Generalized Smale Conjecture for constant-curvature 3-manifolds

From papers

Let (M3,g)(M^3,g) be a closed Riemannian 3-manifold with constant curvature K±1K\equiv\pm1. Let Isom(M,g)\operatorname{Isom}(M,g) be its isometry group and Diff(M)\operatorname{Diff}(M) its diffeomorphism group, with the natural inclusion

Isom(M,g)Diff(M).\operatorname{Isom}(M,g)\longrightarrow\operatorname{Diff}(M).

Generalized Smale Conjecture. This inclusion is a homotopy equivalence. The conjecture was verified by Kleiner and Bamler, giving a complete description of the relevant homotopy type in this constant-curvature setting.
