A fundamental object in a hyperbolic 3-manifold M is its convex core C(M), defined as the smallest closed non-empty convex subset of M. We investigate the way the geometry of the boundary S of C(M) varies as we vary the hyperbolic metric of…

We construct compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds with totally geodesic boundary, such that the closed 3-pseudomanifolds obtained by coning off the boundary components are negatively curved and contain locally convex subspaces whose fundamental…

In this paper, we give infinitely many non-Haken hyperbolic genus three 3-manifolds each of which has a finite cover whose induced Heegaard surface from some genus three Heegaard surface of the base manifold is reducible but can be…

We show that if the totally geodesic boundary of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold M has a large collar of depth d, then the diameter of the skinning map of M is no more than A exp(-d) for some A depending only on the genus and injectivity…

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 is the third in a series of papers constructing hyperbolic structures on all Haken three-manifolds. This portion deals with the mixed case of the deformation space for manifolds with incompressible boundary that are not acylindrical,…

This paper investigates the relationship between the topology of hyperbolizable 3-manifolds M with incompressible boundary and the volume of hyperbolic convex cores homotopy equivalent to M. Specifically, it proves a conjecture of Bonahon…

Let $M$ be a non-compact hyperbolic $3$-manifold with finite volume and totally geodesic boundary components. By subdividing mixed ideal polyhedral decompositions of $M$, under some certain topological conditions, we prove that $M$ has an…

We show that if M is a complete, finite-volume, hyperbolic 3-manifold having exactly one cusp, and if H_1(M;Z_2) has dimension at least 6, then M has volume greater than 5.06. We also show that if M is a closed, orientable hyperbolic…

Let N be a compact, orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold with connected, totally geodesic boundary of genus 2. If N has Heegaard genus at least 5, then its volume is greater than 6.89. The proof of this result uses the following dichotomy:…

We investigate the geometry of $\pi_1$-injective surfaces in closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. First we prove that for any $e>0$, if the manifold $M$ has sufficiently large systole $\sys_1(M)$, the genus of any such surface in $M$ is bounded…

Let $(M, \partial M)$ be a compact 3-manifold with boundary, which admits a convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. We consider the hyperbolic metrics on $M$ such that the boundary is smooth and strictly convex. We show that the induced…

For a hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with a torus boundary component,all but finitely many Dehn fillings yield hyperbolic 3-manifolds. In this paper, we will focus on the situation where $M$ has two exceptional Dehn fillings: an annular filling…

Let $(M, \partial M)$ be a compact 3-manifold with boundary which admits a complete, convex co-compact hyperbolic metric. For each hyperbolic metric $g$ on $M$ such that $\dr M$ is smooth and strictly convex, the induced metric on $\dr M$…

We show that every closed, virtually fibered hyperbolic 3-manifold contains immersed, quasi-Fuchsian surfaces with convex cores of arbitrarily large thickness.

We give a construction of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with rank two fundamental groups and report an experimental search to find such manifolds. Our manifolds are all surface bundles over the circle with genus two surface fiber. For the…

We determine all hyperbolic 3-manifolds $M$ admitting two toroidal Dehn fillings at distance 4 or 5. We show that if $M$ is a hyperbolic 3-manifold with a torus boundary component $T_0$, and $r,s$ are two slopes on $T_0$ with $\Delta(r,s) =…

We prove a finiteness theorem for subgroups of bounded rank in hyperbolic $3$-manifold groups. As a consequence, we show that every bounded rank covering tower of closed hyperbolic $3$-manifolds is a tower of finite covers associated to a…

For a single cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold, Hodgson proved that there are only finitely many Dehn fillings of it whose trace fields have bounded degree. In this paper, we conjecture the same for manifolds with more cusps, and give the first…

Under mild topological restrictions, we obtain new linear upper bounds for the dimension of the mod $p$ homology (for any prime $p$) of a finite-volume orientable hyperbolic $3$ manifold $M$ in terms of its volume. A surprising feature of…
