A Census of Tetrahedral Hyperbolic Manifolds

ABSTRACT We call a cusped hyperbolic 3-manifold tetrahedral if it can be decomposed into regular ideal tetrahedra. Following an earlier publication by three of the authors, we give a census of all tetrahedral manifolds and all of their combinatorial tetrahedral tessellations with at most 25 (orientable case) and 21 (non-orientable case) tetrahedra. Our isometry classification uses certified canonical cell decompositions (based on work by Dunfield, Hoffman, and Licata) and isomorphism signatures (an improvement of dehydration sequences by Burton). The tetrahedral census comes in Regina as well as SnapPy format, and we illustrate its features.

On generalized fibonacci groups with an odd number of generators

The geometrical properties of cyclically presented groups of Fibonacci type F(r,m, k)and H(r,m,k)are discussed. It is shown that for even rand odd m some infinite family of generalized Fibonacci groups F(r, m, k)cannot be fundamental groups of hyperbolic 3-orbifolds of finite volume.

On the Conjugacy Problem for Cyclic Extensions of Free Groups

ABSTRACT We study the conjugacy problem in cyclic extensions of free groups. It is shown that the conjugacy problem is solvable in split extensions of finitely generated free groups by virtually inner automorphisms. An algorithm for construction of the unique representative (the conjugacy normal form) for each conjugacy class is given.
