Abstract

We prove the following: there are infinitely many finite-covolume (resp. cocompact) Coxeter groups acting on hyperbolic space Hn for every n19 (resp. n6). When n=7 or 8, they may be taken to be nonarithmetic. Furthermore, for 2n19, with the possible exceptions n=16 and 17, the number of essentially distinct Coxeter groups in Hn with noncompact fundamental domain of volumeV grows at least exponentially with respect to V. The same result holds for cocompact groups for n6. The technique is a doubling trick and variations on it; getting the most out of the method requires some work with the Leech lattice.
