Abstract

For any pair of orientable closed hyperbolic 33--manifolds, this paper shows that any isomorphism between the profinite completions of their fundamental groups witnesses a bijective correspondence between the Zariski dense PSL(2,Qac)\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{Q}^{\mathtt{ac}})--representations of their fundamental groups, up to conjugacy; moreover, corresponding pairs of representations have identical invariant trace fields and isomorphic invariant quaternion algebras. (Here, Qac\mathbb{Q}^{\mathtt{ac}} denotes an algebraic closure of Q\mathbb{Q}.) Next, assuming the pp--adic Borel regulator injectivity conjecture for number fields, this paper shows that uniform lattices in PSL(2,C)\mathrm{PSL}(2,\mathbb{C}) with isomorphic profinite completions have identical invariant trace fields, isomorphic invariant quaternion algebras, identical covolume, and identical arithmeticity.
