Geometric Structures on 3-manifolds

A new cubulation theorem for hyperbolic groups

We prove that if a hyperbolic group $G$ acts cocompactly on a CAT(0) cube complexes and the cell stabilizers are quasiconvex and virtually special, then $G$ is virtually special. This generalizes Agol's Theorem (the case when the action is proper) and Wise's Quasiconvex Hierarchy Theorem (the case when the cube complex is a tree). This is joint work in preparation with Jason Manning.
