Simplicial Volume and Fillings of Hyperbolic Manifolds
Let M be a hyperbolic n–manifold whose cusps have torus crosssections. In [FM10], the authors constructed a variety of nonpositively and negatively curved spaces as “2π–fillings” of M by replacing the cusps of M with compact “partial cones” of their boundaries. These 2π–fillings are closed pseudomanifolds, and so have a fundamental class. We show that the simplicial volume of any such 2π–fillin...
متن کاملStable complexity and simplicial volume of manifolds
Let the Δ-complexity σ(M) of a closed manifold M be the minimal number of simplices in a triangulation of M . Such a quantity is clearly submultiplicative with respect to finite coverings, and by taking the infimum on all finite coverings of M normalized by the covering degree, we can promote σ to a multiplicative invariant, a characteristic number already considered by Milnor and Thurston, whi...
متن کاملVanishing Simplicial Volume for Certain Affine Manifolds
We show that closed aspherical manifolds supporting an affine structure, whose holonomy map is injective and contains a pure translation, must have vanishing simplicial volume. This provides some further evidence for the veracity of the Auslander Conjecture. Along the way, we provide a simple cohomological criterion for aspherical manifolds with normal amenable subgroups of π1 to have vanishing...
متن کاملThe Angle Defect for Odd-Dimensional Simplicial Manifolds
In a 1967 paper, Banchoff stated that a certain type of polyhedral curvature, that applies to all finite polyhedra, was zero at all vertices of an odd-dimensional polyhedral manifold; one then obtains an elementary proof that odd-dimensional manifolds have zero Euler characteristic. In a previous paper, the author defined a different approach to curvature for arbitrary simplicial complexes, bas...
متن کاملHyperbolic Manifolds of Small Volume
We conjecture that for every dimension n 6=3 there exists a noncompact hyperbolic n-manifold whose volume is smaller than the volume of any compact hyperbolic n-manifold. For dimensions n≤ 4 and n = 6 this conjecture follows from the known results. In this paper we show that the conjecture is true for arithmetic hyperbolic n-manifolds of dimension n≥ 30. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification:...
