Hyperbolic metrics of finite volume #
A complete hyperbolic manifold need not be compact: the complement of a hyperbolic knot in S³,
and more generally the interior of every non-Seifert-fibred piece of the geometric (JSJ)
decomposition of a closed orientable irreducible 3-manifold, carries a complete hyperbolic metric
of finite volume, with cusps at its ends. This is the notion of hyperbolicity in the
geometrization theorem. This file records it, for the Riemannian volume measure
TauCeti.riemannianVolume of the bundled metric.
On a compact manifold the Riemannian volume is a finite measure, so there the condition is automatic, and a compact manifold is hyperbolic of finite volume exactly when it is hyperbolic.
Main definitions #
TauCeti.HyperbolicMetric.HasFiniteVolume: the Riemannian volume of a hyperbolic metric is a finite measure.TauCeti.IsFiniteVolumeHyperbolic: a manifold carries a hyperbolic metric of finite volume.
Main results #
TauCeti.isFiniteVolumeHyperbolic_iff: the definition, for any Borel measurable structure.TauCeti.HyperbolicMetric.hasFiniteVolume_of_compactSpace: on a compact manifold every hyperbolic metric has finite volume.TauCeti.isFiniteVolumeHyperbolic_iff_isHyperbolic: so a compact manifold is hyperbolic of finite volume exactly when it is hyperbolic.

Instances For
The defining property of TauCeti.HyperbolicMetric.HasFiniteVolume.
On a compact manifold every hyperbolic metric has finite volume, since the Riemannian volume is locally finite.
A manifold is hyperbolic of finite volume when it carries a complete smooth metric of
constant curvature -1 whose Riemannian volume is finite. The volume is taken for the Borel
σ-algebra; TauCeti.isFiniteVolumeHyperbolic_iff restates this for any Borel measurable
structure on M.
Instances For
A manifold is hyperbolic of finite volume exactly when it carries a hyperbolic metric of finite volume, computed for any Borel measurable structure.
A manifold that is hyperbolic of finite volume is hyperbolic.
A compact manifold is hyperbolic of finite volume exactly when it is hyperbolic: on a compact manifold every hyperbolic metric has finite volume.
