A result of Paula Cohen and Jürgen Wolfart states that all Fuchsian triangle groups and their finite index subgroups admit a so‐called modular embedding, that is, they may be seen as a subgroup of an arithmetic group and this may be done in such a way that the action of the triangle group on the upper half‐plane is holomorphically compatible with the action of the arithmetic group on a product of upper half‐planes. In this paper we are concerned with the question whether this construction could be mimicked for symmetric Fuchsian quadrilateral groups, that is, Fuchsian quadrilateral groups which possess a fundamental region with an additional symmetric property. Our main result is that the existence of a modular embedding for those groups is equivalent to the existence of certain extended Riemann mappings and that symmetric quadrilateral groups of signature [2, 2, 2, t] and [2, 2, t, t], t ∈ {3, 4, 6} will never admit a modular embedding unless they are already arithmetic themselves.
