Algebraic refinement conjecture for the multivariable theta function
Let be a symmetric bilinear form and let be the holomorphic section of the complex Looijenga line bundle over the complex universal elliptic curve, with its algebraic integral refinement. Algebraic theta-function refinement conjecture. The section refines to an algebraic section of . This would provide an integral algebraic refinement of the analytic multivariable theta function and support the proposed connection between derived Looijenga line bundles and TMF.
