Sasaki–Einstein Manifolds and Volume Minimisation
We study a variational problem whose critical point determines the Reeb vector field for a Sasaki–Einstein manifold. This extends our previous work on Sasakian geometry by lifting the condition that the manifolds are toric. We show that the Einstein–Hilbert action, restricted to a space of Sasakian metrics on a link L in a Calabi–Yau cone X, is the volume functional, which in fact is a function...
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:...
متن کاملMinimum-volume Hyperbolic 3-manifolds
The classification of small-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds has been an active problem for many years, ever since Thurston suggested that volume was a measure of the complexity of a hyperbolic 3-manifold. Quite recently in [GMM3] the author along with David Gabai and Robert Meyerhoff used a geometrical construction called a Mom-n structure to tackle the classification problem, and succeeded in sh...
متن کاملSimplicial 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...
