Bolza quaternion order and asymptotics of systoles along congruence subgroups
We give a detailed description of the arithmetic Fuchsian group of the Bolza
surface and the associated quaternion order. This description enables us to
show that the corresponding principal congruence covers satisfy the bound
sys(X) > 4/3 log g(X) on the systole, where g is the genus. We also exhibit the
Bolza group as a congruence subgroup, and calculate out a few examples of
"Bolza twins" (using magma). Like the Hurwitz triplets, these correspond to the
factoring of certain rational primes in the ring of integers of the invariant
trace field of the surface. We exploit random sampling combined with the
Reidemeister-Schreier algorithm as implemented in magma to generate these
surfaces.Comment: 35 pages, to appear in Experimental Mathematic
Simple closed geodesics and the study of Teichm\"uller spaces
The goal of the chapter is to present certain aspects of the relationship
between the study of simple closed geodesics and Teichm\"uller spaces.Comment: to appear in Handbook of Teichm\"uller theory, vol II
