Irrational-slope versions of Thompson’s groups T and V

Abstract: We consider irrational slope versions of T and V, We give infinite presentations for these groups and show how they can be represented by tree-pair diagrams. We also show that they have index-2 normal subgroups that are simple. This is joint work with Brita Nucinkis and Pep Burillo.
