Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0747.00024.] Let \(K\) denote the figure-eight knot. The main result is that the group of the orbifold \((K,n)\) is arithmetic exactly when \(n=4,5,6,8,\infty\). It is also shown that \((K,n)\) is euclidean for \(n=3\), hyperbolic for \(n>3\), and spherical for \(n<3\).
