Abstract

We show that arithmetic lattices in SL₂(R), stemming from the proper units of an Eichler order in an indefinite quaternion algebra over Q, admit a 'small' covering set. In particular, we give bounds on the diameter if the quotient space is co-compact. Consequently, we show that these lattices admit small generators. Our techniques also apply to definite quaternion algebras where we show Ramanujan-strength bounds on the diameter of certain Ramanujan graphs without the use of the Ramanujan bound.
