The rank of the fundamental group of certain hyperbolic 3-manifolds fibering over the circle
Abstract
Description
We determine the rank of the fundamental group of those hyperbolic 3-manifolds fibering over the circle whose monodromy is a sufficiently high power of a pseudo-Anosov map. Moreover, we show that any two generating sets with minimal cardinality are Nielsen equivalent.
