Let $G$ be a finitely generated Fuchsian group, and let $\mathcal{F}$ denote the Dirichlet fundamental domain of $G$ with respect to $0$ in the Poincaré disc model. Assume throughout that $\mathcal{F}$ is non-compact.
I am interested in properties of $G$, and how these properties are connected with Poincaré's theorem. Here are my questions:
Is $G$ the free product of elementary hyperbolic, parabolic and elliptic subgroups? It is true for the modular group PSL(2,Z). Moreover, it holds under the stronger assumptions in 2).
Assume that $G$ has no elliptic elements. Then $G$ is free (because $G$ is fundamental group of a non-compact surface) and thus, $\mathcal{F}$ has vertices only at the boundary of hyperbolic space. Can we derive this property of the vertices from Poincaré's theorem?
Assume that $G$ is of the second kind (that is, the limit set of $G$ is not equal to the boundary of hyperbolic space). Then in particular $\mathcal{F}$ is non-compact. Is it true that the sides of $\mathcal{F}$ are pairwise disjoint, except (possibly) the sides paired by elliptic elements?
UPDATE: Sam Nead answered 3) in the negative. Is the answer in 3) also negative if we allow an arbitrary reference point for the Dirichlet fundamental domain?
