The Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of PSL(2, q)

We show that the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of $PSL(2, q)$, or more precisely the group $GT_1(PSL(2, q))$ as previously defined by the author, is the product of an elementary abelian 2-group and several copies of the dihedral group of order 8. Moreover, when $q$ is even, we show that it is trivial. We explain how it follows that the moduli field of any "dessin d'enfant" whose monodromy group is $PSL(2, q)$ has derived length less than 4. This paper can serve as an introduction to the general results on the Grothendieck-Teichm\"uller group of finite groups obtained by the author.
