Conway--Norton monstrous moonshine conjecture

Let M\mathbb{M} be the monster, and for each gMg\in\mathbb{M} let TgT_g be its monstrous McKay--Thompson series. A normalized principal modulus is a generator of the function field of a genus-zero modular curve with the standard normalization at infinity. Conway--Norton conjecture. For each gMg\in\mathbb{M} there is a specific group Γg<SL2(R)\Gamma_g<\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb{R}) such that TgT_g is the unique normalized principal modulus for Γg\Gamma_g. This is the principal-modulus, or genus-zero, property at the heart of monstrous moonshine; the statement is known as a consequence of the monstrous moonshine theorem.
