We construct a countable collection of one-parameter families of non-rotational minimal annuli with free boundary in geodesic balls of hyperbolic 3-space. Every surface within a given family shares a common prismatic symmetry group, and…

Let $G$ be a graph with the usual shortest-path metric. A graph is $\delta$-hyperbolic if for every geodesic triangle $T$, any side of $T$ is contained in a $\delta$-neighborhood of the union of the other two sides. A graph is chordal if…

This is a survey article for the forthcoming `A Concise Encyclopedia of Knot Theory.' We focus on the topology of spatial graphs with few vertices and edges, paying particular attention to Brunnian $\theta$-graphs.

The exceptional Dehn filling conjecture of the second author concerning the relationship between exceptional slopes $\alpha, \beta$ on the boundary of a hyperbolic knot manifold $M$ has been verified in all cases other than small Seifert…

In this paper, we discuss some necessary and sufficient condition for a curve to be arithmetically Cohen-Macaulay, in terms of its general hyperplane section. We obtain a characterization of the degree matrices that can occur for points in…

We study a computational method of the hyperbolic Reidemeister torsion (also called in the literature the non-abelian Reidemeister torsion) induced by J. Porti for complete hyperbolic three-dimensional manifolds with cusps. The derivative…

Classical work of Thurston and Gabai shows that finitely many taut sutured manifold hierarchies determine the Thurston norm of a compact oriented irreducible $3$-manifold with toroidal boundary. We give an explicit procedure to extract this…

We show an infinite family of hyperbolic knots that have an exceptional surgery producing a graph manifold containing five disjoint, and non parallel incompressible tori.

Let N be a topologically finite, orientable 3-manifold with ideal triangulation. We show that if there is a solution to the hyperbolic gluing equations, then all edges in the triangulation are essential. This result is extended to a…

We show that cubulated hyperbolic groups with spherical boundary of dimension 3 or at least 5 are virtually fundamental groups of closed, orientable, aspherical manifolds, provided that there are sufficiently many quasi-convex,…

In this paper, we show that any non-arithmetic hyperbolic $2$-bridge link complement admits no hidden symmetries. As a corollary, we conclude that a hyperbolic $2$-bridge link complement cannot irregularly cover a hyperbolic $3$-manifold.…

Gravitational theta-sectors are investigated in spatially locally homogeneous cosmological models with flat closed spatial surfaces in 2+1 and 3+1 spacetime dimensions. The metric ansatz is kept in its most general form compatible with…

This paper focuses on using the theory of bicorn curves in the context of closed surfaces to understand hyperbolic phenomena of the curve graphs of those surfaces. We prove that the curve graph of any closed surface is 15-hyperbolic with…

If $X$ is a compact set, a {\it topological contraction} is a self-embedding $f$ such that the intersection of the successive images $f^k(X)$, $k>0$, consists of one point. In dimension 3, we prove that there are smooth topological…

The theta characteristics on a Riemann surface are permuted by the induced action of the automorphism group, with the orbit structure being important for the geometry of the curve and associated manifolds. We describe two new methods for…

In this paper we study exceptional Dehn fillings on hyperbolic knot manifolds which contain an essential once-punctured torus. Let $M$ be such a knot manifold and let $\beta$ be the boundary slope of such an essential once-punctured torus.…

We prove the existence of continuous boundary extensions (Cannon-Thurston maps) for the inclusion of a vertex space into a tree of (strongly) relatively hyperbolic spaces satisfying the qi-embedded condition. This implies the same result…

Suppose $M$ is a hyperbolic 3-manifold which admits two Dehn fillings $M(r_1)$ and $M(r_2)$ such that $M(r_1)$ contains an essential torus and $M(r_2)$ contains an essential annulus. It is known that $\Delta = \Delta(r_1, r_2) \leq 5$. We…

We prove a Gauss-Bonnet formula for the extrinsic curvature of complete surfaces in hyperbolic space under some assumptions on the asymptotic behaviour. The result is given in terms of the measure of geodesics intersecting the surface…

Gang, Kim and Yoon have recently proposed a conjecture on a vanishing identity of adjoint Reidemeister torsions of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with torus boundary, from the viewpoint of wrapped M5-branes. In this paper, we provide infinitely…
