Abstract

The sister of Eisenstein–Picard modular group is described explicitly in [10], whose quotient is a noncompact arithmetic complex hyperbolic 2-orbifold of minimal volume (see [16]). We give a construction of a fundamental domain for this group. A presentation of that lattice can be obtained from that construction, which relates to one of Mostow's lattices.
