Arithmetic Polyhedra

Abstract: The Koebe-Andreev-Thurston theorem assigns a 3-dimensional hyperbolic reflection group to each combinatorial polyhedron. A natural question is: which of them are arithmetic? In 2016, Kontorovich-Nakamura conjectured that all arithmetic reflection groups obtained in this way are commensurable to those obtained from the tetrahedron, square pyramid, or cuboctahedron. In this paper, we prove the conjecture. It is a consequence of the following result of independent interest: all arithmetic ideal, right-angled hyperbolic polyhedra are obtained by gluing together copies of one of three ``seed'' polyhedra.
