Generating congruence subgroups of SL_n over totally imaginary number rings

Fix some $n \geq 3$. Let $k$ be an algebraic number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}$ and let $\alpha$ be an ideal of $\mathcal{O}$. Define $\text{SL}_n(\mathcal{O},\alpha)$ to be the ...

Generators of special linear group of a projective module over a number ring

Let $\mathcal{O}$ be the ring of integers in an algebraic number field $K$ and let $M$ be a rank-$n$ projective $\mathcal{O}$-module. By definition, this means that $M \otimes K \cong K^n$, so the ...

Cardinality or covolume of $S$-units in quaternion algebras

Let $D=\left(\frac{a,b}{\mathbb{Q}}\right)$ be a quaternion algebra over $\mathbb{Q}$. Suppose $D$ is ramified at a finite set $S$ of places and $\infty\in S$. It is known that the $S$-units (the unit ...

Commensurability of arithmetic, irreducible, nonuniform lattices

Let $n \in \mathbb{Z}_{\geq 2}$ be arbitrary. Let $r_1$ and $r_2$ be arbitrary elements of $\mathbb{Z}_{\geq 0}$ that satisfy $r_1 + r_2 > 0.$ Let $G := {\rm SL}_n(\mathbb{R})^{r_1} \times {\rm SL}...
