Study bounds changes in hyperbolic 3-manifold structures after drilling short geodesics.

result Change is bounded by a universal constant times the square root of the length of the drilled geodesics.

In this paper we investigate how the volume of hyperbolic manifolds increases under the process of removing a curve, that is, Dehn drilling. If the curve we remove is a geodesic we are able to show that for a certain family of manifolds the volume increase is bounded above by πlπ\cdot l where ll is the length of the g…

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 orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold has volume >.32 .

Veering branched surfaces help construct geodesic flows on curved surfaces.

result Explicit constructions of veering branched surfaces corresponding to geodesic flows on negatively curved surfaces.

We prove a volume inequality for 3-manifolds having C^0 metrics "bent" along a hypersurface, and satisfying certain curvature pinching conditions. The result makes use of Perelman's work on Ricci flow and geometrization of closed 3-manifolds. Corollaries include a new proof of a conjecture of Bonahon about volumes of c…

Detects project management anti-patterns using code and issue data.

problem Detecting project management anti-patterns requires expert judgment and is expensive.
method Convert descriptions to detectable metrics, quantify deviations, and optimize patterns.
result Automatic calibration enhances pattern detection and severity assessment.

We introduce and study some deformations of complete finite-volume hyperbolic four-manifolds that may be interpreted as four-dimensional analogues of Thurston's hyperbolic Dehn filling. We construct in particular an analytic path of complete, finite-volume cone four-manifolds MtM_t that interpolates between two hyperbo…

result Reduces uncertainty and correctly predicts geological features up to 500 meters ahead of drill-bit.

We supply a proof of the fact that a hyperbolic 3-manifold MM with finitely generated fundamental group and with no parabolics is topologically tame. This proves the Marden's conjecture. Our approach is to form an exhaustion MiM_i of MM and modify the boundary to make them 2-convex. We use the induced path-metric, wh…

In this paper we try to establish a connection between a three-dimensional Lotka--Volterra dynamical system and two-dimensional topological surgery. There are many physical phenomena exhibiting two-dimensional topological surgery through a `hole drilling' process. By our connection, such phenomena may be modelled mathe…

The process of exploring and exploiting Oil and Gas (O&G) generates a lot of data that can bring more efficiency to the industry. The opportunities for using data mining techniques in the "digital oil-field" remain largely unexplored or uncharted. With the high rate of data expansion, companies are scrambling to develo…

In this paper we define a new state sum based on the regions defined by tangles on a surface which is an oriented closed surface with a finite number of open holes drilled. From this state sum we obtain an invariant of regular isotopy for the tangles named uu-invariant. The values of the uu-invariant are in $\mathbb{…

We extend Matveev's complexity of 3-manifolds to PL compact manifolds of arbitrary dimension, and we study its properties. The complexity of a manifold is the minimum number of vertices in a simple spine. We study how this quantity changes under the most common topological operations (handle additions, finite coverings…

In this paper we observe that 2-dimensional 0-surgery occurs in natural processes, such as tornado formation and other phenomena reminiscent of hole drilling. Inspired by such phenomena, we introduce new theoretical concepts which enhance the formal definition of 2-dimensional 0-surgery with the observed dynamics. To d…

A half-geodesic is a closed geodesic realizing the distance between any pair of its points. All geodesics in a round sphere are half-geodesics. Conversely, this note establishes that Riemannian spheres with all geodesics closed and sufficiently many half-geodesics are round.
