Abstract: | Suppose that are degree-one maps between closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds with
Then, our main theorem, Theorem 2, shows that, for all but finitely many , is homotopic to an isometry. A special case of our argument gives a new proof of Gromov-Thurston's rigidity theorem for hyperbolic 3-manifolds without invoking any ergodic theory. An example in §3 implies that, if the degree of these maps is greater than 1, the assertion corresponding to our theorem does not hold. |
