Shrinkwrapping and the taming of hyperbolic 3-manifolds
Abstract
Description
We introduce a new technique for finding CAT(-1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We use this to show that a complete hyperbolic 3-manifold with finitely generated fundamental group is geometrically and topologically tame.
