    The discriminant expressed as a q-expansion: Δ(z) = q * ∏' (1 - q ^ (n + 1)) ^ 24.

    The modular discriminant is non-vanishing on the upper half-plane.

    The discriminant is invariant under T : z ↦ z + 1, i.e., Δ(z + 1) = Δ(z).

    The transformation formula for η under S : z ↦ -1 / z: we have η(-1 / z) = (√I)⁻¹ · √z · η(z) on the upper half-plane.

    The discriminant satisfies the modular transformation for S : z ↦ -1 / z: we have Δ(-1 / z) = z ^ 12 · Δ(z).

    The modular discriminant Δ as a cusp form of weight 12 and level 1.
