## Properties

### Euclidean BTZ is hyperbolic solid torus

The Euclidean BTZ black hole is a hyperbolic 3-manifold homeomorphic to (the interior of) the hyperbolic solid torus, hence to the knot complement of the unknot in the 3-sphere.

Notice that the volume of the hyperbolic solid torus is not finite. Therefore this hyperbolic 3-manifold knot complement does not count as a “knot complement with hyperbolic structure” in the sense of Thurston‘s classification of 3-manifolds? (see also this MO discussion).
