Classification of Hyperbolic Dehn fillings II: Quadratic case

Abstract

This paper is subsequent to [5]. In this paper, we extend the classification of hyperbolic Dehn fillings with sufficiently large coefficients by addressing the remaining case not covered in [5]. Specifically, by considering the case in which the two cusp shapes lie in the same quadratic field, we obtain the complete classification under a mild assumption satisfied by most manifolds. The content of this paper is not limited to the classification of hyperbolic Dehn fillings. Along the way, we also classify key types of automorphisms of the holonomy variety of a two-cusped hyperbolic $3$-manifold and uncover an intriguing hidden structure in the complex volume of certain manifolds. Concrete examples illustrating these phenomena were discovered by S. Oh, and we elaborate on them in this paper. All the results presented here appear to be effective. In the third paper of this series, joint with S. Oh, we will provide examples confirming the optimality of our results.

Word Length Formulae, Normal Forms, Conjugation and Root-finding Algorithms in Surface Groups

In this paper, we mainly study the following symmetric presentation of the surface group $$π_1(Σ_g)=\left\langle c_1,\dots, c_{2g}\mid c_1\cdots c_{2g}c_1^{-1}\cdots c_{2g}^{-1}\right\rangle.$$ For every nontrivial element $x\in π_1(Σ_g)$ and $k\geq 2$, we obtain a uniform representative of the normal forms $\mathfrak{nf}(x^k)$ of $x^k$ under the length-lexicographical order: $$\mathfrak{nf}(x^k) = \overline{LW^{k-2}R}.$$ Building on this result, we establish a new relation among these normal forms, and then derive the following three formulae related to the word length: $|x^2|>|x|$; $|x^k|=(k-1)(|x^2|-|x|)+|x|$; $\lim_{k\to\infty}\frac{|x^k|}{k}=|x^2|-|x|$. Furthermore, we extend these results to obtain a coarser analogue for every minimal geometric presentation. We then define normal forms of conjugacy classes in $π_1(Σ_g)$ and provide a criterion for determining the conjugacy of group elements. As a consequence, we provide efficient algorithms for solving the root-finding and conjugacy problems. Finally, we present applications to the computation of several growth rates.

Plane separating continua inscribe rectangles

We prove the following: If $X$ is a plane separating continuum, then every embedding of $X$ into $\mathbb{R}^2$ contains the vertices of a Euclidean rectangle. We arrive to this result by extending a known result by H. Vaughan for Jordan curves to a wider class of topological objects via shape theory and Steenrod homology.

Every Link Has Infinitely Many Explicit Generalised T-Link Presentations

Generalised $T$-links provide a simple description of all links in $S^3$ as closures of products of standard twisting blocks, parametrised by finite sequences of integers. We prove that every link admits infinitely many pairwise distinct generalised $T$-link presentations. Starting from any such presentation, we give explicit parameter transformations that preserve the represented link and generate families of pairwise distinct presentations depending on arbitrarily many independent integer parameters.
