We supply a proof of the fact that a hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with finitely generated fundamental group and with no parabolics is topologically tame. This proves the Marden's conjecture. Our approach is to form an exhaustion $M_i$ of $M$…

We construct compact hyperbolic 3-manifolds with totally geodesic boundary, such that the closed 3-pseudomanifolds obtained by coning off the boundary components are negatively curved and contain locally convex subspaces whose fundamental…

We show that hyperbolic 3-manifolds with finitely generated fundamental group are tame, that is the ends are products. We actually work in slightly greater generality with pinched negatively curved manifolds with hyperbolic cusps. This…

Using PL-methods, we prove the Marden's conjecture that a hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ with finitely generated fundamental group and with no parabolics are topologically tame. Our approach is to form an exhaustion $M_i$ of $M$ and modify the…

We prove there exists a compact embedded minimal surface in a complete finite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifold $\mathcal{N}$. We also obtain a least area, incompressible, properly embedded, finite topology, $2$-sided surface. We prove a…

In this article, we prove that the commensurability class of a closed, orientable, hyperbolic 3-manifold is determined by the surface subgroups of its fundamental group. Moreover, we prove that there can be only finitely many closed,…

We show that a one-ended simply connected at infinity hyperbolic group $G$ with enough codimension-1 surface subgroups has $\partial G \cong \mathbb{S}^2$. Combined with a result of Markovic, our result gives a new characterization of…

We present a short elementary proof of an existence theorem of certain CAT(-1)-surfaces in open hyperbolic 3-manifolds. The main construction lemma in Calegari and Gabai's proof of Marden's Tameness Conjecture can be replaced by an…

Let N be a topologically finite, orientable 3-manifold with ideal triangulation. We show that if there is a solution to the hyperbolic gluing equations, then all edges in the triangulation are essential. This result is extended to a…

In this paper, we show the existence of smoothly embedded closed minimal surfaces in infinite volume hyperbolic $3$-manifolds except some special cases.

This note surveys recent progress toward the profinite rigidity of orientable finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Beginning in a brief review of some basic settings of profinite completion and rigidity of general groups, we state the…

In this paper, we introduce a particularly nice family of locally CAT(-1) spaces, which we call hyperbolic P-manifolds. For $X^3$ a simple, thick hyperbolic P-manifold of dimension 3, we show that certain subsets of the boundary at infinity…

In this survey we discuss how geometric methods can be used to study topological properties of 3-manifolds such as their Heegaard genus or the rank of their fundamental group. On the other hand, we also discuss briefly some results relating…

We study the group Tame(SL$_2$) of tame automorphisms of a smooth affine 3-dimensional quadric, which we can view as the underlying variety of SL(2,$\mathbb{C}$). We construct a square complex on which the group admits a natural cocompact…

In this paper, we give infinitely many non-Haken hyperbolic genus three 3-manifolds each of which has a finite cover whose induced Heegaard surface from some genus three Heegaard surface of the base manifold is reducible but can be…

We investigate the geometry of closed, orientable, hyperbolic $3$-manifolds whose fundamental groups are $k$-free for a given integer $k\ge 3$. We show that any such manifold $M$ contains a point $P$ of $M$ with the following property: If…

Let $M_0$ be a compact and orientable 3-manifold. After capping off spherical boundaries with balls and removing any torus boundaries, we prove that the resulting manifold $M$ contains handlebodies of arbitrary genus such that the closure…

Motivated by classical theorems on minimal surface theory in compact hyperbolic three-manifolds, we investigate the questions of existence and deformations for least area minimal surfaces in complete noncompact hyperbolic three-manifold of…

We prove a finiteness theorem for subgroups of bounded rank in hyperbolic $3$-manifold groups. As a consequence, we show that every bounded rank covering tower of closed hyperbolic $3$-manifolds is a tower of finite covers associated to a…

We prove existence of thick geodesic triangulations of hyperbolic 3-manifolds and use this to prove existence of universal bounds on the principal curvatures of surfaces embedded in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.
