Diamond operator

In number theory, the diamond operators 〈d〉 are operators acting on the space of modular forms for the group Γ₁(N), given by the action of a matrix (^{a b}
_{c d}) in Γ₀(N). The diamond operators form an abelian group and commute with the Hecke operators.

Unicode

In Unicode, the diamond operator is represented by the character U+22C4 ⋄ DIAMOND OPERATOR. ^[1]
