For a rational matrix of positive determinant, use the positive real power of in the displayed slash operator for modular forms. It satisfies by the automorphy factor identity and multiplicativity of the determinant. It agrees with the usual operator on the modular group. The determinant factor is essential for the stated normalization of the Hecke operators.
