Fricke involution

In mathematics, a Fricke involution is the involution of the modular curve X₀(N) given by τ → –1/Nτ. It is named after Robert Fricke. The Fricke involution also acts on other objects associated with the modular curve, such as spaces of modular forms and the Jacobian J₀(N) of the modular curve.
