Integration of closed bounded 2-forms over geodesic simplices gives an injective map from the space of such forms into H^2_b(M) for complete hyperbolic n-manifolds whose fundamental group has limit set equal to the full boundary at infinity.

abstract
We prove that for manifolds with negative curvature bounded away from $0$ of infinite volume and bounded geometry, the bounded fundamental class, defined via integration of the volume form over straight top-dimensional simplices, vanishes if and only if the Cheeger isoperimetric constant is positive. This gives a partial affirmative answer to a conjecture of Kim and Kim. Furthermore, we show that for all manifolds with negative curvature bounded away from $0$ of infinite volume, the positivity of the Cheeger constant implies the vanishing of the bounded volume class, solving one direction of the conjecture in full generality.
