| contents | It is a classical result of Dal'Bo that the length spectrum of a non-elementary Fuchsian group is non-arithmetic, namely, it generates a dense additive subgroup of $\mathbb{R}$. In this note we provide an elementary proof of an extension of this theorem: a non-elementary Fuchsian group contains two elements whose lengths are linearly independent over $\mathbb{Q}$, reproving a result of Prasad and Rapinchuk. |
