In all dimensions $n \ge 4$ not of the form $4m+3$, we show that there exists a closed hyperbolic $n$-manifold which is not the boundary of a compact $(n+1)$-manifold. The proof relies on the relationship between the cobordism class and the…

Quasifuchsian hyperbolic manifolds, or more generally convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds, have infinite volume, but they have a well-defined ``renormalized'' volume. We outline some relations between this renormalized volume and the…

By use of H. C. Wang's bound on the radius of a ball embedded in the fundamental domain of a lattice of a semisimple Lie group, we construct an explicit lower bound for the volume of a quaternionic hyperbolic orbifold that depends only on…

New estimates are derived concerning the behavior of self-dual hamonic 2-forms on a compact Riemannian 4-manifold with non-trivial Seiberg-Witten invariants. Applications include a vanishing theorem for certain Seiberg-Witten invariants on…

For a complete, finite volume real hyperbolic n-manifold M, we investigate the map between homology of the cusps of M and the homology of $M$. Our main result provides a proof of a result required in a recent paper of Frigerio, Lafont, and…

In this paper, we find infinite hyperbolic 3-manifolds that admit no weakly symplectically fillable contact structures, using tools in Heegaard Floer theory. We also remark that part of these manifolds do admit tight contact structures.

In this paper we create many examples of hyperbolic groups with subgroups satisfying interesting finiteness properties. We give the first examples of subgroups of hyperbolic groups which are of type $FP_2$ but not finitely presented. We…

We show that cusped finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds contain infinitely many simple closed geodesics.

This is an expository paper on Mom-technology, describing the recent work of the authors in this area (found in arXiv:math/0606072, arXiv:0705.4325, and arXiv:0809.0346) concerning the use of Mom-technology to find the minimum-volume…

We show that every plumbing of disc bundles over surfaces whose genera satisfy a simple inequality may be embedded as a convex submanifold in some closed hyperbolic four-manifold. In particular its interior has a geometrically finite…

We derive an explicit formula for the volume of a regular simplex in the hyperbolic space of any dimension.

We construct some cusped finite-volume hyperbolic $n$-manifolds $M_n$ that fiber algebraically in all the dimensions $5\leq n \leq 8$. That is, there is a surjective homomorphism $\pi_1(M_n) \to \mathbb Z$ with finitely generated kernel.…

We provide an explicit lower bound for the sytole in principal congruence covers of compact quaternionic hyperbolic manifolds. We also prove the optimality of this lower bound.

In this paper we introduce the hyperbolic mean curvature flow and prove that the corresponding system of partial differential equations are strictly hyperbolic, and based on this, we show that this flow admits a unique short-time smooth…

This paper contains examples of closed aspherical manifolds obtained as a by-product of recent work by the author [arXiv:math.GR/0509490] on the relative strict hyperbolization of polyhedra. The following is proved. (I) Any closed…

We construct examples of complete quaternionic K\"ahler manifolds with an end of finite volume, which are not locally homogeneous. The manifolds are aspherical with fundamental group which is up to an infinite cyclic extension a semi-direct…

Let $(M, \dr M)$ be a 3-manifold with incompressible boundary that admits a convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. We consider the hyperbolic metrics on $M$ such that $\dr M$ looks locally like a hyperideal polyhedron, and we characterize the…

We construct new examples of embedded, complete minimal hypersurfaces in quaternionc hyperbolic space and also some minimal foliations. We introduce fans an construct analytic deformations of bisectors.

Let M be a hyperbolic n-manifold whose cusps have torus cross-sections. In arXiv:0901.0056, the authors constructed a variety of nonpositively and negatively curved spaces as "2\pi-fillings" of M by replacing the cusps of M with compact…

Some conjectures about Heegaard genera and ranks of fundamental groups of 3-manifolds are formulated, and it is shown that they imply new statements about hyperbolic volume.
