In this paper, we prove that the Gauss--Picard modular group PU(3,1;Z[i])in three complex dimensions can be generated by five given transformations: two Heisenberg translations, two Heisenberg rotations and an involution. Indeed, our method…
We explicitly compute the ellitpic points and isotropy groups for the action of the Picard modular group over the Gaussian integers on 2-dimensional complex hyperbolic space.
Little is known about the generators system of the higher dimensional Picard modular groups. In this paper, we prove that the higher dimensional Eisenstein--Picard modular group $\mathbf{PU}(3,1;\mathbb{Z}[\omega_3])$ in three complex…
Our main goal in this paper is to construct the first explicit fundamental domain of the Picard modular group acting on the complex hyperbolic space ${\bf CH}^{2}$. The complex hyperbolic space is a Hermitian symmetric space, its bounded…
In this short note we use the presentations found in \cite{MP} and \cite{Po} to show that the Picard modular groups ${\rm PU}(2,1,\mathcal{O}_d)$ with $d=1,3,7$ (respectively the quaternion hyperbolic lattice ${\rm PSp}(2,1,\mathcal{H})$…
This work is a first step towards a theory of "$q$-deformed complex numbers". Assuming the invariance of the $q$-deformation under the action of the modular group I prove the existence and uniqueness of the operator of translations by~$i$…
We construct generators for modules of vector-valued Picard modular forms on a unitary group of type (2,1) over the Eisenstein integers. We also calculate eigenvalues of Hecke operators acting on cusp forms.
We use the description of the Picard modular surface for discriminant $-3$ as a moduli space of curves of genus $3$ to generate all vector-valued Picard modular forms from bi-covariants for the action of ${GL}_2$ on the space of pairs of…
This is an expository article about groups generated by two isometries of the complex hyperbolic plane.
The role of the modular group in the holonomy representation of (2+1)-dimensional quantum gravity is studied. This representation can be viewed as a "Heisenberg picture", and for simple topologies, the transformation to the ADM…
We provide a concrete criterion to determine whether or not two given elements of PU(2,1) can be written as products of real reflections, with one reflection in common. As an application, we show that the Picard modular groups ${\rm…
Heisenberg groups over algebras with central involution and their automorphism groups are constructed. The complex quaternion group algebra over a prime field is used as an example. Its subspaces provide finite models for each of the real…
The sister of Eisenstein-Picard modular group was described in [8]. In this paper we give a similar definition of the sister of the Euclidean-Picard modular group and find its generators by using a geometric method.
Consider the special linear group of degree $2$ over an arbitrary finite field, acting on the full space of $2 \times 2$-matrices by transpose. We explicitly construct a generating set for the corresponding modular matrix invariant ring,…
In this article we show how certain irreducible unitary representation $ \Pi_\lambda $ of the twisted Heisenberg group $ \He_\lambda^n(\C)$ leads to the twisted modulation spaces $ M_\lambda^{p,q}(\R^{2n}).$ These $ \Pi_\lambda $ also turn…
We determine explicit formulas for the bisectors used in constructing a Dirichlet fundamental domain in hyperbolic two and three space. They are compared with the isometric spheres employed in the construction of a Ford domain and used to…
