For which surfaces is Penner's conjecture known to be true?

Shin and Strenner have shown that the conjecture is false when 3g + n > 4. See http://arxiv.org/abs/1410.6974

F→E→B bundle with B,E,F hyperbolic: possible?

As Ryan points out, the interesting case is when the fiber is 2-dimensional. As Igor points out, this is a difficult open problem when the fiber has dimension 2. When the fiber is a surface $F$, th …

Hyperbolic exceptional fillings of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds

Sixty is an upper bound. Hodgson and Kerckhoff's Universal Hyperbolic Dehn Filling theorem ("Universal bounds for hyperbolic Dehn surgery." Annals of Mathematics. 162(1), 367-421) says that, in a one …

Is the spectrum of closed geodesics in a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold asymptotically homogen...

I think this should just follow from the exponential mixing of the geodesic flow (due to Pollicott). Exponential mixing says that there is a constant $q$ such that if you have two smooth functions $f …

Do different Dehn fillings produce homeomorphic 3-manifolds ?

This phenomenon is called "cosmetic surgery." If $K$ is an amphichiral knot in the $3$--sphere with exterior $M_K$, then $M_K(p/q) \cong - M_K(-p/q)$. So if $p/q$ is a hyperbolic filling slope, the …

Hyperbolic structures on $S\times\mathbb{R}$

It follows from Thurston's Covering Theorem that there are no such examples. The covering theorem says that if a degenerate end is infinite-to-one under a covering map, then you are (virtually) in th …

What is the complex structure on the boundary torus of a hyperbolic knot complement?

The conformal structure on the cuspidal torus is usually called the "cusp shape." See Adams, Hildebrand, Weeks Hyperbolic invariants of knots and links and McReynolds, Arithmetic cusp shapes are dense …

cocompact discrete subgroups of SL_2

For the arithmetic point of view you mention, Maclachlan and Reid's book "The arithmetic of hyperbolic 3-manifolds" is a great reference. In case you're interested, there are also many geometric ways …

How to smootly interpolate between möbius transformations?

An explicit interpolation is pretty easy to find. (I'll use the upper half plane model.) $f$ is given by $\left( \begin{array}{cc} a & b \\\ c & d \end{array} \right)$. $f$ is elliptic, parabolic, …

Do you know how to construct a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold with three or four totally geod...

If you don't care about explicitly constructing the metric, you can do this: Let $N$ be a closed orientable $3$-manifold. Let $\Gamma$ be any finite graph such that each component has negative Euler …

injectivity radius of hyperbolic surface

Let $Y$ be a compact hyperbolic surface. There are only finitely many closed geodesics in $Y$ whose lengths are less that $\ell$. Since $\pi_1(Y)$ is residually finite, there is a normal subgroup of …

Example of hyperbolic 3-fold with no embedded incompressible subsurfaces

Infinitely many Dehn fillings on the figure eight knot complement $M_8$ have this property: All but finitely many fillings on $M_8$ are hyperbolic, by Thurston's hyperbolic Dehn filling theorem. The …

Mapping torus relative to an infinite orbit can be hyperbolic with finite volume?

An end of an orientable finite volume hyperbolic $3$--manifold always has a neighborhood homeomorphic to $S^1 \times S^1 \times \mathbb{R}$, so no. Introductory texts on hyperbolic manifolds will con …

Torsion in cuspidal cohomology

It is worth pointing out that $T$ may lie in the image of $i_*$: There is an $M$ such that $H_1(M) \cong \mathbb{Z}^{n} \oplus T$ and $H_{\mathrm{cusp}}(M) \cong \mathbb{Z}^{n-\mathrm{number\ of\ cus …
