‟Arithmeticity and commensurability of links in thickened surfaces” by Rose Kaplan-Kelly <rkaplank@gmu.edu>, George Mason University
Abstract:
In this talk, we will consider a generalization of alternating links and their complements in thickened surfaces. In particular, a family of generalized alternating links which each correspond to a Euclidean or hyperbolic tiling and have a right-angled complete hyperbolic structure on their complement. We will determine the arithmeticity of these links and find their pairwise commensurability. This is joint work with David Futer.
