4 flat 3-manifolds realized in hyperbolic 4-space.

Researchers found the minimum volume of a 3-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold.

We prove that non-compact finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds that satisfy a mild cohomological condition (infinitesimal rigidity) admit a family of properly convex deformations of their complete hyperbolic structure where the ends become generalized cusps of type 1 or type 2. We also discuss methods for controlling w…

The study identifies flat manifolds with unique cusp cross-sections in arithmetic hyperbolic manifolds.

We construct here two new examples of non-orientable, non-compact, hyperbolic 4-manifolds. The first has minimal volume $v_m = 4π^2/3$ and two cusps. This example has the lowest number of cusps among known minimal volume hyperbolic 4-manifolds. The second has volume $2\cdot v_m$ and one cusp. It has lowest volume among…

Study Dirac operator on cusped hyperbolic manifolds, finding spectrum properties.

New hyperbolic 3-manifolds with multiple cusps are found that sound the same but look different.

In this paper we explore coarse properties of cusp-decomposable manifolds first defined by Nguyên Phan. We describe the large scale geometry of the universal cover of a cusp-decomposable manifold and of quasi-isometries between two such universal covers. This description will provide us the tools to prove quasi-isometr…

Study Bergman kernels on complex hyperbolic cusps, generalizing previous results.

The study analyzes spectral asymmetry and index theory on manifolds with generalized hyperbolic cusps.

Motivated by a question of Hirzebruch on the possible topological types of cusp cross-sections of Hilbert modular varieties, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for a manifold M to be diffeomorphic to a cusp cross-section of a Hilbert modular variety. Specialized to Hilbert modular surfaces, this proves that e…

New 3D shapes found without certain flows.

The waist size of a cusp in an orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold is the length of the shortest nontrivial curve generated by a parabolic isometry in the maximal cusp boundary. Previously, it was shown that the smallest possible waist size, which is 1, is realized only by the cusp in the figure-eight knot complement. In …

Combinatorial Ricci flow finds hyperbolic metrics on 3-manifolds.

We introduce a simple algorithm which transforms every four-dimensional cubulation into a cusped finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifold. Combinatorially distinct cubulations give rise to topologically distinct manifolds. Using this algorithm we construct the first examples of finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifolds wit…

We introduce a generalization of the Dijkgraaf-Witten invariants for cusped or compact oriented 3-manifolds. We show that the generalized DW invariants distinguish some pairs of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds with the same hyperbolic volumes and with the same Turaev-Viro invariants. We also present an example of a pair …

Census of 10-tetrahedra hyperbolic 3-manifolds with 150,730 new examples.

The paper constructs Poincaré-Einstein 4-manifolds with various cusps.

We prove equality between the renormalized Ray-Singer analytic torsion and the intersection R-torsion on a Witt-manifold with cusps, up to an error term determined explicitly by the Betti numbers of the cross section of the cusp and the intersection R-torsion of a model cone. In the first step of the proof we compute e…

Let $M$ be a cusped finite-volume hyperbolic three-manifold with isometry group $G$. Then $G$ induces a $k$-transitive action by permutation on the cusps of $M$ for some integer $k\ge 0$. Generically $G$ is trivial and $k=0$, but $k>0$ does occur in special cases. We show examples with $k=1,2,4$. An interesting questio…

In this paper, we will count the number of cusps of complete Riemannian manifolds $M$ with finite volume. When $M$ is a complete smooth metric measure spaces, we show that the number of cusps in bounded by the volume $V$ of $M$ if some geometric conditions hold true. Moreover, we use the nonlinear theory of the $p$-Lap…

Motivated by classical theorems on minimal surface theory in compact hyperbolic three-manifolds, we investigate the questions of existence and deformations for least area minimal surfaces in complete noncompact hyperbolic three-manifold of finite volume. We prove any closed immersed incompressible surface can be deform…

For a single cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold, Hodgson proved that there are only finitely many Dehn fillings of it whose trace fields have bounded degree. In this paper, we conjecture the same for manifolds with more cusps, and give the first positive results in this direction. For example, in the 2-cusped case, if a mani…

Manifolds with fibered cusps are a class of complete noncompact Riemannian manifolds including all locally symmetric spaces of rank one. We study the spectrum of the Hodge Laplacian with coefficients in a flat bundle on a closed manifold undergoing degeneration to a manifold with fibered cusps. We obtain precise asympt…

Properly convex manifolds with generalized cusps have irreducible holonomy.

This paper is the second in a series whose goal is to understand the structure of low-volume complete orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Using Mom technology, we prove that any one-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold with volume <= 2.848 can be obtained by a Dehn filling on one of 21 cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We also sho…

The paper constructs complex hyperbolic 2-manifolds with one cusp.

In this paper, we study multiply transitive actions of the group of isometries of a cusped finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold on the set of its cusps. In particular, we prove a conjecture of Vogeler that there is a largest $k$ for which such $k$-transitive actions exist, and that for each $k \geq 3$, there is an upper…

3-manifolds are CR uniformized on spheres, proving a conjecture.

A horospherical torus about a cusp of a hyperbolic manifold inherits a Euclidean similarity structure, called a cusp shape. We bound the change in cusp shape when the hyperbolic structure of the manifold is deformed via cone deformation preserving the cusp. The bounds are in terms of the change in structure in a neighb…

Study of $(R,ε)$-panted cobordism groups in cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

We construct infinitely many examples of pairs of isospectral but non-isometric $1$-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifolds. These examples have infinite discrete spectrum and the same Eisenstein series. Our constructions are based on an application of Sunada's method in the cusped setting, and so in addition our pairs are fin…

This study of properly or strictly convex real projective manifolds introduces notions of parabolic, horosphere and cusp. Results include a Margulis lemma and in the strictly convex case a thick-thin decomposition. Finite volume cusps are shown to be projectively equivalent to cusps of hyperbolic manifolds. This is pro…

Several new combinatorial descriptions of closed 4-manifolds have recently been introduced in the study of smooth maps from 4-manifolds to surfaces. These descriptions consist of simple closed curves in a closed, orientable surface and these curves appear as so called vanishing sets of corresponding maps. In the presen…
