Abstract
|
In this paper we define a new invariant of the incomplete hyperbolic
structures on a 1–cusped finite volume hyperbolic 3–manifold
,
called the ortholength invariant. We show that away from a (possibly empty)
subvariety of excluded values this invariant both locally parameterises equivalence
classes of hyperbolic structures and is a complete invariant of the Dehn fillings of
which admit a hyperbolic structure. We also give an explicit formula for the
ortholength invariant in terms of the traces of the holonomies of certain loops in
. Conjecturally
this new invariant is intimately related to the boundary of the hyperbolic Dehn surgery
space of .
