Volumes of fibered 2-fold branched covers of 3-manifolds

arXiv:2208.02977

Abstract

We prove that for any closed, connected, oriented 3-manifold M, there exists an infinite family of 2-fold branched covers of M that are hyperbolic 3-manifolds and surface bundles over the circle with arbitrarily large volume.
