Abstract

Description

We complete the project begun by Callahan, Dean and Weeks to identify all knots whose complements are in the SnapPea census of hyperbolic manifolds with seven or fewer tetrahedra. Many of these ``simple'' hyperbolic knots have high crossing number. We also compute their Jones polynomials.
26 pages, published in Journal of Knot Theory and its Ramifications. Published version had the last term missing from some Dowker codes in Table 4, which have been corrected. Also, correction made in Table 1 for K7_80. (Thanks to David Boyd and Marc Culler for corrections.)
