Splitting Homomorphisms and the Geometrization Conjecture
This paper gives an algebraic conjecture which is shown to be equivalent to Thurston’s Geometrization Conjecture for closed, orientable 3-manifolds. It generalizes the Stallings-Jaco theorem which established a similar result for the Poincaré Conjecture. The paper also gives two other algebraic conjectures; one is equivalent to the finite fundamental group case of the Geometrization Conjecture,...
متن کاملThe Thurston’s program derived from the Langlands global program with singularities
The seven geometries H , S , H × R , S × R , PSL2(R ) , Nil and Sol of the Thurston’s geometrization program are proved to originate naturally from singularization morphisms and versal deformations on euclidean 3 -manifolds generated in the frame of the Langlands global program. The Poincare conjecture for a 3 -manifold appears as a particular case of this new approach of the Thurston’s program.
متن کاملScalar Curvature and Geometrization Conjectures for 3-Manifolds
We first summarize very briefly the topology of 3-manifolds and the approach of Thurston towards their geometrization. After discussing some general properties of curvature functionals on the space of metrics, we formulate and discuss three conjectures that imply Thurston’s Geometrization Conjecture for closed oriented 3-manifolds. The final two sections present evidence for the validity of the...

These are notes on Perelman’s papers “The Entropy Formula for the Ricci Flow and its Geometric Applications” [51] and “Ricci Flow with Surgery on Three-Manifolds’ [52]. In these two remarkable preprints, which were posted on the ArXiv in 2002 and 2003, Grisha Perelman announced a proof of the Poincaré Conjecture, and more generally Thurston’s Geometrization Conjecture, using the Ricci flow appr...
