We extend this to a functorial family of objects corresponding to elliptic curves with level structure and modular forms on them. Along the way, we produce a natural way to restrict to the cusps, providing multiplicative maps from Tmf with level structure to forms of K-theory. In particular, this allows us to construct a connective spectrum tmf_0(3) consistent with properties suggested by Mahowald and Rezk. This is accomplished using the machinery of logarithmic structures. We construct a sheaf of locally even-periodic elliptic cohomology theories, equipped with highly structured multiplication, on the log-\\'etale site of the moduli of elliptic curves. Evaluating this sheaf on modular curves produces Tmf with level structure.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2013-12-28T05:22:51.000Z", "comment": "42 pages", "journal": null, "doi": null }, { "version": "v2", "updated": "2015-02-03T21:17:02.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "55N34", "55P43", "11F23", "11G18", "14F20" ], "keywords": [ "topological modular forms", "level structure", "cohomology theory", "elliptic curves", "modular curves produces tmf" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 53, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2013arXiv1312.7394H" } } }
