Compact hyperbolic 4-manifolds of small volume
The problem of determining the smallest volume of hyperbolic manifolds of dimension 3 is related to the work of Thurston and Jørgensen [see, for example, \textit{R. Benedetti} and \textit{C. Petronio}, Lectures on Hyperbolic Geometry, Springer-Verlag, New York (1992; Zbl 0768.51018)]. This work shows the existence of a smallest volume for compact orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds which can be achieved by a finite number of manifolds. The first one is the Week-Matveev-Fomenko manifold, whose volume is approximately 0.942707. In the case of non-compact orientable hyperbolic 3-manifolds, the minimal volume is achieved by the figure eight knot complement and its sister manifold, see [\textit{C. Cao} and \textit{R. Meyerhoff}, Invent. Math. 146, 451--478 (2001; Zbl 1028.57010)]. In the paper under review the authors consider the same problem in the case of dimension 4. In this case the volume of a hyperbolic manifold is a constant multiple of its Euler characteristic, in fact this is given by \(Vol(M)=4\pi^2 \chi (M)/3\). A well known example of a compact orientable hyperbolic 4-manifold is the Davis manifold [see \textit{M. Davis}, Proc. Am. Math. Soc. 93, 325--328 (1985; Zbl 0533.51015)], whose Euler characteristic is 26. In this paper the authors prove the existence of a compact non-orientable hyperbolic 4-manifold of volume \(32\pi^2/3\), and an orientable double cover of this manifold of volume \(64\pi^2/3\). These manifolds, obtained from torsion-free subgroups of small index in the Coxeter group [5,3,3,3], give the smallest known volumes so far in the compact case.
