The veering sphere conjecture for veering triangulations

About 7 years old · traced to

Let MM be the manifold under consideration, let α\alpha denote the relevant veering structure, and let S2(α)S^2(\alpha) be the veering sphere constructed from it. Let ∂∞H3\partial_\infty \mathbb{H}^3 be the sphere at infinity of hyperbolic three-space, with π1(M)\pi_1(M) acting through its discrete and faithful representation. Veering sphere conjecture. The veering sphere S2(α)S^2(\alpha) is equivariantly homeomorphic to ∂∞H3\partial_\infty \mathbb{H}^3. This identifies the sphere obtained from the veering construction with the natural boundary at infinity associated to the hyperbolic action of π1(M)\pi_1(M).
