Semi-hyperbolicity and hyperbolicity
This paper is devoted to show several results on semi-hyperbolicity which support the idea that semi-hyperbolicity implies hyperbolicity. One of the main results of the paper establishes that for \(C^1\) diffeomorphisms semi-hyperbolicity of an invariant set implies its hyperbolicity.

Homotopy hyperbolic 3-manifolds are hyperbolic [PDF]
This paper introduces a rigorous computer-assisted procedure for analyzing hyperbolic 3-manifolds. This technique is used to complete the proof of several long-standing rigidity conjectures in 3-manifold theory as well as to provide a new lower bound for the volume of a closed orientable hyperbolic 3-manifold.
