In this article, we define the contact surgery distance of two contact 3-manifolds $(M,\xi)$ and $(M',\xi')$ as the minimal number of contact surgeries needed to obtain $(M,\xi)$ from $(M',\xi')$. Our main result states that the contact…

We provide a detailed proof of the following folklore theorem: Let mu > 0 be a Margulis constant for 3-dimensional hyperbolic space. Then for any d>0 there exists a constant K>0, depending on mu and d, so that for any complete finite volume…

If a graph is in bridge position in a 3-manifold so that the graph complement is irreducible and boundary irreducible, we generalize a result of Bachman and Schleimer to prove that the complexity of a surface properly embedded in the…

For a hyperbolic knot in the 3-sphere, at most finitely many Dehn surgeries yield non-hyperbolic 3-manifolds. As a typical case of such an exceptional surgery, a toroidal surgery is one that yields a closed 3-manifold containing an…

Let $M$ be a simple 3-manifold with a toral boundary component. It is known that if two Dehn fillings on $M$ along the boundary produce a reducible manifold and a toroidal manifold, then the distance between the filling slopes is at most…

The inscribed radius of a compact manifold with boundary is bounded above if its Ricci curvature and mean curvature are bounded from below. The rigidity result implies that the upper bound can be achieved only in space form. In this paper,…

For every closed hyperbolic Haken 3-manifold and, more generally, for any hyperbolic 3-manifold M which is homeomorphic to the interior of a Haken manifold, the number 0.286 is a Margulis number. If M has non-zero first Betti number, or if…

Green's inequality shows that a compact Riemannian manifold with scalar curvature at least $n(n-1)$ has injectivity radius at most $\pi$, and that equality is achieved only for the radius 1 sphere. In this work we show how extra topological…
