Abstract
Using the theory of hyperbolic manifolds with
totally geodesic boundary, we provide for every n≥ 2 a class
Mn of such manifolds all having Matveev
complexity equal to n and Heegaard
genus equal to n + 1. All the
elements of Mn have a single boundary component of genus
n, and #Mn
grows at least exponentially with n.
