Zariski density and computing with $S$-integral groups

Group Theory 2023-03-14 v1

Abstract

We generalize our methodology for computing with Zariski dense subgroups of SL(n,Z)\mathrm{SL}(n, \mathbb{Z}) and Sp(n,Z)\mathrm{Sp}(n, \mathbb{Z}), to accommodate input dense subgroups HH of SL(n,Q)\mathrm{SL}(n, \mathbb{Q}) and Sp(n,Q)\mathrm{Sp}(n, \mathbb{Q}). A key task, backgrounded by the Strong Approximation theorem, is computing a minimal congruence overgroup of HH. Once we have this overgroup, we may describe all congruence quotients of HH. The case n=2n=2 receives particular attention.
