2 Definition

This module develops the rewriting and basis constructions behind the subgroup calculations. It tracks words and relations through the chosen transversal to obtain the required presentation or basis statements.

The period-coordinate quotient used in the abelianized presentation is finite.

The period abelianization attached to the Fuchsian signature is finite, because it is obtained from a finite-rank period-coordinate group by imposing finite period relations.
