TORSION IN ARITHMETIC FUCHSIAN GROUPS
Colin M. MacLachlan · Journal of the London Mathematical Society · 2006
In this paper a formula is derived for the number of conjugacy classes of cyclic subgroups of finite order in those arithmetic Fuchsian groups which are of minimal covolume in their commensurability class. The formula is entirely in terms of the number theoretic data defining the commensurability class of the arithmetic group so that, in particular, any two such groups of minimal covolume in the class, will be isomorphic.
