Abstract:We show that if there are two parabolic elements that generate a non-elementary Kleinian group that is not free, then there is a universal upper bound of two on the "length" of each of those parabolics, length being measured in a canonical choice of cusp boundaries. Moreover, there is a universal upper bound of ln(4) on the "distance" between those parabolics, where the distance between them is the distance between a pair of horoballs corresponding to the canonical cusps. We prove a variety of results with the… Show more

We provide a structure theorem for 3-manifolds with 2-generated fundamental group and non-trivial JSJdecomposition. We further give a number of applications. ᭧The main purpose of this article is to describe compact orientable irreducible 3-manifolds that have a non-trivial JSJ-decomposition and whose fundamental group is generated by two elements (i.e., is 2-generated). The rank of a group is the minimal number of elements needed to generate it. A natural question is whether the Heegaard genus of such a manifold is equal to 2.The JSJ-decomposition of a compact orientable irreducible 3-manifold M is the canonical splitting of M along a finite (maybe empty) collection of disjoint and non-parallel nor boundary-parallel incompressible embedded tori into Seifert fibred or atoroidal compact submanifolds.A compact orientable 3-manifold M is atoroidal if 1 (M) is not virtually abelian and every subgroup Z ⊕ Z ⊂ 1 (M) is conjugated into a peripheral subgroup (i.e., a subgroup associated to a boundary component).

We deal with the two-generator subgroups of PSL(2, C) with real traces of both generators and their commutator. We give discreteness criteria for these groups when at least one of the generators is parabolic. We also present a list of the corresponding orbifolds.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
