Abstract: This paper examines number theoretic and topological properties of fully augmented pretzel link complements. In particular, we determine exactly when these link complements are arithmetic and exactly which are commensurable with one another. We show these link complements realize infinitely many CM-fields as invariant trace fields, which we explicitly compute. Further, we construct two infinite families of non-arithmetic fully augmented link complements: one that has no hidden symmetries and the other where the number of hidden symmetries grows linearly with volume. This second family realizes the maximal growth rate for the number of hidden symmetries relative to volume for non-arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Our work requires a careful analysis of the geometry of these link complements, including their cusp shapes and totally geodesic surfaces inside of these manifolds.

Review text

In this paper, the authors study number theoretic and topological properties of a family of links called pretzel fully augmented links. Such links often admit hyperbolic structures that can be described by combinatorial information from their link diagrams. The authors determine exactly when such link complements are arithmetic (that is, if their fundamental group is commensurable to \(\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathcal{O}_k)\), where \(k\) is some imaginary quadratic extension of \(\mathbb{Q}\) and \(\mathcal{O}_k\) its ring of integers), and exactly when such link complements are commensurable with one another (that is, when they share a common finite-sheeted cover). They prove that these link complements realize infinitely many imaginary quadratic extensions of totally real number fields as invariant trace fields, and they explicitly compute these fields. Furthermore, they construct two infinite families of non-arithmetic fully augmented link complements: one that has no hidden symmetries whereas for the other, the number of hidden symmetries grows linearly with volume. The second family realizes the maximal growth rate for the number of hidden symmetries relative to volume for non-arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds. At the same time, the authors make an analysis of the geometry of link complements they consider, including their cusp shapes and totally geodesic surfaces inside of these manifolds.
