Abstract

In our previous paper, we introduced a hyperbolic jigsaw construction and constructed infinitely many non-commensurable, non-uniform, non-arithmetic lattices of PSL(2,R)\mathrm{PSL}(2, \mathbb{R}) with cusp set Q{}\mathbb{Q} \cup \{\infty\} (called pseudomodular groups by Long and Reid), thus answering a question posed by Long and Reid. In this paper, we continue with our study of these jigsaw groups exploring questions of arithmeticity, pseudomodularity, and also related pseudo-euclidean and continued fraction algorithms arising from these groups. We also answer another question of Long and Reid by demonstrating a recursive formula for the tessellation of the hyperbolic plane arising from Weierstrass groups which generalizes the well-known "Farey addition" used to generate the Farey tessellation.
