''Verified computations for hyperbolic 3-manifolds'' | |||
Abstract: | |||
Given a triangulated 3-manifold M a natural question is: Does M admit a hyperbolic structure? | |||
While this question can be answered in the negative if M is known to | |||
be reducible or toroidal, it is often difficult to establish a | |||
certificate of hyperbolicity, and so computer methods have developed | |||
for this purpose. In this talk, I will describe a new method to | |||
establish such a certificate via verified computation and compare the | |||
method to existing techniques. | |||
This is joint work with Kazuhiro Ichihara, Masahide Kashiwagi, | |||
Hidetoshi Masai, Shin'ichi Oishi, and Akitoshi Takayasu. | |||

Verified computations for hyperbolic 3-manifolds
Abstract: Given a triangulated 3-manifold M a natural question is: Does M admit a hyperbolic structure?
While this question can be answered in the negative if M is known to be reducible or toroidal, it is often difficult to establish a certificate of hyperbolicity, and so computer methods have developed for this purpose. In this talk, I will describe a new method to establish such a certificate via verified computation and compare the method to existing techniques.
This is joint work with Kazuhiro Ichihara, Masahide Kashiwagi, Hidetoshi Masai, Shin'ichi Oishi, and Akitoshi Takayasu.
