Complex iso-length-spectrality in arithmetic hyperbolic
3-manifolds
The (real-)length spectrum of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold is
the set of lengths
of all closed geodesics along with the multiplicity of each length.
A closed geodesic
also has an imaginary part that represents the twist encountered by
traveling once
around the closed geodesic. So, the complex length of a closed
geodesic is +it, where
is the length of the closed geodesic and t is the twist with 0
≤ t < 2π. The complex
length spectrum of a compact hyperbolic 3-manifold is the set of
complex lengths of
all closed geodesics along with the multiplicity of each length.
Two compact hyper-
bolic 3-manifolds are called iso-length-spectral if their length
spectra are the same.
Also, two compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds are called complex
iso-length-spectral if
their complex length spectra are the same. The aim of this paper is
to investigate if
iso-length-spectral arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds are complex
iso-length-spectral.
Arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifolds are a class of hyperbolic
3-manifolds where arith-
metic data about the manifolds tells us a great deal of information
about the mani-
folds.
