The paper confirms a conjecture linking link bipyramid volume and Mahler measure.

We utilize ideal bipyramids to obtain new upper bounds on volume for hyperbolic link complements in terms of the combinatorics of their projections.

We present explicit geometric decompositions of the complement of tiling links, which are alternating links whose projection graphs are uniform tilings of the 2-sphere, the Euclidean plane or the hyperbolic plane. This requires generalizing the angle structures program of Casson and Rivin for triangulations with a mixt…

Generalizing previous constructions, we present a dual pair of decompositions of the complement of a link L into bipyramids, given any multi-crossing projection of L. When L is hyperbolic, this gives new upper bounds on the volume of L given its multi-crossing projection. These bounds are realized by three closely rela…

We present explicit geometric decompositions of the hyperbolic complements of alternating $k$-uniform tiling links, which are alternating links whose projection graphs are $k$-uniform tilings of $S^2$, $\mathbb{E}^2$, or $\mathbb{H}^2$. A consequence of this decomposition is that the volumes of spherical alternating $k…

Sharp bounds for spanning tree entropy in planar lattices.

Minimal covolume group found in hyperbolic 3-space.

The Vol-Det Conjecture relates the volume and the determinant of a hyperbolic alternating link in $S^3$. We use exact computations of Mahler measures of two-variable polynomials to prove the Vol-Det Conjecture for many infinite families of alternating links. We conjecture a new lower bound for the Mahler measure of cer…

Ancient formula connects volume forms and infinitesimal square volumes in manifolds.

In the context of Synthetic Differential Geometry, we describe the square volume of a ``second-infinitesimal simplex'', in terms of square-distance between its vertices. The square-volume function thus described is symmetric in the vertices. The square-volume gives rise to a characterization of the volume form in the t…

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 this paper, we present a generalization of this result to certain non-compact lo…

We show that complete uniform visibility manifolds of finite volume with sectional curvature $-1 \leq K \leq 0$ have positive simplicial volumes. This implies that their minimal volumes are non-zero.

Quasifuchsian hyperbolic manifolds, or more generally convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds, have infinite volume, but they have a well-defined ``renormalized'' volume. We outline some relations between this renormalized volume and the volume, or more precisely the ``dual volume'', of the convex core. On one hand, the…

Integral filling volume of mapping tori grows sublinearly with complexity.

In this paper, it is shown that for any closed orientable $3$-manifold with positive simplicial volume, the growth of the Seifert volume of its finite covers is faster than the linear rate. In particular, each closed orientable $3$-manifold with positive simplicial volume has virtually positive Seifert volume. The resu…

Integral foliated simplicial volume is a version of simplicial volume combining the rigidity of integral coefficients with the flexibility of measure spaces. In this article, using the language of measure equivalence of groups we prove a proportionality principle for integral foliated simplicial volume for aspherical m…

We define the ideal simplicial volume for compact manifolds with boundary. Roughly speaking, the ideal simplicial volume of a manifold $M$ measures the minimal size of possibly ideal triangulations of $M$ "with real coefficients", thus providing a variation of the ordinary simplicial volume defined by Gromov in 1982, t…

We consider the relation between simplicial volume and two of its variants: the stable integral simplicial volume and the integral foliated simplicial volume. The definition of the latter depends on a choice of a measure preserving action of the fundamental group on a probability space. We show that integral foliated s…

The Cayley hyperbolic space minimizes volume entropy among finite-volume metrics.

Uniform linear bounds on volume changes in 3D hyperbolic spaces.

Price without transaction makes no sense. Trading volume authenticates its corresponding price, so there exist mutual information and correlation between price and trading volume. We are curious about fractal features of this correlation and need to know how structures in different scales translate information. To expl…

Estimates open sets for fibrations, leading to volume vanishing results.

We show that non-elliptic prime 3-manifolds satisfy integral approximation for the simplicial volume, i.e., that their simplicial volume equals the stable integral simplicial volume. The proof makes use of integral foliated simplicial volume and tools from ergodic theory.

We study a metric version of the simplicial volume on Riemannian manifolds, the Lipschitz simplicial volume, with applications to degree theorems in mind. We establish a proportionality principle and a product inequality from which we derive an extension of Gromov's volume comparison theorem to products of negatively c…

Defines half-volume spectrum for manifolds and proves Weyl law holds.

We introduce the volume entropy semi-norm in real homology and show that it satisfies functorial properties similar to the ones of the simplicial volume. Answering a question of M. Gromov, we prove that the volume entropy semi-norm is equivalent to the simplicial volume semi-norm in every dimension. We also establish a…

Finite volume ends found in quaternionic Kähler manifolds.

In arxiv:1205.1274 Rieck and Yamashita defined the link volume of 3-manifolds and studied some of its basic properties. Many of these properties are similar to the corresponding properties of the hyperbolic volume. In this paper we calculate the link volume of an infinite family of prism manifolds. As a corollary, we s…

We prove a volume-rigidity theorem for fuchsian representations of fundamental groups of hyperbolic k-manifolds into Isom(H^n). Namely, we show that if M is a complete hyperbolic k-manifold with finite volume, then the volume of any representation of its fundamental group into Isom(H^n), 3 <= k <= n, is less than the v…
