Veech Groups and Triangulations of Half-Dilation Pillowcases
Abstract
In this paper we consider the symmetries of triangulable half-dilation structures on the sphere with four singularities. We show that all such surfaces can be produced by a tetrahedral construction. Using this construction, we calculate each such surface's symmetry group in PSL(2, R) called the Veech group.
