We give effective bilipschitz bounds on the change in metric between thick parts of a cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold and its long Dehn fillings. In the thin parts of the manifold, we give effective bounds on the change in complex length of a…

Hyperideal tetrahedra are the fundamental building blocks of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary. The study of their geometric properties (in particular, of their volume) has applications also in other areas of low-dimensional…

We show that any immersion, which is not a covering of an embedded 2-orbifold, of a totally geodesic hyperbolic turnover in a complete orientable hyperbolic 3-orbifold is contained in a hyperbolic 3-suborbifold with totally geodesic…

We give a complete proof of Thurston's celebrated hyperbolic Dehn filling theorem, following the ideal triangulation approach of Thurston and Neumann-Zagier. We avoid to assume that a genuine ideal triangulation always exists, using only a…

Let $M$ be a $2$-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold. By the work of Thurston, the product of the derivatives of the holonomies of core geodesics of each Dehn filling of $M$ is an invariant of it. In this paper, we classify Dehn fillings of $M$…

This survey paper contains an elementary exposition of Casson and Rivin's technique for finding the hyperbolic metric on a 3-manifold M with toroidal boundary. We also survey a number of applications of this technique. The method involves…

We define a complete Riemannian manifold X to be large-scale conformally rigid if all groups that are quasi-isometric to some complete Riemannian manifold of bounded geometry conformal to X are quasi-isometric to X. We prove that many…

We prove that every cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold has a finite cover admitting infinitely many geometric ideal triangulations. Furthermore, every long Dehn filling of one cusp in this cover admits infinitely many geometric ideal…

Let $M_0$ be a compact and orientable 3-manifold. After capping off spherical boundaries with balls and removing any torus boundaries, we prove that the resulting manifold $M$ contains handlebodies of arbitrary genus such that the closure…

We extend the complete census of orientable cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifolds to $10$ tetrahedra, giving the next $150730$ manifolds and their $496638$ minimal ideal triangulations. As applications, we find the precisely $439898$ exceptional…

Tightness of a triangulated manifold is a topological condition, roughly meaning that any simplexwise linear embedding of the triangulation into euclidean space is "as convex as possible". It can thus be understood as a generalization of…

We classify the 3-dimensional hyperbolic polyhedral orbifolds that contain no embedded essential 2-suborbifolds, up to decomposition along embedded hyperbolic triangle orbifolds (turnovers). We give a necessary condition for a 3-dimensional…

A divide is the image of a proper and generic immersion of a compact $1$-manifold into the $2$-disk. Due to A'Campo's theory, each divide is associated with a link in the 3-sphere. In this paper, we reveal a hidden hyperbolic structure in…

About a decade ago Thurston proved that a vast collection of 3-manifolds carry metrics of constant negative curvature. These manifolds are thus elements of {\em hyperbolic geometry}, as natural as Euclid's regular polyhedra. For a closed…

Let $N$ be a smooth manifold and $f:N\to N$ be a $C^l$, $l\geq 2$ diffeomorphism. Let $M$ be a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold, not necessarily compact. We prove an analogue of the $\lambda$-lemma in this case.
