Abstract: We calculate the Lefschetz number of a Galois automorphism in the cohomology of certain arithmetic congruence groups arising from orders in quaternion algebras over number fields. As an application we give a lower bound for the first Betti number of a class of arithmetically defined hyperbolic 3-manifolds and we deduce the following theorem: Given an arithmetically defined cocompact subgroup of SL(2,C), provided the underlying quaternion algebra meets some conditions, there is a decreasing sequence of finite index subgroups of such that the first Betti number grows at least as fast as the square root of the index.

Summary: We give a lower bound for the first Betti number of a class of arithmetically defined hyperbolic \(3\)-manifolds and we deduce the following theorem. Given an arithmetically defined cocompact subgroup \(\Gamma \subset \mathrm {SL}_2(\mathbb C)\), provided the underlying quaternion algebra meets some conditions, there is a decreasing sequence \(\{\Gamma_i\}_i\) of finite index congruence subgroups of \(\Gamma\) such that the first Betti number satisfies \[ b_1(\Gamma_i) \gg [\Gamma:\Gamma_i]^{1/2} \] as \(i\) goes to infinity.
