Topological geodesics and virtual rigidity | Louis Funar

19 Jun 2001 | Journal: | Algebr. Geom. Topol. 1 (2001) 369-380 | Subject: | Geometric Topology; Differential Geometry MSC-class: 57M10, 20F67, 57M50 | math.GT math.DG | Abstract: | We introduce the notion of a topological geodesic in a 3-manifold. Under suitable hypotheses on the fundamental group, for instance word-hyperbolicity, topological geodesics are shown to have the useful properties of, and play the same role in several applications as, geodesics in negatively curved spaces. This permits us to obtain virtual rigidity results for 3-manifolds. | Source: | arXiv, math.GT/0106163 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
