Fibered Faces, Veering Triangulations, and the Arc Complex
We study the connections between subsurface projections in curve and arc complexes in fibered 3-manifolds and Agol’s veering triangulation. The main theme is that large-distance subsurfaces in fibers are associated to large simplicial regions in the veering triangulation, and this correspondence holds uniformly for all fibers in a given fibered face of the Thurston norm.
متن کاملTaut branched surfaces from veering triangulations
Let M be a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold with a fibered face σ of the unit ball of the Thurston norm on H2(M). If M satisfies a certain condition related to Agol’s veering triangulations, we construct a taut branched surface in M spanning σ. This partially answers a 1985 question of Oertel, and extends an earlier partial answer due to Mosher.
متن کاملThe cusped hyperbolic census is complete
From its creation in 1989 through subsequent extensions, the widely-used “SnapPea census” now aims to represent all cusped finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds that can be obtained from ≤ 8 ideal tetrahedra. Its construction, however, has relied on inexact computations and some unproven (though reasonable) assumptions, and so its completeness was never guaranteed. For the first time, we prove h...
متن کاملAn Alternative Manifold for Cosmology Using Seifert Fibered and Hyperbolic Spaces
We propose a model with 3-dimensional spatial sections, constructed from hyperbolic cusp space glued to Seifert manifolds which are in this case homology spheres. The topological part of this research is based on Thurston’s conjecture which states that any 3-dimensional manifold has a canonical decomposition into parts, each of which has a particular geometric structure. In our case, each part ...
متن کاملConstruction and Recognition of Hyperbolic 3-Manifolds with Geodesic Boundary
We extend to the context of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with geodesic boundary Thurston’s approach to hyperbolization by means of geometric triangulations. In particular, we introduce moduli for (partially) truncated hyperbolic tetrahedra, and we discuss consistency and completeness equations. Moreover, building on previous work of Ushijima, we extend Weeks’ tilt formula algorithm, which computes th...
