Section 3: Chains <strong>of</strong> Θ-<strong>Hodge</strong> <strong>Theaters</strong><br />

In the present §3, we construct chains <strong>of</strong> “Θ-<strong>Hodge</strong> theaters”. Each “Θ-<strong>Hodge</strong><br />

theater” is to be thought <strong>of</strong> as a sort <strong>of</strong> miniature model <strong>of</strong> the conventional<br />

scheme-theoretic arithmetic geometry that surrounds the theta function.<br />

This miniature model is formulated via the theory <strong>of</strong> Frobenioids [cf. [FrdI]; [FrdII];<br />

[EtTh], §3, §4, §5]. On the other hand, the link [cf. Corollary 3.7, (i)] between<br />

adjacent members <strong>of</strong> such chains is purely Frobenioid-theoretic, i.e., it lies outside<br />

the framework <strong>of</strong> ring theory/scheme theory. It is these chains <strong>of</strong> Θ-<strong>Hodge</strong> theaters<br />

that form the starting point <strong>of</strong> the theory <strong>of</strong> the present series <strong>of</strong> papers.<br />

Definition 3.1.<br />

We shall refer to as initial Θ-data any collection <strong>of</strong> data<br />

that satisfies the following conditions:<br />

(F/F, X F , l, C K , V, V bad<br />

mod, ɛ)<br />

(a) F is a number field such that √ −1 ∈ F ; F is an algebraic closure <strong>of</strong> F .<br />

def<br />

Write G F = Gal(F/F).<br />

(b) X F is a once-punctured elliptic curve [i.e., a hyperbolic curve <strong>of</strong> type<br />

(1, 1)] over F that admits stable reduction over all v ∈ V(F ) non .WriteE F<br />

for the elliptic curve over F determined by X F [so X F ⊆ E F ];<br />

X F → C F<br />

for the hyperbolic orbicurve [cf. §0] over F obtained by forming the stacktheoretic<br />

quotient <strong>of</strong> X F by the unique F -involution [i.e., automorphism<br />

<strong>of</strong> order two] “−1” <strong>of</strong> X F ; F mod ⊆ F for the field <strong>of</strong> moduli [cf., e.g.,<br />

def<br />

[AbsTopIII], Definition 5.1, (ii)] <strong>of</strong> X F ; V mod = V(F mod ). Then<br />

V good<br />

mod<br />

V bad<br />

mod ⊆ V mod<br />

is a nonempty set <strong>of</strong> nonarchimedean valuations <strong>of</strong> F mod <strong>of</strong> odd residue<br />

characteristic over which X F has bad [i.e., multiplicative] reduction. Write<br />

def<br />

= V mod \ V bad<br />

def<br />

mod<br />

; V(F )□ = V □ mod × V mod<br />

V(F )for□ ∈{bad, good};<br />

Π XF<br />

def<br />

def<br />

= π 1 (X F ) ⊆ Π CF = π 1 (C F )<br />

Δ X<br />

def<br />

= π 1 (X F × F F ) ⊆ Δ C<br />

def<br />

= π 1 (C F × F F )<br />

for the étale fundamental groups [relative to appropriate choices <strong>of</strong> basepoints]<br />

<strong>of</strong> X F , C F , X F × F F , C F × F F . [Thus, we have natural exact<br />

sequences 1 → Δ (−) → Π (−)F → G F → 1 for “(−)” taken to be either<br />

“X” or“C”.] Here, we suppose further that the extension F/F mod is<br />

Galois, and that the 2 · 3-torsion points <strong>of</strong> E F are rational over F .<br />

(c) l is a prime number ≥ 5 such that the outer homomorphism<br />

G F → GL 2 (F l )
