Picard modular group
In
mathematics
, a
Picard
modular group
,
studied
by, is a
group
of the form
SU
, where
L
is a
3-dimensional
lattice
over the
ring of integers
of an
imaginary quadratic field
and
J
is a
hermitian form
on
L
of
signature
. Picard
modular
groups
act
on the
unit sphere
in
C
2
and the
quotient
is called a
Picard modular surface
.
