In this paper, we show that Gromov-Thurston's principle works for hyperbolic 3-manifolds of infinite volume and with finitely generated fundamental group. As an application, we have a new proof of Ending Lamination Theorem. Our proof essentially relays only on Maximum Volume Law for hyperbolic 3-simplices.Let f : M −→ M be a proper degree-one map between oriented hyperbolic 3-manifolds of finite volume. In [Th1, Theorem 6.4], Thurston proved by using results of Gromov [Gr] that f is properly homotopic to an isometry if and only if Vol(M ) = Vol(M ). This theorem suggests us Gromov-Thurston's principle on hyperbolic manifolds of dimension three (or more) that "Volume determines the structure". This principle is essentially supported by Maximum Volume Law, which says that a hyperbolic 3-simplex has the maximum volume v 3 = 1.01494 . . . if and only if it is a regular ideal simplex, see [Th1, Chapter 7]. The main tool for connecting the rigidity with the volume is the smearing 3-cycle z M (σ) on M associated with a straight 3-simplex σ : ∆ 3 −→ H 3 , which is introduced in [Th1, Chapter 6]. Now we consider the case when M is an oriented hyperbolic 3-manifold of infinite volume and with finitely generated fundamental group. Then, instead of the volume of M , we use the bounded 3-cocycle ω M on M such that, for any singular 3simplex τ : ∆ 3 −→ M , ω M (τ ) is the oriented volume of the straightened 3-simplex straight(τ ) of τ . Suppose that any ends of M are incompressible and there exists an orientation and parabolic cusp-preserving homeomorphism ϕ : M −→ M to another oriented hyperbolic 3-manifold M . Let Y be any infinite volume submanifold of M , possibly Y = M . Then, for the restriction z Y (σ) of z M (σ) on Y , ω M (z Y (σ)) is infinite. In such a case, we consider an expanding sequence of compact submanifolds X n of Y with ∞ n=1 X n = Y and substitute the restrictions z Xn (σ) for z Y (σ). The map ϕ is said to satisfy a pseudo-inverse inequality of straightened volume (for short an SV-pseudo-inverse inequality) on Y if there exists a constant c 0 > 0 and submanifolds X n as above such thatfor any n and any straight simplex σ : ∆ 3 −→ H 3 with Vol(σ) > 1. The lower bound '1' is chosen just as a constant such that v 3 − 1 is a positive small number.The following theorem is our main result.
