Quasiconvexity and Dehn filling
One of the most important theorems in 3-manifolds topology is Agol’s Theorem asserting that every closed 3-manifold is virtually fibered and in particular virtually Haken. Agol proved this theorem in early 2012 for closed hyperbolic manifolds. The general (closed) case reduces to hyperbolic manifolds via geometrization. The case of cusped hyperbolic manifolds was left open … Continue reading "Quasiconvexity and Dehn filling"
