Conservatoires UK Conservatoires UK Conservatoires UK, also known as CUK, is a group that represents eleven British conservatoires. In conjunction with UCAS, Conservatoires UK runs a clearing house for undergraduate and postgraduate music courses at seven of its member institutions called CUKAS (Conservatoires UK Admissions Service). Only the Guildhall School of Music and Drama does not accept applications through CUKAS. CUKAS allows applicants to submit one online application when applying to conservatoires, rather than a separate application for each institution (as was previously the case). The CUK Big Band is an ensemble of young musicians from music colleges across the UK. The
Virtually fibered conjecture fact, given that the geometrization conjecture is now settled, the only case needed to be proven for the virtually fibered conjecture is that of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. The original interest in the virtually fibered conjecture (as well as its weaker cousins, such as the virtually Haken conjecture) stemmed from the fact that any of these conjectures, combined with Thurston's hyperbolization theorem, would imply the geometrization conjecture. However, in practice all known attacks on the "virtual" conjecture take geometrization as a hypothesis, and rely on the geometric and group-theoretic properties of hyperbolic 3-manifolds. The virtually fibered conjecture was not actually conjectured by
