BAKER Abstract. We determine the values of m for which the Bianchi modular group PSL (O m) contains a link group. 1. Introduction and statement of results Let O m be the integers of the imaginary quadratic number field Q( m). The Bianchi modular group, PSL (O m ), is a discrete subgroup of PSL (C) the orientation preserving isometries of hyperbolic -space, H. In this paper we determine those values of m for which PSL (O m )containsa link group, that is, a torsion-free subgroup of finite index, Γ, such that H /Γis homeomorphic to a link complement in S. Results on the cohomology of PSL (O m ) (see [V]) limit the values of m for which this is possible to the following list, L: L = {1,,, 5, 6, 7, 11, 15, 19,, 1, 9, 47, 71}. Over the last 0 years, numerous link groups have been found in PSL (O m )for the seven cases m =1,,, 7, 11, 15, (see [B], [H1], [R1], [T], [Wi]). Furthermore, many of the corresponding links (figure eight knot, Whitehead link, Borromean rings,...) have been central to the study of -manifolds. We prove that the seven remaining Bianchi groups from the above list, L, also contain link groups; hence: Theorem. The Bianchi group PSL (O m ) contains a link group if and only if m L.. Preliminaries and outline of proof Henceforth, let Ω m denote the orbifold H / PSL (O m ). We prove our result by: i) Embedding Ω m in S as the complement of a link of circles. The orbifolds Ω m for m =5, 6, 15, 19,, 1, 9, 47, 71 are drawn in Figure 1. ii) Using the embeddings in (i) to prove that Ω m admits a finite sheeted orbifold covering Ω m Ω m such that Ω m is a nonsingular hyperbolic link complement. Thus Ω m = H /Γ, where Γ is a torsion-free finite index subgroup of PSL (O m ) and hence Γ is a link group (see [T], Chapter 1). The existence of Ω m follows from an analysis of the singular locus of Ω m. In Section we construct the link complements, Ω m. We also apply our methods to construct link complements corresponding to subgroups of PSL (O 15 )and Received by the editors June, 1998 and, in revised form, March 8, Mathematics Subject Classification.

