چکیده
LetM be a compact oriented irreducible 3–manifold which is neither a graph manifold nor a hyperbolic manifold. We prove that π1M is virtually special.

Graph manifolds with boundary are virtually special
Let M be a graph manifold. We prove that fundamental groups of embedded incompressible surfaces in M are separable in π1M , and that the double cosets for crossing surfaces are also separable. We deduce that if there is a ‘sufficient’ collection of surfaces in M , then π1M is virtually the fundamental group of a special non-positively curved cube complex. We provide a sufficient collection for ...
متن کاملS ep 2 00 2 HEEGAARD SPLITTINGS , THE VIRTUALLY HAKEN CONJECTURE AND PROPERTY ( τ )
The behaviour of finite covers of 3-manifolds is a very important, but poorly understood, topic. There are three, increasingly strong, conjectures in the field that have remained open for over twenty years – the virtually Haken conjecture, the positive virtual b 1 conjecture and the virtually fibred conjecture. Any of these would have many ramifications for 3-manifold theory. In this paper, we ...

متن کاملA Characterization of Virtually Embedded Subsurfaces in 3-manifolds
The paper introduces the spirality character of the almost fiber part for a closed essentially immersed subsurface of a closed orientable aspherical 3-manifold, which generalizes an invariant due to Rubinstein and Wang. The subsurface is virtually embedded if and only if the almost fiber part is aspiral, and in this case, the subsurface is virtually a leaf of a taut foliation. Besides other con...

The behaviour of finite covers of 3-manifolds is a very important, but poorly understood, topic. There are three, increasingly strong, conjectures in the field that have remained open for over twenty years – the virtually Haken conjecture, the positive virtual b 1 conjecture and the virtually fibred conjecture. Any of these would have profound ramifications for 3-manifold theory. In this paper,...
