Closed essential surfaces in hyperbolizable acylindrical 3-manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
We show that a compact hyperbolizable acylindrical 3-manifold with non-empty incompressible boundary, in which every boundary component has genus at least two, necessarily contains a closed immersed essential surface.

Small Curvature Surfaces in Hyperbolic 3-manifolds
In a paper of Menasco and Reid, it is conjectured that there exist no hyperbolic knots in S3 for which the complement contains a closed embedded totally geodesic surface. In this note, we show that one can get ”as close as possible” to a counter-example. Specifically, we construct a sequence of hyperbolic knots {Kn} with complements containing closed embedded essential surfaces having principal...
متن کاملGeodesic planes in the convex core of an acylindrical 3-manifold
Let M be a convex cocompact, acylindrical hyperbolic 3-manifold of infinite volume, and let M∗ denote the interior of the convex core of M . In this paper we show that any geodesic plane inM∗ is either closed or dense. We also show that only countably many planes are closed. These are the first rigidity theorems for planes in convex cocompact 3-manifolds of infinite volume that depend only on t...
متن کاملLower Bounds on Volumes of Hyperbolic Haken 3-manifolds
In this paper, we find lower bounds for the volumes of certain hyperbolic Haken 3manifolds. The theory of Jorgensen and Thurston shows that the volumes of hyperbolic 3-manifolds are well-ordered, but no one has been able to find the smallest one. The best known result for closed manifolds is that the smallest closed hyperbolic 3-manifold has volume > 0.16668, proven by Gabai, Meyerhoff, and Thu...
متن کاملHyperbolic Structures on 3-manifolds, Iii: Deformations of 3-manifolds with Incompressible Boundary
This is the third in a series of papers construting hyperbolic structures on Haken manifolds, analyzing the mixed case of 3-manifolds that with incompressible boundary that are not acylindrical, but are also not interval bundles. The main ingredient (beyond [Thu86] and [Thu98] is an upper bound for the hyperbolic length of the ‘window frame’, that is, the boundaries of I-bundles in the manifold...
متن کاملKnots with only two strict essential surfaces
We consider irreducible 3–manifolds M that arise as knot complements in closed 3–manifolds and that contain at most two connected strict essential surfaces. The results in the paper relate the boundary slopes of the two surfaces to their genera and numbers of boundary components. Explicit quantitative relationships, with interesting asymptotic properties, are obtained in the case that M is a kn...
