Abstract: In this paper we study the commensurability of hyperbolic Coxeter groups of finite covolume, providing three necessary conditions for commensurability. Moreover we tackle different topics around the field of definition of a hyperbolic Coxeter group: which possible fields can arise, how this field determines a range of possible dihedral angles of a Coxeter polyhedron and we provide two new sets of generators for quasi-arithmetic groups. This work is a concise version of chapters 4 and 5 of the author's Ph.D. thesis.

Review text

In this paper, the author studies the problem of commensurability of hyperbolic Coxeter groups of finite covolume. These are discrete subgroups of \(\mathrm{Isom}(\mathbb{H}_{n})\) generated by finitely many reflections in the bounding hyperplanes of Coxeter polyhedra, which are polyhedra whose angles are integral submultiples of \(\pi\). In [\textit{È. B. Vinberg}, Math. USSR Sb. 1, 429--444 (1968; Zbl 0166.16303)], a field of cycles (Vinberg field) and a quadratic form (Vinberg form) are associated to every hyperbolic Coxeter group. The main result in the paper under review is the following necessary conditions for commensurability: if \(\Gamma_{1}\) and \(\Gamma_{2}\) are two commensurable cofinite hyperbolic Coxeter groups acting on \(\mathbb{H}^{n}\), then their Vinberg fields coincide and the two associated Vinberg forms are similar over this field. Moreover, the author provides two new sets of generators for the field of definition in case of quasi-arithmetic hyperbolic Coxeter groups.
