3-manifolds and their invariants

fundamental results on three manifolds

• Mostow-Prasad rigidity
• geometrization

maps between threefolds

• maps between aspherical 3 manifolds
• aspherical threefolds = second and higher homotopy groups vanish
• JSJ decomposition http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSJ_decomposition
  
  • cutting M into
    
    • Seifert fibered pieces ~ non hyperbolic pieces
    • atoroidal pieces ~ hyperbolic pieces
• Thurston's geometrization
  
  • S^3, E\times S^2, Sol
  • E^3, E\times H^2, SL_2
  • H^3, Nil

• Dedekind zeta funciton evaluated at 2 gives a number related to volume of 3-manifold
  
• Bloch-Wigner dilogarithm is involved
  

 

 

a problem

• Prove
  $$ \begin{align} \frac{24}{7\sqrt{7}}\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\ln|\frac{\tan t+\sqrt{7}}{\tan t-\sqrt{7}}|\,dt & =\frac{2}{\sqrt{7}}(D(e^{2\pi i/7})+D(e^{4\pi i/7})-D(e^{6\pi i/7})) \\ & = \frac{2}{\sqrt{7}}(Cl(2\pi /7)+Cl(4\pi/7)-Cl(6\pi/7)) \end{align} $$
  
• a log tangent integral
