On compact hyperbolic manifolds of Euler characteristic two

Vincent Emery

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 14 (2014) 853–861
Abstract

We prove that for n > 4 there is no compact arithmetic hyperbolic n–manifold whose Euler characteristic has absolute value equal to 2. In particular, this shows the nonexistence of arithmetically defined hyperbolic rational homology n–spheres with n even and different than 4.

Dedicated to the memory of Colin Maclachlan
