Abstract

This paper is devoted to 3-manifolds which admit two distinct Dehn fillings producing a Klein bottle.

Let M be a compact, connected and orientable 3-manifold whose boundary contains a 2-torus T. If M is hyperbolic then only finitely many Dehn fillings along T yield non-hyperbolic manifolds. We consider the situation where two distinct slopes γ1, γ2 produce a Klein bottle. We give an upper bound for the distance Δ(γ1, γ2), between γ1 and γ2. We show that there are exactly four hyperbolic manifolds for which Δ(γ1, γ2) > 4.
