talents Program” from Uni- versity of Science and Technology of China. Corresponding E-mail: sd [email protected] 1 of the Virasoro algebra in the 80’s led to introduce the unitary minimal models, corre- sponding to the unitary highest weight representations of the Virasoro algebra with central charge less than one. Miraculously, covariance alone is enough to allow the computation of the n-point functions for these highly constrained physical models. Since both original and twisted Schr¨odinger-Virasoro Lie algebras are closely related to the Schr¨odinger Lie alge- bra and the Virasoro Lie algebra, it is highly expected that they should consequently play an important role akin to that of the Virasoro Lie algebra in two-dimensional equilibrium statistical physics (see, e.g., [1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 10]). Partially due to the above-stated reasons, the Schr¨odinger-Virasoro Lie algebras have re- cently drawn some attentions in the literature. In particular, the sets of generators provided by the cohomology classes of the cocycles for bothoriginalandtwisted Schr¨odinger-Virasoro Lie algebras were presented in [6], and the derivation algebra and the automorphism group of the twisted sector were determined in [4]. Furthermore, vertex algebra representations of the Schr¨odinger-Virasoro Lie algebras out of a charged symplectic boson and a free boson with its associated vertex operators were constructed in [10]. Our motivation in studying the Schr¨odinger-Virasoro Lie algebras is to have a better understanding of their representations. Let us formulate our main results below. Denote H = span{L ,M ,c}, (1.6) 0 0 which is a maximal torus of L[s] (note that in case of s = 0, since the adjoint operator ad Y0 is not semi-simple, H⊕CY is not a torus but a Cartan subalgebra of L[0]). Denote by H∗ 0 the dual space of H. Definition 1.1 A module V over L[s] is called a (i) Harish-Chandra module if V admits a finite-dimensional weight space decomposition V = ⊕λ∈H∗Vλ, where Vλ = {v ∈ V |xv = λ(x)v, x ∈ H} such that dimVλ < ∞ for all λ ∈ H∗ (in case Vλ 6= 0, we call λ a weight of V); (ii) uniformly bounded module if it is a Harish-Chandra module such that there exists some N > 0 with dimVλ 6 N for all λ ∈ H∗; (iii) module of the intermediate series if V is an indecomposable Harish-Chandra module such that dimVλ 6 1 for all λ ∈ H∗. Remark 1.2 (i) Since the Schr¨odinger subalgebra S is an ideal of L, if S acts trivially on a module V, then V is simply a module over Vir. Thus in the following, we always suppose that S acts nontrivially on V. (ii) It is well known (see, e.g., [7, 8]) that a module V of the intermediate series over Vir is a quotient of one of the modules