Line 7:

The theta function of a [[Lattice (discrete subgroup)|lattice]] is then a [[holomorphic function]] on the [[upper half-plane]]. Furthermore, the theta function of an even [[unimodular lattice]] of rank&nbsp;''n'' is actually a [[modular form]] of weight&nbsp;''n''/2. The theta function of an integral lattice is often written as a power series in <math>q = e^{2i\pi\tau}</math> so that the coefficient of ''q''^''n'' gives the number of lattice vectors of norm&nbsp;2''n''.
