Hyperbolization theorem

In geometry, Thurston's geometrization theorem or hyperbolization theorem implies that closed atoroidal Haken manifolds are hyperbolic, and in particular satisfy the Thurston conjecture.

For Perelman's generalization of Thurston's geometrization theorem to all 3-manifolds, see Geometrization conjecture.
