Abstract.

We compute the hyperbolic covolume of the automorphism group of each even unimodular Lorentzian lattice. The result is obtained as a consequence of a previous work with Belolipetsky, which uses Prasad's volume to compute the volumes of the smallest hyperbolic arithmetic orbifolds.

I would like to thank Curtis McMullen for the interesting discussions that are at the origin of this article. I thank Jiu-Kang Yu for his help concerning Bruhat–Tits theory, Steve Tschantz for the numerical computation mentioned in Section 3, Anna Felikson and Pavel Tumarkin for helpful discussions, and Ruth Kellerhals, John Ratcliffe and the referee for helpful comments. I am thankful to the MPIM in Bonn for the hospitality and the financial support.
