On a Conjecture of Magnus on the Hurwitz Monodromy Group.
This is a small survey paper about connections between the arithmetic and geometric properties in the case of arithmetic Fuchsian groups.
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 is a non-elementary finitely generated group and a sequence of discrete and faithful representations, then the geometric limit of is a discrete subgroup of . We generalize this result by...
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...
A compact Riemann surface X of genus g > 1 is said to be p-hyperelliptic if X admits a conformal involution ϱ, called a p-hyperelliptic involution, for which X/ϱ is an orbifold of genus p. If in addition X admits a q-hypereliptic involution then we say that X is pq-hyperelliptic. We give a necessary and sufficient condition on p,q and g for existence of a pq-hyperelliptic Riemann surface of genus g. Moreover we give some conditions under which p- and q-hyperelliptic involutions of a pq-hyperelliptic...
