We investigate the geometry of closed, orientable, hyperbolic $3$-manifolds whose fundamental groups are $k$-free for a given integer $k\ge 3$. We show that any such manifold $M$ contains a point $P$ of $M$ with the following property: If…
We investigate the conjectural relations between the Reshetikhin-Turaev-Witten quantum SU(2) invariants and the volume of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Given a finite set of sufficiently large positive integers, say J, we construct examples of…
Extending methods first used by Casson, we show how to verify a hyperbolic structure on a finite triangulation of a closed 3-manifold using interval arithmetic methods. A key ingredient is a new theoretical result (akin to a theorem by…
We correct and complete a conjecture of D. Gabai, R. Meyerhoff and N. Thurston on the classification and properties of thin tubed closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We additionally show that if N is a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold, then either…
We construct combinatorial volume forms of hyperbolic three manifolds fibering over the circle. These forms define non-trivial classes in bounded cohomology. After introducing a new seminorm on exact bounded cohomology, we use these…
McReynolds showed that every compact Nil 3-manifold occurs as the cusp cross-section of some arithmetic complex hyperbolic 2-manifold. We classify which commensurability classes of cusped, arithmetic, complex hyperbolic 2-manifolds admit…
In this paper, we prove an equality which involves Reidemeister torsion, complex volume, and Zograf infinite product for hyperbolic 3-manifolds with cusps.
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…
We study the relationship between two norms on the first cohomology of a hyperbolic 3-manifold: the purely topological Thurston norm and the more geometric harmonic norm. Refining recent results of Bergeron, \c{S}eng\"un, and Venkatesh as…
For any oriented cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$, we study its $(R,\epsilon)$-panted cobordism group, which is the abelian group generated by $(R,\epsilon)$-good curves in $M$ modulo the oriented boundaries of $(R,\epsilon)$-good pants.…
We prove that the space $\mathcal{H}_\infty$ of framed infinite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifolds is connected but not path connected. Two proofs of connectivity of this space, which is equipped with the geometric topology, are given, each…
We prove that in the isotopy class of any volume preserving partially hyperbolic diffeomorphism in a $3$-dimensional manifold, there is a non-partially hyperbolic stably ergodic diffeomorphism. In particular, we provide new examples of…
In this note, we extend the Bridgeman-Kahn identity to all finite-volume orientable hyperbolic $n$-manifolds with totally geodesic boundary. In the compact case, Bridgeman and Kahn are able to express the manifold's volume as the sum of a…
We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for determining when a flat manifold can occur as a cusp cross-section within a given commensurability class of cusped arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds. This reduces the problem of identifying…
The density conjecture of Bers, Sullivan and Thurston predicts that each complete hyperbolic 3-manifold M with finitely generated fundamental group is an algebraic limit of geometrically finite hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We prove that the…
The main thrust of present note is a volume formula for hyperbolic surface bundle with the fundamental group G. The novelty consists in a purely algebraic approach to the above problem. Initially, we concentrate on the Baum-Connes morphism…
We realize 4 of the 6 closed orientable flat 3-manifolds as a cusp section of an orientable finite-volume hyperbolic 4-manifold whose symmetry group acts transitively on the set of cusps.
In this paper, we explicitly construct large classes of incommensurable hyperbolic knot complements with the same volume and the same initial (complex) length spectrum. Furthermore, we show that these knot complements are the only knot…
In this paper, we classify completely hyperbolic 3-manifolds corresponding to geometric limits of Kleinian surface groups isomorphic to $\pi_1(S)$ for a finite-type hyperbolic surface $S$. In the first of the three main theorems, we…
Torsion polynomials connect the genus of a hyperbolic knot (a topological invariant) with the discrete faithful representation (a geometric invariant). Using a new combinatorial structure of an ideal triangulation of a 3-manifold that…
