Abstract

Classical fully augmented links have explicit hyperbolic geometry, and have diagrams on the 2-sphere in the 3-sphere. We generalize to construct fully augmented links projected to the reflection surface of any 3-manifold obtained by doubling a compact 3-manifold and show that the results of the classical setting extend to these links. When the resulting manifolds are hyperbolic, we find bounds on their cusp shapes and volumes. Note these links include virtual fully augmented links, and thus our bounds apply to such links when they are hyperbolic.
