Dehn invariant sufficiency conjecture for hyperbolic and spherical 3-space
Dehn invariant sufficiency conjecture for hyperbolic and spherical 3-space
Let be the scissors congruence group of polytopes in a 3-dimensional geometry , and let
be the kernel of the Dehn invariant. Dehn invariant sufficiency conjecture. The volume maps
and
are injective. This is known in Euclidean 3-space by Sydler's theorem, while the corresponding hyperbolic and spherical cases remain open; the conjecture would imply that both Dehn-invariant kernels are countable.
