Abstract:

Using the theory of Belyĭ maps, we calculate the algebraic curves associated to the Fuchsian groups of signature $(1;e)$ that are commensurable with a triangle group, along with the Picard-Fuchs differential equations on these curves, which are related to pullbacks of hypergeometric differential equations. We focus particularly on the $(1;e)$-groups that are arithmetic.