A , A(α), B(α) for some a,b,α ∈ C, they all have a,b 2 the basis {x |k ∈ Z} such that c acts trivially, and for n,k ∈ Z, k A : L x = (a+k +bn)x , (1.7) a,b n k k+n A(α) : L x = (k +n)x (k 6= 0), L x = n(n+α)x , (1.8) n k k+n n 0 n B(α) : L x = kx (k 6= −n), L x = −n(n+α)x . (1.9) n k k+n n −n 0 The main results of this paper are presented in the following theorem. Theorem 1.3 (i) An irreducibleHarish-Chandramodule overL[s]is eithera highest/lowest weight module or a uniformly bounded one. (ii) A module of the intermediate series over L[0] is simply a module of the intermediate series over Vir. (iii) A module V of the intermediate series over L[1] such that S acts nontrivially on V is 2 one of the modules A , B , C , D , A (α), A (α), B (α), B (α), C(α,α′), D(β,β′), a,b a,b a a 1 2 1 2 or one of their quotients for a, b, α, α′, β, β′ ∈ C, whose module structures are given as follows (the central element c acts as zero), where k ∈ 1Z, i,n ∈ Z, j,p ∈ 1 +Z, 2 2 A : M x = 0, (1.10) a,b n k Y x = (a+i+2bp)x , Y x = 0, (1.11) p i i+p p j 1 L x = (a+i+bn)x , L x = a+j +(b+ )n x , (1.12) n i i+n n j j+n 2 B : M x = 0, (cid:0) (cid:1) (1.13) a,b n k Y x = 0, Y x = x , (1.14) p i p j j+p 1 L x = (a+i+bn)x , L x = a+j +(b+ )n x , (1.15) n i i+n n j j+n 2 C : M x = 0, (cid:0) (cid:1) (1.16) a n k Y x = (a+i)(a+i+2p)x , Y x = 0, (1.17) p i i+p p j 3 L x = (a+i)x , L x = (a+j + n)x , (1.18) n i i+n n j j+n 2 D : M x = 0, (1.19) a n k Y x = (a+i+p)(a+i−p)x , Y x = 0, (1.20) p i i+n p j 1 L x = (a+i− n)x , L x = (a+j +n)x , (1.21) n i i+n n j j+n 2 A (α) : M x = 0, (1.22) 1 n k 1 Ypxi = (−2 +i+p)xi+p, Ypxj = 0, Lnx21 = n(n+α)x12+n, (1.23) 1 1 1 1 L x = (− +i+ n)x , L x = (− +j +n)x (j 6= ), (1.24) n i i+n n j j+n 2 2 2 2 3 A (α) : M x = 0, (1.25) 2 n k Y x = ix , Y x = 0, L x = −n(n+α)x , (1.26) p i i+p p j n −n 0 1 L x = ix (i 6= −n), L x = (j + n)x , (1.27) n i i+n n j j+n 2 B (α) : M x = 0, (1.28) 1 n k Y x = 0, Y x = x , L x = n(n+α)x , (1.29) p i p j j+p n 0 n 3 L x = (i+n)x (i 6= 0), L x = (j + n)x , (1.30) n i i+n n j j+n 2 B (α) : M x = 0, (1.31) 2 n k Ypxi = 0, Ypxj = xj+p, Lnx1−n = −n(n+α)x1, (1.32) 2 2 1 1 1 1 L x = (− +i− n)x , L x = (− +j)x (j 6= −n), (1.33) n i i+n n j j+n 2 2 2 2 C(α,α′) : M x = −2nα′x , M x = 0 (k 6= −n), (1.34) n −n 0 n k Y x = i(i+2p)x , Y x = α′x , Y x = 0 (j 6= −p), (1.35) p i i+p p −p 0 p j 3 L x = −n(n+α)x , L x = ix (i6=−n), L x = (j+ n)x , (1.36) n −n 0 n i i+n n j j+n 2 1 1 D(β,β′) :Mnx21 =2nβ′xn+21, Mnxk=0(k6=2), Ypx12 =β′xp+21, Ypxj=0(j6=2), (1.37) 1 1 Ypxi = (−2 +i+p)(−2 +i−p)xi+n, Lnx21 = n(n+β)xn+21, (1.38) 1 1 1 1 L x = (− +i− n)x , L x = (− +j +n)x (j 6= ).

