The Arithmetic of Hyperbolic 3-Manifolds

By Alan Reid and Colin Maclachlan

Book Overview

This text is based on graduate courses given by the authors. The seminal work of W. Thurston in the 1970's, in which geometric techniques were introduced to 3-dimensional topology, has made the area one of the most active areas of current research. Recently there has been considerable interest in developing techniques based on connections of hyperbolic 3-manifolds with number theory to attack problems on hyperbolic 3-manifolds. This is primarily the subject matter of the book.
