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 ${\rm PSp}(2,1,\mathcal{H})$…

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…

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.

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.

We present a systematic effective method to construct coarse fundamental domains for the action of the Picard modular groups $PU(2,1,\mathcal{O}_d)$ where $\mathcal{O}_d$ has class number one, i.e. $d=1,2,3,7,11,19,43,67,163$. The…

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 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…

We compute the Picard group of the moduli stack of stable hyperelliptic curves of any genus, exhibiting explicit and geometrically meaningful generators and relations.

The goal of the article is to prove that four explicitly given transformations, two Heisenberg translations, a rotation and an involution generate the Picard modular group with Gaussian integers acting on the two dimensional complex…

The goal of this article is to show that five explicitly given transformations, a rotation, two screw Heisenberg rotations, a vertical translation and an involution generate the Euclidean Picard modular groups with coefficient in the…

We calculate the Picard group, over the integers, of the Hilbert scheme of smooth, irreducible, non-degenerate curves of degree $d$and genus $g \geq 4$ in ${\Bbb P}^r$, in the case when $d \geq 2g+1 $ and $r \leq d-g$. We express the…

Nous calculons le groupe de Picard de l'espace des modules $\Theta_{\planp}(d)$ des th\^eta-caract\'eristiques des courbes planes (non forc\'ement lisses) de degr\'e $d$. Nous montrons que pour $d\ge 6$, le groupe de Picard de la composante…

The complete classification of the finite simple groups that are $(2,3)$-generated is a problem which is still open only for orthogonal groups. Here, we construct $(2, 3)$-generators for the finite odd-dimensional orthogonal groups…

We consider a certain hybridization construction which produces a subgroup of ${\rm PU}(n,1)$ from a pair of lattices in ${\rm PU}(n-1,1)$. Among the Picard modular groups ${\rm PU}(2,1,\mathcal{O}_d)$, we show that the hybrid of pairs of…

In this work, we systematically derive explicit expressions for the Poincar\'e Group generators on arbitrary-rank tensors and spinor-tensors in $D=3+1$ and $D=2+1$ spacetimes, thus generalizing previous works in the literature for the…

Mark and Paupert devised a general method for obtaining presentations for arithmetic non-cocompact lattices, $\Gamma$, in isometry groups of negatively curved symmetric spaces. The method involves a classical theorem of Macbeath applied to…

For a positive integer $N$ divisible by $4,5,6,7$ or $9$, let $\mathcal{O}_{1,N}(\mathbb{Q})$ be the ring of weakly holomorphic modular functions for the congruence subgroup $\Gamma_1(N)$ with rational Fourier coefficients. We present…

We construct $(2,3)$-generators for the finite $8$-dimensional orthogonal groups, proving the following results: the groups $\Omega_8^+(q)$ and $P\Omega_8^+(q)$ are $(2,3)$-generated if and only if $q\geq 4$; the groups $\Omega_8^-(q)$ and…

For an odd prime p, we determine a minimal set of topological generators of the pro-p Iwahori subgroup of a split reductive group G over Z\_p. In the simple adjoint case and for any sufficiently large regular prime p, we also construct…

We prove that the groups PSL_n(q) are (2,3)-generated for n=9,10 or 11 and all q. Actually, we find out explicit generators x_n and y_n of respective orders 2 and 3, for the groups SL_n(q).
