Small hyperbolic polyhedra
Shawn Rafalski, Fairfield University
[Abstract] [PDF]
Abstract: Any polyhedral tiling of hyperbolic three-dimensional space gives rise to a discrete group of isometries of the space, generated by the reflections in the sides of the polyhedral tile. We will discuss the geometric and topological ideas used in the classification of the triangle subgroups (that is, subgroups generated by the reflections in the sides of a hyperbolic triangle) of these polyhedral reflection groups.
