Plenary Talks
Abstract Detail

Shrinkwrapping and the taming of hyperbolic 3-manifolds
We discuss a new tool for finding CAT(-1) surfaces in hyperbolic 3-manifolds, called shrinkwrapping. We discuss applications of this tool, including a proof of the Tameness Conjecture. This is joint work with Dave Gabai.
