This paper investigates a real-valued topological invariant of 3-manifolds called topological volume. For a given 3-manifold M it is defined as the smallest volume of the complement of a (possibly empty) hyperbolic link in M. Various…

Let $\rho_n(V)$ be the number of complete hyperbolic manifolds of dimension n with volume less than $V$. Burger, Gelander, Lubotzky, and Moses showed that when n>3 there exist a,b>0 depending on the dimension such that aV log(V) <…

In this paper, we prove a Heintze-Karcher type inequality for capillary hypersurfaces supported on various hypersurfaces in the hyperbolic space. The equality case only occurs on capillary totally umbilical hypersurfaces. Then we apply this…

We prove that all hierarchically hyperbolic spaces have finite asymptotic dimension and obtain strong bounds on these dimensions. One application of this result is to obtain the sharpest known bound on the asymptotic dimension of the…

We consider minimal submanifolds of negatively curved spaces with small curvature. We show that in a Hadamard space with negatively pinched curvature $-C\leq K\leq -1$, complete minimal submanifolds with second fundamental form less than…

Let ${\mathfrak M}$ be a closed, orientable, hyperbolic 3-orbifold such that $\pi_1({\mathfrak M})$ contains no hyperbolic triangle group. We show that strict upper bounds of 0.07625, 0.1525 and 0.22875 for ${\rm vol}\ {\mathfrak M}$ imply…

Let M be a complete, finite-volume, orientable hyperbolic manifold having exactly one cusp. If we assume that pi_1(M) has no subgroup isomorphic to a genus-2 surface group, and that either (a) H_1(M;Z_p) has dimension at least 5 for some…

The purpose of the present paper is to prove existence of super-exponentially many compact orientable hyperbolic arithmetic $n$-manifolds that are geometric boundaries of compact orientable hyperbolic $(n+1)$-manifolds, for any $n \geq 2$,…

The simplicial volume introduced by Gromov provides a topologically accessible lower bound for the minimal volume. Lafont and Schmidt proved that the simplicial volume of closed, locally symmetric spaces of non-compact type is positive. In…

In this note, we study the radius of positively curved or non-negatively curved Alexandrov space with strictly convex boundary, with convexity measured by the Base-Angle defined by Alexander and Bishop. We also estimate the volume of the…

Given a hyperbolic 3-manifold M containing an embedded closed geodesic, we estimate the volume of a complete hyperbolic metric on the complement of the geodesic in terms of the geometry of M. As a corollary, we show that the smallest volume…

Mixed volumes in $n$-dimensional Euclidean space are functionals of $n$-tuples of convex bodies $K,L,C_1,\ldots,C_{n-2}$. The Alexandrov--Fenchel inequalities are fundamental inequalities between mixed volumes of convex bodies. As very…
