Abstract:
The problem of classification of $2 \times 2$ indefinite Hermitian matrices over orders in Clifford algebras is considered. The unit groups of these matrices are analogous to maximal arithmetic Fuchsian subgroups of ${\text {PSL}}(2,\mathfrak {o})$ where $\mathfrak {o}$ is an order in a quadratic number field.References
