The Appell–Humbert theorem identifies the positive Hermitian form with a holomorphic line bundle whose First Chern class is represented, in our linear-first convention, by
Its integral over the square fundamental domain is , so . In particular the oriented Chern pairing is ; using without adjusting the Hermitian convention would give the wrong sign.
The complex torus has a nowhere-vanishing differential , so its canonical divisor is trivial and its genus is one. A nonzero section of a line bundle of negative degree would have an effective divisor of negative degree, which is impossible. Thus . The Riemann-Roch theorem and Serre duality give
Therefore . The choice of semicharacter of a complex lattice changes the degree-zero component of the line bundle, but not this calculation.
For the intended complex unit circle, put and , with . The complete family of semicharacters of a complex lattice is
To obtain this, the identity at zero gives ; on each coordinate axis the alternating form vanishes, so and , also for negative integers. Combining the axes gives the factor . Conversely, for , , the quotient of the proposed values is , which equals . Hence every displayed formula is a semicharacter of a complex lattice and none are missing.
The original PDF actually puts in its definition of . Under that literal reading , so there are exactly four solutions, given by the same formula with . Under either reading the specified choice is .
Pulling back the factors of automorphy in the Appell–Humbert theorem by , where , pulls back both the Hermitian form and the semicharacter of a complex lattice. Thus the explicit answer is
Writing makes the second formula completely explicit:
The second equality is an equality of signs, obtained by reducing the exponents modulo . The Hermitian form follows from . Its integer parameter equals the norm of the Gaussian integer, agreeing with the degree of this nonzero isogeny of elliptic curves. The formulas also include , when the pulled-back line bundle is trivial.
