Modular embeddings and rigidity for Fuchsian groups

Robert A. Kucharczyk (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

We prove a rigidity theorem for semiarithmetic Fuchsian groups: If Γ₁, Γ₂ are two semiarithmetic lattices in PSL(2,ℝ ) virtually admitting modular embeddings, and f: Γ₁ → Γ₂ is a group isomorphism that respects the notion of congruence subgroups, then f is induced by an inner automorphism of PGL(2,ℝ ).

Non-maximal cyclic group actions on compact Riemann surfaces.

David Singerman, Paul Watson (1997)

Revista Matemática de la Universidad Complutense de Madrid

We say that a finite group G of automorphisms of a Riemann surface X is non-maximal in genus g if (i) G acts as a group of automorphisms of some compact Riemann surface Xg of genus g and (ii), for all such surfaces Xg , |Aut Xg| > |G|. In this paper we investigate the case where G is a cyclic group Cn of order n. If Cn acts on only finitely many surfaces of genus g, then we completely solve the problem of finding all such pairs (n,g).

On geometric convergence of discrete groups

Shihai Yang (2014)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

One of the basic questions in the Kleinian group theory is to understand both algebraic and geometric limiting behavior of sequences of discrete subgroups. In this paper we consider the geometric convergence in the setting of the isometric group of the real or complex hyperbolic space. It is known that if Γ is a non-elementary finitely generated group and ρ i : Γ SO ( n , 1 ) a sequence of discrete and faithful representations, then the geometric limit of ρ i ( Γ ) is a discrete subgroup of SO ( n , 1 ) . We generalize this result by...

On Macbeath-Singerman symmetries of Belyi surfaces with PSL(2,p) as a group of automorphisms

Ewa Tyszkowska (2003)

Open Mathematics

The famous theorem of Belyi states that the compact Riemann surface X can be defined over the number field if and only if X can be uniformized by a finite index subgroup Γ of a Fuchsian triangle group Λ. As a result such surfaces are now called Belyi surfaces. The groups PSL(2,q),q=p n are known to act as the groups of automorphisms on such surfaces. Certain aspects of such actions have been extensively studied in the literature. In this paper, we deal with symmetries. Singerman showed, using acertain...
