Abstract: For a number field K, we show that any S-arithmetic subgroup of SL_2(K) contains a subgroup of finite index generated by three elements if card(S)> 1.

Review text

For a number field \(K\), it is shown that any \(S\)-arithmetic subgroup of \(\text{SL}_2(K)\) contains a subgroup of finite index generated by 3 elements, if \(\text{card}(S)\geq 2\).
