Abstract

In this paper we present generalized edge-pairings for the family of hyperbolic tessellations \(\{10\lambda ,2\lambda \}\), with the purpose to obtain the corresponding discrete group of isometries. These tessellations have greater density packing than the self-dual tessellations \(\{4\lambda ,4\lambda \}\) implying that the associated codes achieve the least error probability, or equivalently, that these codes are optimum codes.

Notes

  1. \(SU(2,\mathbb {C})\) is the special unitary group.

  2. The stabilizer of an element \(z\in \mathbb {D}^{2}\) is the subgroup \(G_{z}=\{T\in \varGamma _{p}:T(z)=z\}\).

  3. If the condition (21) is not satisfied, then one can not guarantee that the group \(\varGamma _{p}\) is discrete.

  4. This implies that the internal angles at the corresponding vertices of the polygon \(P_{p}\) is \(\frac{2\pi }{q}=\frac{\pi }{\lambda }\).

  5. For \(\lambda =4\), we order \(C_{2}\) in the form \(C_{2}=\{v_{5},\) \(v_{10},\) \(v_{15},\) \(v_{20},\) \(v_{25},\) \(v_{30},\) \(v_{35},\) \(v_{40}\}\).
