The higher-dimensional filling volume accumulation conjecture

About 16 years old · traced to

Let MM be a finite-volume hyperbolic nn-manifold with torus cusps, let VV be its complete hyperbolic interior, and let M(T1,…,Tm)M(T_1,\ldots,T_m) denote the manifold obtained by filling the cusps along totally geodesic codimension-11 tori T1,…,TmT_1,\ldots,T_m. Higher-dimensional filling volume conjecture. The volumes

∥M(T1,…,Tm)∥\left\|M(T_1,\ldots,T_m)\right\|

accumulate on

Vol⁡(V)vn\frac{\operatorname{Vol}(V)}{v_n}

but do not attain it. This proposes that the strict volume decrease and limiting-volume behavior of hyperbolic Dehn filling in dimension three persist for these higher-dimensional fillings.
