Un groupe pseudo-modulaire est un groupe fuchsien, non-arithmétique et de coaire finie dont l'ensemble des pointes est . Long et Reid en ont construit un nombre fini en considérant les groupes fuchsiens qui uniformisent les tores à un trou, appelés groupes de Fricke. Nous démontrons ici qu'un groupe de Fricke, dont les pointes sont les nombres rationnels et l'infini, est pseudo-modulaire si et seulement si l'ensemble de ses pointes finies est dense dans le groupe des adèles finies de . Nous en déduisons, l'existence d'une infinité de groupes de Fricke à pointes rationnelles, qui ne sont ni pseudo-modulaires ni arithmétiques.
A pseudomodular group is a finite coarea non-arithmetic Fuchsian group whose set of cusps is . Long and Reid constructed finitely many of these by considering Fuchsian groups uniformizing one-cusped tori, i.e., Fricke groups. We show that a zonal (i.e., having a cusp at infinity) Fricke group with rational cusps is pseudomodular if and only if its set of finite cusps is dense in the finite adeles of , and that there are infinitely many Fricke groups with rational cusps that are neither pseudomodular nor arithmetic.
