Cannon's conjecture. Every word-hyperbolic group with boundary homeomorphic to S² admits a proper cocompact isometric action on hyperbolic three-space with finite kernel, proving Cannon's conjecture. Every torsion-free such group is therefore the fundamental group of a closed hyperbolic three-manifold.

We prove that every hyperbolic group whose boundary is homeomorphic to the two-sphere admits a proper cocompact isometric action on hyperbolic three-space with finite kernel. This resolves Cannon's conjecture positively.
