A 3-manifold group which is not four dimensional linear
Abstract
We give examples of closed orientable graph 3-manifolds with fundamental group which is not a subgroup of GL(4,k) for any field k. This answers a question in the Kirby problem list from 1977 which is credited to the late William Thurston.
