%0 Journal Article %T Cross curvature flow on a negatively curved solid torus %A Jason DeBlois %A Dan Knopf %A Andrea Young %J Mathematics %D 2009 %I arXiv %R 10.2140/agt.2010.10.343 %X The classic 2pi-Theorem of Gromov and Thurston constructs a negatively curved metric on certain 3-manifolds obtained by Dehn filling. By Geometrization, any such manifold admits a hyperbolic metric. We outline a program using cross curvature flow to construct a smooth one-parameter family of metrics between the "2pi-metric" and the hyperbolic metric. We make partial progress in the program, proving long-time existence, preservation of negative sectional curvature, curvature bounds, and integral convergence to hyperbolic for the metrics under consideration. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/0906.4592v1
