Abstract
We show that the least genus of any compact Riemann surface S, admitti ng a simple Suzuki group G = Sz(q) as a group of automorphisms, is equ al to 1 + Absolute value of G/40. We compute the number of such surfac es S as the number of normal subgroups of the triangle group DELTA(2,4 ,5) with quotient-group G, and investigate the associated regular maps of type {4,5}.
