On finite volume, negatively curved manifolds

We study noncompact, complete, finite volume, negatively curved manifolds $M$. We construct $M$ with infinitely generated fundamental groups in all dimensions $n\ge 2$. We construct $M$ whose cusp cross sections are compact hyperbolic manifolds in all dimension $n\ge 3$. In contrast we show that if sectional curvature $-1<K(M)<0$, then cusp cross sections have zero simplicial volume. We construct negatively curved lattices that do not contain any parabolic isometries. We show that there are $M$ such that $\tilde{M}$ does not satisfy the visibility axiom. We give a condition on the curvature growth versus the volume decay that guarantees topological finiteness. We raise a few questions on finite volume, negatively curved manifolds.
