For any closed hyperbolic manifold of dimension $n \geq 3$, suppose a sequence of $n$-cycles representing the fundamental homology class have norms converging to the Gromov invariant. We show that this sequence must converge to the uniform measure on the space of maximal-volume ideal simplices. As a corollary, we show that for a hyperbolic $n$-manifold $L$ ($n \geq 3$) with totally-geodesic boundary, the Gromov norm of ($L,\partial L$) is strictly greater than the volume of $L$ divided by the maximal volume of an ideal $n$-simplex.

AbstractLet Γ be a nonuniform lattice acting on the real hyperbolic n-space. We show that in dimension greater than or equal to 4, the volume of a representation is constant on each connected component of the representation variety of Γ in SO(n, 1). Furthermore, in dimensions 2 and 3, there is a semialgebraic subset of the representation variety such that the volume of a representation is constant on connected components of the semialgebraic subset. Combining our approach with the main result of [2] gives a new proof of the local rigidity theorem for nonuniform hyperbolic lattices and the analogue of Soma's theorem, which shows that the number of orientable hyperbolic manifolds dominated by a closed, connected, orientable 3-manifold is finite, for noncompact 3-manifolds.

AbstractWe outline the classification, up to isometry, of all tetrahedra in hyperbolic space with one or more vertices truncated, for which the dihedral angles along the edges formed by the truncations are all π/2, and those remaining are all submultiples of π. We show how to find the volumes of these polyhedra, and find presentations and small generating sets for the orientation-preserving subgroups of their reflection groups.For particular families of these groups, we find low index torsion free subgroups, and construct associated manifolds and manifolds with boundary. In particular, for each g ≥ 2, we find a sequence of hyperbolic manifolds with totally geodesic boundary of genus g, which we conjecture to be of least volume among such manifolds.

Let Γ be a discrete group and 𝒩 a finite factor, and assume that both have Kazhdan's Property (T). For p ∈ [1, +∞), p ≠ 2, let π : Γ →O(Lp(𝒩)) be a homomorphism to the group O(Lp(𝒩)) of linear bijective isometries of the Lp-space of 𝒩. There are two actions πl and πr of a finite index subgroup Γ+ of Γ by automorphisms of 𝒩 associated to π and given by πl(g)x = (π(g) 1)*π(g)(x) and πr(g)x = π(g)(x)(π(g) 1)* for g ∈ Γ+ and x ∈ 𝒩. Assume that πl and πr are ergodic. We prove that π is locally rigid, that is, the orbit of π under O(Lp(𝒩)) is open in Hom (Γ, O(Lp(𝒩))). As a corollary, we obtain that, if moreover Γ is an ICC group, then the embedding g ↦ Ad (λ(g)) is locally rigid in O(Lp(𝒩(Γ))), where 𝒩(Γ) is the von Neumann algebra generated by the left regular representation λ of Γ.

AbstractIn connection with our works in Molnár (On isometries of space forms. Colloquia Math Soc János Bolyai 56 (1989). Differential geometry and its applications, Eger (Hungary), North-Holland Co., Amsterdam, 1992), Molnár (Acta Math Hung 59(1–2):175–216, 1992), Molnár (Beiträge zur Algebra und Geometrie 38/2:261–288, 1997) and Molnár et al. (in: Prékopa, Molnár (eds) Non-Euclidean geometries, János Bolyai memorial volume mathematics and its applications, Springer, Berlin, 2006), Molnár et al. (Symmetry Cult Sci 22(3–4):435–459, 2011) our computer program (Prok in Period Polytech Ser Mech Eng 36(3–4):299–316, 1992) found 5079 equivariance classes for combinatorial face pairings of the double-simplex. From this list we have chosen those 7 classes which can form charts for hyperbolic manifolds by double-simplices with ideal vertices. In such a way we have obtained the orientable manifold of Thurston (The geometry and topology of 3-manifolds (Lecture notes), Princeton University, Princeton, 1978), that of Fomenko–Matveev–Weeks (Fomenko and Matveev in Uspehi Mat Nauk 43:5–22, 1988; Weeks in Hyperbolic structures on three-manifolds. Ph.D. dissertation, Princeton, 1985) and a nonorientable manifold $$M_{c^2}$$ M c 2 with double simplex $${\widetilde{{\mathcal {D}}}}_1$$ D ~ 1 , seemingly known by Adams (J Lond Math Soc (2) 38:555–565, 1988), Adams and Sherman (Discret Comput Geom 6:135–153, 1991), Francis (Three-manifolds obtainable from two and three tetrahedra. Master Thesis, William College, 1987) as a 2-cusped one. This last one is represented for us in 5 non-equivariant double-simplex pairings. In this paper we are going to determine the possible Dehn type surgeries of $$M_{c^2}={\widetilde{{\mathcal {D}}}}_1$$ M c 2 = D ~ 1 , leading to compact hyperbolic cone manifolds and multiple tilings, especially orbifolds (simple tilings) with new fundamental domain to $${\widetilde{{\mathcal {D}}}}_1$$ D ~ 1 . Except the starting regular ideal double simplex, we do not get further surgery manifold. We compute volumes for starting examples and limit cases by Lobachevsky method. Our procedure will be illustrated by surgeries of the simpler analogue, the Gieseking manifold (1912) on the base of our previous work (Molnár et al. in Publ Math Debr, 2020), leading to new compact cone manifolds and orbifolds as well. Our new graphic analysis and tables inform you about more details. This paper is partly a survey discussing as new results on Gieseking manifold and on $$M_{c^2}$$ M c 2 as well, their cone manifolds and orbifolds which were partly published in Molnár et al. (Novi Sad J Math 29(3):187–197, 1999) and Molnár et al. (in: Karáné, Sachs, Schipp (eds) Proceedings of “Internationale Tagung über geometrie, algebra und analysis”, Strommer Gyula Nemzeti Emlékkonferencia, Balatonfüred-Budapest, Hungary, 1999), updated now to Memory of Professor Gyula Strommer. Our intention is to illustrate interactions of Algebra, Analysis and Geometry via algorithmic and computational methods in a classical field of Geometry and of Mathematics, in general.