Proof of Theorem 1.3(i) TheproofofTheorem1.3willbedividedbyseverallemmas. LetV beanindecomposable module over L[s]. Since M and c are central elements, whose actions on V must be 0 constants. Thus from (1.6), we can simply regard the weight space as the eigenspace of L , 0 i.e., V = ⊕λ∈CVλ, where Vλ = {v ∈ V |L0v = λv} for λ ∈ C. Lemma 2.1 Fix an a ∈ C such that Va 6= 0. We have V = ⊕n∈1ZVn, where Vn = Va+n = 2 {v ∈ V |L v = (a+n)v} for n ∈ 1Z. 0 2 Proof. For any a ∈ C, denote V(a) = ⊕n∈1ZVa+n. From relations (1.1)–(1.5), one can 2 easily see that V(a) is an L[s]-submodule of V such that V = ⊕a∈C/1ZV(a) is a direct sum 2 of different V(a). Hence V = V(a) for some a ∈ C. (cid:3) 4 Lemma 2.2 Suppose V = ⊕a∈C/1ZV(a) is an irreducible Harish-ChandraL[s]-module with- 2 out highest and lowest weights. Then for any i ∈ Z∗, k ∈ 1Z, 2 L | ⊕L | ⊕Y | ⊕Y | : V → V ⊕V ⊕V ⊕V (2.1) i Vk i+1 Vk i+s Vk i+1+s Vk k k+i k+i+1 k+i+s k+i+1+s is injective. In particular, by taking i = −k (if k ∈ Z) or i = 1−k (if k ∈ 1+Z), we obtain 2 2 that dim V is uniformly bounded. k Proof. Suppose there exists some v ∈ V such that 0 k L v = L v = Y v = Y v = 0. (2.2) i 0 i+1 0 i+s 0 i+1+s 0 Without loss of generality, we can suppose i > 0. Note that when ℓ ≫ 0, we have ℓ = ai+b(i+1), ℓ+s = a′i+b′(i+s), ℓ = a′′(i+s)+b′′(i+1+s), for some a,b,a′,b′,a′′,b′′ ∈ N, from this and (1.1), (1.2) and (1.4), one can easily deduce that L ,Y ,M can be generated by L ,L ,Y ,Y . Therefore there exists some N > 0 ℓ s+ℓ ℓ i i+1 i+s i+1+s such that L v = Y v = M v = 0 for all ℓ ≥ N. ℓ 0 s+ℓ 0 ℓ 0 The rest of the proof is exactly similar to that of [9, Proposition 2.1]. (cid:3) Now Theorem 1.3(i) follows from Lemma 2.1. 3. Proofs of Theorem 1.3(ii) and (iii) From now on, we shall suppose V is a module of the intermediate series over L[s]. As in [7, 8], one sees that c acts trivially on V, so we can omit c in (1.1). First we prove Theorem 1.3(iii), i.e., for the original Schr¨odinger-Virasoro Lie algebra L[1]. 2 We shall first suppose that dimVk = 1 for all k ∈ 21Z and both V′ = ⊕k∈ZVk and V′′ = ⊕k∈1+ZVk are Vir-modules of the form Aa,b, a,b ∈ C (later on, we shall determine all 2 possible deformations). Therefore, we can choose a basis {x |k ∈ 1Z} of V such that k 2 Y x = f x , (3.1) p k p,k k+p M x = g x , (3.2) n k n,k k+n (a+k +bn)x if k ∈ Z, k+n L x = (3.3) n k ((a+k +b′n)xk+n if k ∈ 21 +Z, for some a, b, b′, f , g ∈ C, where k ∈ 1Z, p ∈ 1 +Z, n ∈ Z. p,k n,k 2 2 Lemma 3.1 b′ = b± 1 or (b,b′) ∈ (0, 3), (3,0), (1,−1), (−1,1) . 