The principal congruence subgroup of the symplectic group over the integers

If we assume that $g \geq 2$, then it is known by a Theorem of Tits ( Tits, Jacques : Systèmes générateurs de groupes de congruence. (French. English summary) C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. A-B 283 (1976 …

Subgroups of Sp(2g,Z) that map onto all Sp(2g,Z/m)

The answer to your question as to whether $G=Sp_{2g}({\mathbb Z})$ is NO. $Sp_{2g}({\mathbb Z})$ contains a pro-finitely dense FREE subgroup (hence has infinite index) which is also finitely generat …

Subgroups of $SL_2(\mathbb R)$ which contain $SL_2(\mathbb Z)$ as a finite index subgroup

Even for $Sp_{2g}$ the only possibility is $Sp_{2g}(\mathbb{Z})$. To see this, suppose $\Gamma \subset Sp_{2g}(\mathbb{R})$ is a subgroup containing $Sp_{2g}(\mathbb{Z})$ as a finite index subgroup. S …
