Abstract
In this paper we define a new invariant of the incomplete hyperbolic structures on a 1–cusped finite volume hyperbolic 3–manifold , called the ortholength invariant. We show that away from a (possibly empty) subvariety of excluded values this invariant both locally parameterises equivalence classes of hyperbolic structures and is a complete invariant of the Dehn fillings of which admit a hyperbolic structure. We also give an explicit formula for the ortholength invariant in terms of the traces of the holonomies of certain loops in . Conjecturally this new invariant is intimately related to the boundary of the hyperbolic Dehn surgery space of .