2 2 2 2 2 (cid:8) (cid:9) 5 Proof. If f = 0 for all p ∈ 1 + Z, k ∈ 1Z, then from (1.4), we also obtain g = 0 for p,k 2 2 n,k all n ∈ Z, k ∈ 1Z, and so S acts trivially on V. Thus there exists some p ∈ 1 + Z and 2 0 2 k ∈ 1Z such that f 6= 0. Replacing a by a + 1 if necessary (which exchanges V′ and 0 2 p0,k0 2 V′′), we can always suppose f 6= 0 for some p ∈ 1 +Z, k ∈ Z. Then from (1.2), we see p0,k0 0 2 0 that for every p ∈ 1 +Z, 2 f 6= 0 for infinitely many k ∈ Z. (3.4) p,k For any m, n ∈ Z, p ∈ 1 +Z, k ∈ Z, applying 2 m+n n m (p− )[L ,[L ,Y ]] = (p− )(n+p− )[L ,Y ] (3.5) m n p m+n p 2 2 2 to x , using (3.1), (3.3) and comparing the coefficients of x , we obtain k k+p+m+n m+n (p− ) (a+k +p+b′n)(a+k +p+n+b′m)f p,k 2 −(a(cid:16)+k +bn)(a+k +p+n+b′m)f p,k+n −(a+k +bm)(a+k +p+m+b′n)f p,k+m +(a+k +bm)(a+k +m+bn)f p,k+m+n n m (cid:17) = (p− )(n+p− ) (a+k +p+b′m+b′n)f −(a+k +bm+bn)f . (3.6) p,k p,k+m+n 2 2 (cid:16) (cid:17) In the above equation, replacing m, n, k by (i) m, m, k−m, (ii) −m, −m, k+m and (iii) m, −m, k, respectively, we obtain the following three equations: m m (p− )(p+ ) a+k +(2b−1)m 2 2 (cid:16) (cid:0) (cid:1) +(p−m) a+k +(b−1)m (a+k +bm) f p,k+m (cid:17) −2(p−m(cid:0)) a+k +(b−1)m(cid:1) (a+k +p+b′m)f p,k + (p−m)(cid:0)a+k +p+(b′ −(cid:1)1)m (a+k +p+b′m) (cid:16) m (cid:0) m (cid:1) −(p− )(p+ ) a+k +p+(2b′ −1)m f = 0, (3.7) p,k−m 2 2 (cid:17) (cid:0) (cid:1) (p+m) a+k +p−(b′ −1)m (a+k +p−b′m) (cid:16) (cid:0) m m (cid:1) −(p+ )(p− ) a+k +p−(2b′ −1)m f p,k+m 2 2 (cid:17) −2(p+m) a+k −(cid:0)(b−1)m (a+k +p−(cid:1)b′m)f p,k m m (cid:0) (cid:1) + (p+ )(p− ) a+k −(2b−1)m 2 2 (cid:16) (cid:0) (cid:1) +(p+m) a+k −(b−1)m (a+k −bm) f = 0, (3.8) p,k−m (cid:17) (cid:0) (cid:1) 6 (a+k +bm) a+k +p−(b′ −1)m f p,k+m − (a(cid:0)+k +p−b′m) a+k(cid:1)+p+(b′ −1)m (cid:16) m 3m (cid:0) (cid:1) +(p+ )( −p)+(a+k +bm) a+k −(b−1)m f p,k 2 2 (cid:17) +(a+k −bm) a+k +p+(b′ −1)m(cid:0) f = 0. (cid:1) (3.9) p,k−m Regard (3.7)–(3.9) as a system of li(cid:0)near equations on the(cid:1)unknown variables f , f p,k+m p,k and f . Denote by ∆(p,k,m) the coefficient determinant. By (3.4), we see that for any p,k−m pairs (p,m) ∈ (1 +Z)×Z, there exist infinitely many integers k such that ∆(p,k,m) = 0. 2 Since ∆(p,k,m) is a polynomial on p, k, m, we obtain that 1 ∆(p,k,m) = 0 for all p ∈ +Z, k, m ∈ Z. (3.10) 2 It is a little lengthy but straightforward to compute (one can simply use Mathematica to solve a system of linear equations without problem) m6 ∆(p,k,m) = ∆ (∆ (a+k)p+∆ m2 +∆ p2), 0 1 2 3 64 where ∆ = (2b−2b′ −1)(2b−2b′ +1), 0 ∆ = 18(2b+2b′ −3)(2b+2b′ −1), 1 ∆ = 4(b+b′ −1)(−3b−4b2 +4b3 −9b′ +4bb′ +4b2b′ +12b′2 −4bb′2 −4b′3), 2 ∆ = 27−156b+152b2 −16b3 −16b4 −180b′ +328bb′ −80b2b′ 3 −32b3b′ +240b′2 +240b′2 −176bb′2 −112b′3 +32bb′3 +16b′4. It is easy to see that (3.10) holds if and only if ∆ = 0 or ∆ = ∆ = ∆ = 0, 0 1 2 3 if and only if 1 3 3 1 1 b′ = b± or (b, b′) ∈ (0, ), ( , 0), (1, − ) or (− , 1) . (3.11) 2 2 2 2 2 (cid:8) (cid:9) (Note that from ∆ = 0, one obtains that b′ = 3 −b or 1 −b, then from ∆ = ∆ = 0 one 1 2 2 2 3 can solve b.) Thus this lemma follows. (cid:3) By replacing a by a + 1 (then (3.4) does not necessarily hold) if necessary (which ex- 2 changes V′ and V′′), we can always suppose Re(b′) ≥ Re(b) (where Re(b) is the real part of the complex number b). Thus we only need to consider the cases 1 3 1 b′ = b+ or (b,b′) ∈ (0, ), (− ,1) . (3.12) 2 2 2 (cid:8) (cid:9) We shall now consider all the cases given in (3.12) one by one. 7 Case 1 b′ = b+ 1. 2 We need to determine f , g defined in (3.1) and (3.2), where n ∈ Z, p ∈ 1 +Z and p,k n,k 2 k ∈ 1Z. From the relation [Y ,Y ]x = (p−m)M x for m,p ∈ 1 +Z, k ∈ 1Z, we only 2 m p k m+p k 2 2 need to determine f . p,k Lemma 3.2 For any m, k ∈ Z, p ∈ 1 +Z, 2 (a+k +2bp)f = (a+k +m+2bp)f . (3.13) p,k+m p,k Proof. Using (3.7) and (3.8) to cancel f , one can obtain (or simply using Mathematica) p,k−m that (3.13) holds under the following condition ∆ (k,m) = (a+k)(1−4b)+(1+6b)(b−1)p m2 1 (cid:16) (cid:17) +6(a+k)2p+8(a+k)(1−b)p2 +4(1−b)p3 6= 0. (3.14) Next we want to prove that (3.13) holds under the condition ∆ (k) = (a+k)(1−4b)+(1+6b)(b−1)p 6= 0. (3.15) 2 Suppose (3.15) holds. Then ∆ (k + m′,m − m′) is a polynomial on m′ of degree 3 (if 1 b 6= 1) or of degree 2 (if b = 1, in this case the coefficient of m′2 in ∆ (k +m′,m−m′) is 4 4 1 (1+6b)(b−1)p+6p = (6− 5)p 6= 0 since p ∈ 1 +Z), and ∆ (k,m′) is a polynomial on m′ 8 2 1 of degree 2. Thus we can find some m′ such that (a+k +m′ +2bp)∆ (k +m′,m−m′)∆ (k,m′) 6= 0, 1 1 in particular, condition (3.14) holds for the two triples (k+m′,m−m′,p), (k,m′,p). Thus (3.13) holds for these two triples, and one has a+k +2bp (a+k +2bp)fp,k+m = a+k +m′ +2bp(a+(k +m′)+2bp)fp,(k+m′)+(m−m′) a+k +2bp = a+k +m′ +2bp(a+(k +m′)+(m−m′)+2bp)fp,k+m′ a+k +m+2bp = a+k +m′ +2bp(a+k +2bp)fp,k+m′ = (a+k +m+2bp)f . (3.16) p,k Thus (3.13) holds under condition (3.15). Now for any p,k,m, choose m′ such that (a+k +m′ +2bp)∆ (k +m′) 6= 0. (3.17) 2 This follows by noting that if b 6= 1 then ∆ (k+m′) is a polynomial on m′ of degree 1, and 4 2 if b = 1 then ∆ (k + m′) = (1 + 6b)(b − 1)p = −15p 6= 0 (since p ∈ 1 + Z). Now (3.17) 4 2 8 2 8 implies that we have all equalities of (3.16) except the last equality. But the last equality also follows by writing fp,k as fp,(k+m′)+(−m′) and using (3.13) with the pair (k,m) being replaced by (k +m′,−m′) (condition (3.15) holds for this pair). (cid:3) For any m ∈ Z, p ∈ 1+Z, k ∈ 1Z, applying [L ,Y ] = (p−m)Y to x and comparing 2 2 m p 2 p+m k the coefficients of x , one has k+m+p (a+k +bm)f −(a+k +p+b′m)f = m−2pf ifk ∈ Z, p,m+k p,k 2 m+p,k (3.18) ((a+k +b′m)f −(a+k +p+bm)f = m−2pf ifk ∈ 1 +Z. p,m+k p,k 2 m+p,k 2 Taking m = p−n in (3.18) and using b′ = b+ 