Abstract
OCAMPO URIBE, OSCAR EDUARDO. Commensurator Subgroups of Surface Groups. Rev.colomb.mat. [online]. 2010, vol.44, n.1, pp.1-13. ISSN 0034-7426.
Let M be a surface, and let H be a subgroup of π1M. In this paper we study the commensurator subgroup C\\pi_1M(H) of π1M, and we extend a result of L. Paris and D. Rolfsen [7], when H is a geometric subgroup of π1M. We also give an application of commensurator subgroups to group representation theory. Finally, by considering certain closed curves on the Klein bottle, we apply a classification of these curves to self-intersection Nielsen theory.
