Toroidal and Annular Dehn Fillings

Abstract: Suppose

M

is a hyperbolic 3-manifold which admits two Dehn fillings

M (r_{1})

and

M (r_{2})

such that

M (r_{1})

contains an essential torus and

M (r_{2})

contains an essential annulus. It is known that

D e l t a = D e l t a (r_{1}, r_{2}) l e q 5

. We will show that if

D e l t a = 5

then

M

is the Whitehead sister link exterior, and if

D e l t a = 4

then

M

is the exterior of either the Whitehead link or the 2-bridge link associated to the rational number

3 / 10

. There are infinitely many examples with

D e l t a = 3

.
