Hurwitz Quaternion Order - Principal Congruence Subgroups

Principal Congruence Subgroups

The principal congruence subgroup defined by an ideal is by definition the group

mod

namely, the group of elements of reduced norm 1 in equivalent to 1 modulo the ideal . The corresponding Fuchsian group is obtained as the image of the principal congruence subgroup under a representation to PSL(2,R).
