Compact Hyperbolic 4-manifolds of Small Volume
We prove the existence of a compact non-orientable hyperbolic 4-manifold of volume 32π2/3 and a compact orientable hyperbolic 4-manifold of volume 64π2/3, obtainable from torsion-free subgroups of small index in the Coxeter group [5, 3, 3, 3]. At the time of writing these are the smallest volumes of any known compact hyperbolic 4-manifolds.
متن کاملKnot manifolds with isomorphic spines
We study the relation between the concept of spine and the representation of orientable bordered 3-manifolds by Heegaard diagrams. As a consequence, we show that composing invertible non-amphicheiral knots yields examples of topologically different knot manifolds with isomorphic spines. These results are related to some questions listed in [9], [11] and recover the main theorem of [10] as a cor...
متن کاملSpectral Properties of 4-dimensional Compact Flat Manifolds
We study the spectral properties of a large class of compact flat Riemannian manifolds of dimension 4, namely, those whose corresponding Bieberbach groups have the canonical lattice as translation lattice. By using the explicit expression of the heat trace of the Laplacian acting on p-forms, we determine all p-isospectral and L-isospectral pairs and we show that in this class of manifolds, isos...
متن کاملOn the Topology of Conformally Compact Einstein 4-manifolds
In this paper we study the topology of conformally compact Einstein 4-manifolds. When the conformal infinity has positive Yamabe invariant and the renormalized volume is also positive we show that the conformally compact Einstein 4-manifold will have at most finite fundamental group. Under the further assumption that the renormalized volume is relatively large, we conclude that the conformally ...
