Title: A census of exceptional Dehn fillings
This paper describes the complete list of all 205,822 exceptional Dehn fillings on the 1-cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds that have ideal triangulations with at most 9 ideal tetrahedra. The data is consistent with the standard conjectures about Dehn filling and suggests some new ones.  more » « less

  2. Abstract The Dehn function measures the area of minimal discs that fill closed curves in a space; it is an important invariant in analysis, geometry, and geometric group theory. There are several equivalent ways to define the Dehn function, varying according to the type of disc used. In this paper, we introduce a new definition of the Dehn function and use it to prove several theorems. First, we generalize the quasi-isometry invariance of the Dehn function to a broad class of spaces. Second, we prove Hölder extension properties for spaces with quadratic Dehn function and their asymptotic cones. Finally, we show that ultralimits and asymptotic cones of spaces with quadratic Dehn function also have quadratic Dehn function. The proofs of our results rely on recent existence and regularity results for area-minimizing Sobolev mappings in metric spaces.

  3. We define a new condition on relatively hyperbolic Dehn filling which allows us to control the behavior of a relatively quasiconvex subgroups which need not be full. As an application, in combination with recent work of Cooper and Futer, we provide a new proof of the virtual fibering of non-compact finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds, a result first proved by Wise. Additionally, we explain how previous results on multiplicity and height can be generalized to the relative setting to control the relative height of relatively quasiconvex subgroups under appropriate Dehn fillings.

    We construct a finitely presented group with quadratic Dehn function and undecidable conjugacy problem. This solves Rips’ problem formulated in 1994.
