Orders and geometry types of permutation triples #
The order triple of a permutation triple records the orders of its monodromies at the ordered
branch points 0, 1, and ∞. It is the abc invariant used in the classification of
three-point covers. Each entry is also the least common multiple of the corresponding full
cycle partition.
The reciprocal sum of the three orders determines whether the associated triangle-group signature is spherical, Euclidean, or hyperbolic. This file defines that trichotomy using exact rational arithmetic and proves that both invariants are unchanged by relabeling the sheets or by inverting all three permutations to change composition convention.

The spherical, Euclidean, or hyperbolic geometry type of a permutation triple, determined by the exact rational reciprocal sum of its three component orders.
Equations
Instances For
A permutation triple is spherical exactly when the reciprocal sum of its component orders is greater than one.
A permutation triple is Euclidean exactly when the reciprocal sum of its component orders is one.
A permutation triple is hyperbolic exactly when the reciprocal sum of its component orders is less than one.
Two permutation triples have the same geometry type if the reciprocal sums of their order triples are equal.
Relabeling the sheets does not change the geometry type.
Transporting the sheet labels along an equivalence does not change the geometry type.
The trivial permutation triple has spherical geometry type.
Inverting all three components, as in the opposite composition convention, does not change the geometry type computed from their orders.
Isomorphic permutation triples have the same geometry type.
