چکیده

We give an elementary construction of polyhedra whose links are connected bipartite graphs, which are not necessarily isomorphic pairwise. We show, that the fundamental groups of some of our polyhedra contain surface groups. In particular, we construct polyhedra whose links are generalized m-gons. The polyhedra of this type are interesting because of their universal coverings, which are two-dimensional hyperbolic buildings with different links. The presentation of the results is done in the language of combinatorial group theory.

Hyperbolic Triangular Buildings Without Periodic Planes of Genus 2

We study surface subgroups of groups acting simply transitively on vertex sets of certain hyperbolic triangular buildings. The study is motivated by Gromov’s famous surface subgroup question: Does every oneended hyperbolic group contain a subgroup which is isomorphic to the fundamental group of a closed surface of genus at least 2? In [10] and [3] the authors constructed and classified all grou...

Let X be a proper hyperbolic geodesic metric space and let G be a closed subgroup of the isometry group Iso(X) of X. We show that if G is not elementary then for every p ∈ (1, ∞) the second continuous bounded cohomology group H 2 cb (G, L p (G)) does not vanish. As an application, we derive some structure results for closed subgroups of Iso(X).

Let (Xi, di), i = 1, 2, be proper geodesic hyperbolic metric spaces. We give a general construction for a " hyperbolic product " X1× h X2 which is itself a proper geodesic hyperbolic metric space and examine its boundary at infinity.

For compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds we lift the Bloch invariant defined by Neumann and Yang to an integral class in K 3 (C). Applying the Borel and the Bloch regulators, one gets back the volume and the Chern-Simons invariant of the manifold. We also discuss the non-compact case, in which there appears a Z/2-ambiguity.

This paper is the first in a series whose goal is to understand the structure of low-volume complete orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Here we introduce Mom technology and enumerate the hyperbolic Mom-n manifolds for n ≤ 4. Our longterm goal is to show that all low-volume closed and cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds are obtained by filling a hyperbolic Mom-n manifold, n ≤ 4 and to enumerate the lo...
