Abstract

There is a natural inclusion of SL2(Z) into SL2(Z[i]) , but it does not induce an injection of commutator factor groups (Abelianizations). In order to see where and how the 3 -torsion of the Abelianization of SL2(Z) disappears,we study a double cover of the amalgamated product decomposition SL2(Z)~=(Z/4Z)_(Z/2Z)(Z/6Z) inside SL2(Z[i]); and then compute the homology of the covering amalgam.
