According to some implications from the Jørgensen-Gromov theorem [see \textit{W. Thurston}, The geometry and topology of 3-manifolds, Princeton Univ. Press 1978/79] the set of volumes of hyperbolic 3-manifolds is well ordered and the volume function is finite-to-one in this case. The authors discuss some discrete torsion free subgroups \(G\) of \(\text{PSL} (2,\mathbb{C})\) which are constructed as HNN-extensions of web-groups \(G_0 \subset \text{PSL} (2, \mathbb{C})\) with cyclic groups \(C_i\) and use this to prove the following Theorem: For each integer \(N\), there is a compact polyhedron \(P_N\) in the hyperbolic 3-space \(\mathbb{H}^3\) from which face identifications yield at least \(2N\) different 3-dimensional closed, orientable hyperbolic manifolds with totally geodesic surfaces of genus \(2N\), admitting an isometry group of the order \(2N\). Independently hyperbolic manifolds with the same volume have been presented in the papers of \textit{A. Yu. Vesnin} [Sib. Math. J. 28, No. 5, 731-734 (1987); translation from Sib. Mat. Zh. 28, No. 5(165), 50-53 (1987; Zbl 0635.53020)] and \textit{A. Kawauchi} [Sugaku Expo. 2, No. 2, 141-156 (1989); translation from Sûgaku 40, No. 3, 193-204 (1988; Zbl 0694.57008)], but there no common fundamental polyhedron is considered. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0747.00024].
