Triangle cover construction for Sunada surfaces

ID: triangle-cover-construction-for-sunada-surfaces

Let a finite group be generated by elements of exact orders whose product has exact order , with . The epimorphism from the hyperbolic triangle group sending its generators to these elements has torsion-free kernel. Its quotient of the hyperbolic plane is a closed surface with a action. A subgroup acts freely precisely when it meets no conjugate of a nonidentity power of the three elliptic generators. Free almost conjugate subgroups give isospectral manifolds by the Sunada theorem.
