Some closed hyperbolic 5-manifolds

Jacopo G. Chen

Abstract

We give an explicit construction of a family of closed arithmetic hyperbolic 5-manifolds, tessellated by $117 964 800 = 512 \cdot 16 \cdot 14400$ copies of a Coxeter simplicial prism. We proceed to study various properties of these manifolds, such as the volume and the first Betti number. We also describe a related family of 5-manifolds with a larger volume, but a simpler construction.

Key Result

Theorem 1

There exist some closed orientable hyperbolic $5$-manifolds having $b_1 = 0$ and volume $<250000.0$.

Figures (3)

  • Figure 1.1: A schematic three-dimensional representation of the simplicial prism $P$ within the $120$-cell prism $Q$.
  • Figure 1.2: A three-dimensional representation of an orientable manifold with right-angled corners, obtained by arranging copies of $Q$ (here, a square prism) on a non-orientable hypersurface (here, a Möbius strip). Note that we will consider only $4$-manifolds without boundary, unlike the Möbius strip; hence, only the blue faces are relevant to our case.