Section 4 is devoted to a discussion of the orbifolds Ω m and their embeddings in S. In Section 5 we give the volumes of Ω m calculated using SnapPea. Comparing these volumes with expected theoretical values provides a good check of our results.
3 LINK COMPLEMENTS AND THE BIANCHI MODULAR GROUPS 1. Link complements: The covers Ω m Consider the orbifolds Ω m drawninfigure1. EachΩ m is a singular link complement. The components of the link are labelled by, while segments of the singular locus of cone angle π (resp. π/) are labelled by (resp. )..1. The cases Ω m, m =15,, 47, 71. Notice that the singular locus of these four orbifolds consists of two unknotted circles one of cone angle π, the other of cone angle π/ linked as shown: Now we simply use the fact that the n-fold cyclic cover of S branched over an unknotted circle is homeomorphic to S. Let Ω m Ω m be the -fold cyclic cover branched over the circle of cone angle π/. Then the orbifold Ω m is a link complement with singular locus an unknotted circle Σ of cone angle π. Hence the -fold cover Ω m Ω m branched over Σ gives the desired nonsingular link complement. We have drawn these links for m =15,, 47 in Figures 4. As for m = 71, the complexity of the resulting link is such that we leave this as an exercise for the reader! Ω 15 Figure. Ω Figure.
4 MARK D. BAKER Ω 47 Figure 4... The case Ω 1. The singular locus of Ω 1 is: The edges of cone angle π form an unknotted circle, Σ.LetΩ 1 Ω 1 be the -fold cyclic cover, branched over Σ. Thus the orbifold Ω 1, is again a link complement, with singular locus an unknotted circle, Σ,ofconeangleπ/. Hence the -fold cyclic cover of Ω 1 branched over Σ is a nonsingular link complement, drawn in Figure 5... The cases Ω m, m =5, 6, 9. We construct the covers Ω m Ω m using, in addition to the above techniques, the following lemma. Ω 1 Figure 5.
5 LINK COMPLEMENTS AND THE BIANCHI MODULAR GROUPS Figure 6a. Lemma. (a) The orbifold is -fold branch covered by. (b) The orbifold is -fold (irregular) branch covered by. Proof. We prove (b). The proof of (a) is analogous. We begin by compactifying the orbifold (b) by removing a tubular neighborhood of its link. Now consider its -fold cyclic cover, branched over Σ pictured in Figure 6a. The preimage of Σ consists of three unknotted circles of cone angle π. We further identify two of these singular circles by cutting along their (punctured) bounding disks and then identifying D 1 + with D (resp. D 1 with D+ ) by pushing everything through the tube, T (Figures 6b 6c). Notice that in these three cases, Ω m contains the configuration of lemma (b): Let Ω m Ω m be the corresponding -fold irregular branched cover...1. The case Ω 5. The construction of Ω 5 is illustrated in Figure 7a. The singular locus of Ω 5 is which we desingularize by taking cyclic covers as illustrated in Figure 7b. We obtain Ω 5 an 8-circle nonsingular link complement.... The case Ω 6. The -fold irregular cover Ω 6 Ω 6 is drawn in Figure 8a. Now Ω 6 contains the configuration of lemma (a); hence we obtain the -fold branched cover Ω 6 Ω 6 pictured in Figure 8b. The singular locus of Ω 6 is one circle of cone angle π, so that its -fold branched cover yields the 1-circle link complement in Figure 8c.... The case Ω 9. The -fold irregular branched cover Ω 9 Ω 9 is drawn in Figure 9. The singular locus of Ω 9 is: Thus (by applying verbatim the steps in.) we know that Ω 9 is 6-fold covered by a nonsingular link complement. Given the complexity of this link, we do not draw it here.
6 4 MARK D. BAKER Figure 6b. Figure 6c..4. The case Ω 19. The orbifold Ω 19, owing to its complicated singular locus, was the hardest to deal with. We began by considering the quotient group [ ] 1 ω PSL (O 19 )/, ω = 1+ 19, 0 1 which the computer program GAP ([G]) found to be of order 60. This implies the following: Proposition. The congruence subgroup Γ(I) PSL (O 19 ), I =(ω), is the fundamental group of a link complement in a homotopy -sphere. Proof. Recall that Γ(I) isthekernelofpsl (O 19 ) PSL (O 19 /I) (see[s]for details). Since O 19 /I = Z/5Z, it follows that Γ(I) is a normal, torsion-free subgroup of index 60 in PSL (O 19 ) containing the matrix [ 1 01 ω ]. Thus Γ(I) = [ 1 ω 01 ] so that Γ(I) is generated by PSL (O 19 )-conjugates of the parabolic element [ 1 01 ω ]. Hence one can perform Dehn filling on the ends of H /Γ(I) soastoobtainasimply connected -manifold. We will show that H /Γ(I) isinfactalinkcomplementins (which we do not draw) as well as give explicitly a 4-component link complement Ω 19 (Figure 10c), that is a 1-sheeted orbifold cover of Ω 19. Let X denote Ω 19 with its link circle put back (Dehn fill Ω 19 with respect to the meridian [ 01 1 ω ]). Note that X is topologically S. Both of the above results follow from the fact that X admits a 6-fold irregular orbifold cover, X,thatis

Construction of Ω 5 homeomorphic to S with singular locus a figure eight knot of cone angle π. The construction of X is carried out in.4.1 below (see Figures 10d 10j). The existence of X implies that X is 60-fold orbifold covered by a nonsingular S,forX is -fold branch covered by the lens space L(5, )whichisinturn5- fold covered by S. Now, removing the link circle from X and its preimages from S yields a 60-fold orbifold cover of Ω 19 by a link complement which, we claim, corresponds to the group Γ(I). Indeed, by construction the group Γ of the link complement is generated by conjugates of the matrix [ 01 1 ω ]sothatγ Γ(I) and thus Γ = Γ(I) since both are of index 60 in PSL (O 19 ). Actually constructing this link seemed rather difficult so we obtained the 4- component link complement Ω 19 (Figure 10c) as follows. Removing the link circle from X and its preimages from X yields a 6-fold irregular orbifold cover, Ω 19,of Ω 19 pictured in Figure 10a. Explicitly, one obtains Ω 19 by removing the link circle from X and performing the same cutting and pasting as in the construction of X

Now one easily obtains Ω 19 as illustrated in Figures 10b 10c: first twist in the top component of the link in Ω 19 so as to unknot the singular circle, then take the appropriate -fold branched cover We conclude by constructing a 6-fold irregular orbifold cover, X, of X homeomorphic to S with singular locus a figure eight knot of cone angle π. This is done in steps 1 5 below (see Figures 10d 10j). The orbifold X is drawn in Figure 10d. Remember that n represents an edge of cone angle π/n. We have added arrows to the edges of the singular locus to aid

The orbifold X is obtained by cutting and pasting together 6 copies of X along disks which are bounded by loops in the singular locus of X. 1. Redraw X as in Figure 10e. In Figure 10f we have split S open along a disk has D bounded by a loop in the singular locus of X. Note that the segment been split into two segments of cone angle π/, one on each copy of D.. Glue together two copies of X along D as shown in Figure 10g to obtain the cone manifold X.NotethatX is not an orbifold cover of X, since the labels on its singular locus are not all integers.

