triangle groups


Consider the following group presentation:

Δ(l,m,n)=a,b,c:a2,b2,c2,(ab)l,(bc)n,(ca)m

where l,m,n.

A group with this presentationMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath corresponds to a triangle; roughly, the generatorsPlanetmathPlanetmathPlanetmath are reflections in its sides and its angles are π/l,π/m,π/n.

Denote by D(l,m,n) the subgroupMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath of index (http://planetmath.org/Coset) 2 in Δ(l,m,n), corresponding to preservation of of the triangle.

The D(l,m,n) are defined by the following presentation:

D(l,m,n)=x,y:xl,ym,(xy)n

Note that D(l,m,n)D(m,l,n)D(n,m,l), so D(l,m,n) is of the l,m,n.

Arising from the geometrical nature of these groups,

1/l+1/m+1/n>1

is called the spherical case,

1/l+1/m+1/n=1

is called the Euclidean case, and

1/l+1/m+1/n<1

is called the hyperbolic case

Groups either of the form Δ(l,m,n) or D(l,m,n) are referred to as triangle groups; groups of the form D(l,m,n) are sometimes refered to as von Dyck groups.
