Manifolds that do not admit nonpositive cubing
by
Tao Li
University of Texas at Austin

Let M be an orientable and irreducible 3-manifold whose boundary is an incompressible torus, and suppose that M does not contain closed nonperipheral embedded incompressible surfaces. We show that only finitely many Dehn fillings to M can yield 3-manifolds with nonpositive cubing.
