ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF EVEN UNIMODULAR LATTICES WITH A COMPLEX STRUCTURE

This paper classifies the even unimodular lattices that have a structure as a Hermitian [Formula: see text]-lattice of rank r ≤ 12 for rings of integers in imaginary quadratic number fields K of class number 1. The Hermitian theta series of such a lattice is a Hermitian modular form of weight r for the full modular group, therefore we call them theta lattices. For arbitrary imaginary quadratic fields we derive a mass formula for the principal genus of theta lattices which is applied to show completeness of the classifications.