Note cancellation of singular loci and / since π/+π/(/) = π. 4. Now glue a copy of X to X from the front (cut and paste along disk F ) to get X as pictured in Figure 10i. 5. Finally, gluing X to X (along disk G) gives the desired cover X of X drawn in Figure 10j. 4. The orbifolds Ω m The orbifold Ω m = H / PSL (O m ) is topologically a noncompact -manifold with cusps of the form T [0, ) form 1, (resp.s [0, ) form =1, ). In all cases, the number of cusps of Ω m is equal to the class number of O m (see [S]). It is precisely for the 14 values of m in the list L that Ω m embeds in S. The orbifolds for m =5, 6, 15, 19,, 1, 9, 47, 71 are drawn in Figure 1. We obtained these embeddings as follows The cases m =5, 6, 15, 19,, 1. Let Γ m =PSL (O m )andd m be a Ford fundamental polyhedron for the action of Γ m on H (see [Sw] for details of this construction. The domains D m, m 19, are also explicitly given). R. Riley has written a computer program (described in [R]) that computes the Ford domains

Let D m be the compactification of D m obtained by removing a horoball neighborhood about each of the cusps.

Obtaining Ω 6 from X 6 The next step is to identify the remaining faces on T {0} from the inside. As an example, the embedding of D 6 /Γ 6 is illustrated in Figure The cases m =9, 47, 71. After doing the above cases, we were motivated to study Allen Hatcher s work on PGL (O m )orbifolds,x m = H / PGL (O m )(see [H]). Using Riley s PGL (O m ) Ford domains, Hatcher draws the nineteen X m that embed in S. These orbifolds have cusps of the form S [0, ), and (for m 1, ) Ω m is a -fold branched cover of X m branched in such a way so that the cusp spheres of X m are covered by cusp tori in Ω m. Indeed, PGL (O m )/ PSL (O m ) = Z/Z, and one obtains PGL (O m )frompsl (O m ) by adjoining the involution [ ]. It is this involution and its conjugates that act on the cusp tori of Ω m transforming them into cusp spheres. In each case (m 1, ) one can find an unknotted circle, Σ, in X m consisting of edges of cone angle π and two disjoint arcs on each cusp sphere such that Σ contains all singular edges with one or both vertices on cusp spheres. One obtains Ω m as the -fold cover of X m branched over Σ. In addition to obtaining Ω m for m =9, 47, 71 in this manner, we also constructed Ω m for m =5, 6, 15, 19,, 1 and found that they agreed with the Ω m constructed in 4.1. We illustrate this method in Figure 1 by obtaining Ω 6 from X 6. The reader can check that the orbifolds Ω 6 in Figures 11 and 1 are equivalent.
17 LINK COMPLEMENTS AND THE BIANCHI MODULAR GROUPS Modification of embeddings: Twist homeomorphisms. In certain cases, we have modified our embeddings of Ω m in S by: 1) Twisting about unknotted link components ) Twisting about parallel link components These twist homeomorphisms allow us to unknot singular circles as well as to link and unlink different components of a singular locus (see [Ro], Chapter 9, for a discussion of twist homeomorphisms). The orbifolds Ω m pictured in Figure 1 are embedded in a way that is most convenient for constructing the covers Ω m, and hence may differ from the embeddings appearing elsewhere. 5. Volume of Ω m A nice property of the Bianchi orbifolds is the existence of a number theoretical formula, due to Humbert, for their volume (see [T], Chapter 7): { vol(ω m )= (D)/ ζ Q m () 4m, m 1, (mod 4),, D = 4ζ Q () m, m (mod 4). Thus the volume of Ω m and hence that of Ω m can be computed to any degree of accuracy desired using the number theory program Pari ([P]). As a check of our results, we used SnapPea ([W]) to analyze Ω m,ω 9 and Ω 71 in Figures 1 10 and found that their volumes agreed with those obtained from
18 46 MARK D. BAKER Humbert s formula. We give these volumes below: vol( Ω 5 )= vol( Ω 6 )= vol( Ω 15 )= vol( Ω 19 )= vol( Ω )= vol( Ω 1 )= vol(ω 9 )= (Ω 9 is the -fold branched cover of Ω 9. Its singular locus is an unknotted circle of cone angle π/) vol( Ω 47 ) = vol(ω 71 )= Acknowledgments I thank F. Bonahon for helpful correspondence which led me to consider the orbifolds Ω m.
