Topology

every closed three-manifold decomposes into pieces that each carry one of eight model geometries.

In topology, geometrization conjecture refers to every closed three-manifold decomposes into pieces that each carry one of eight model geometries. This meaning comes from Thurston (1982) in Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society.[1]
