Resumen de Defining equations of modular curves
Yifan Yang
We obtain defining equations of modular curves X0(N), X1(N), and X(N) by explicitly constructing modular functions using generalized Dedekind eta functions. As applications, we describe a method of obtaining a basis for the space of cusp forms of weight 2 on a congruence subgroup. We also use our model of X0(37) to find explicit modular parameterization of rational elliptic curves of conductor 37.
