Abstract

In this paper, we classify all the orientable hyperbolic 5-manifolds that arise as a hyperbolic space form H5/Γ where Γ is a torsion-free subgroup of minimal index of the congruence two subgroup Γ52 of the group Γ5 of positive units of the Lorentzian quadratic form x12+...+x52-x62. We also show that Γ52 is a reflection group with respect to a 5-dimensional right-angled convex polytope in H5. As an application, we construct a hyperbolic 5-manifold of smallest known volume 7ζ(3)/4.