1, one has 2 p−n p−3n (a+k +bp−bn)f −(a+k +n+bp−bn+ )f = f . (3.19) n,p−n+k n,k p,k 2 2 Using (3.13), one has (a+k +2bn)f = (a+k +p−n+2bn)f . (3.20) n,k+p−n n,k Then using (3.19) together with (3.13) and (3.20), we obtain (p−3n)(a+k +2bp) (a+k +2bn)f −(a+k +m+2bp)f = 0. (3.21) p,k+m n,k (cid:0) (cid:1) Letting m = j −k in (3.21), one has (p−3n)(a+k +2bp) (a+k +2bn)f −(a+j +2bp)f = 0. (3.22) p,j n,k (cid:0) (cid:1) Lemma 3.3 For any k, j ∈ Z, n, p ∈ 1 +Z, one has 2 (a+k +2bn)f = (a+j +2bp)f . (3.23) p,j n,k Furthermore, for any j ∈ Z, p ∈ 1 +Z, f can be written as 2 p,j f = (a+j +2bp)f , (3.24) p,j 0 for some f ∈ C. 0 Proof. Equation (3.24) follows from (3.23) by fixing n ,k such that a+k +bn 6= 0 and 0 0 0 0 letting f = fn0,k0 . It remains to prove (3.23). If (p−3n)(a+k +2bp) 6= 0, then (3.23) 0 a+k0+bn0 follows from (3.22). Next suppose (p−3n)(a+k+2bp) = 0. Choose n ∈ 1 +Z and k ∈ Z 0 2 0 such that (p−3n )(a+k +2bp) 6= 0 and (n−3n )(a+k +2bn) 6= 0. 0 0 0 0 Then by (3.22), (a + k + 2bn )f = (a + j + 2bp)f and also (a + k + 2bn)f = 0 0 p,j n0,k0 n0,k0 (a+k +2bn )f . Thus (3.23) also holds. This proves the lemma. (cid:3) 0 0 n,k As for the case k ∈ 1 +Z, we have the following lemma. 2 9 Lemma 3.4 For any m,k,p ∈ 1 +Z, 2 f = d . (3.25) p,k 0 Proof. First suppose b 6= 0. We want to prove 1 f21,k = d0 for k ∈ 2 +Z. (3.26) Applying [L1,Y21] = 0 to xk for k ∈ 12 +Z and using b′ = b+ 21, we obtain 1 1 (a+k +b+ )f1 −f1 (a+k +b+ ) = 0. (3.27) 2 2,k 2,k+1 2 If a+b ∈/ Z, then a+k+b+ 1 6= 0 for all k ∈ 1 +Z, thus (3.27) implies f1 is a constant, 2 2 2,k denoted by d . Thus (3.26) holds in this case. Assume that a + b ∈ Z. If necessary, by 0 shifting the index k of x by an integer (which does not change V′, V′′), we can suppose k a+b = 0. Then (3.27) shows f1,1 if k > 0, f1 = 2 2 (3.28) ,k 2 ( f1,−1 if k < 0. 2 2 Applying [L−1,Y12] = Y−21 to xk, we obtain f−12,k = (a+k+21−b)f12,k−f21,k−1(a+k−(b+21)), which together with (3.28) gives (using a = −b) f1 1 if k > 1, 2,2 2 f−12,k = (1−2b)f21,12 +2bf21,−12 if k = 12, (3.29) f21,−21 if k ≤ −12. Applying [L1,Y−1] = −Y1 to x1, using (3.28) and (3.29), we obtain 2 2 2 1 1 1 1 (1−2b)f21,12 +2bf12,−21 = −f12,12 = (a+ 2 − 2 +b)f−12,12 −f−21,23(a+ 2 +b+ 2), which implies f1,1 = f1,−1 since a = −b 6= 0. This together with (3.28) gives (3.26). 2 2 2 2 Now for any 2 6= p ∈ 1 +Z, by replacing (n,p) by (p− 1, 1) in (1.2) and applying it to 3 2 2 2 x , one can easily obtain f = d . If p = 2, choosing some n ∈ Z, p ∈ 1 + Z such that k p,k 0 3 2 n+ p = 23 and p − n2 6= 0, we can again obtain f32,k = d0. This proves (3.25) for the case b 6= 0. Now suppose b = 0. Similar to the proof of (3.13), for any m,n ∈ Z, k,p ∈ 1 +Z, one 2 has f = f , (3.30) p,k+m p,k 10
