The smallest hyperbolic 6-manifolds

arXiv:math/0410474

Abstract

By gluing together copies of an all-right angled Coxeter polytope a number of open hyperbolic 6-manifolds with Euler characteristic -1 are constructed. They are the first known examples of hyperbolic 6-manifolds having the smallest possible volume.
