Idea

A Riemannian manifold which is both a 3-manifold and a hyperbolic manifold is a hyperbolic 3-manifold.

Equivalently this is a Riemannian manifold which is isometric to the quotient space 3/Γ\mathbb{H}^3/ \Gamma of hyperbolic 3-space by the action of a torsion-free discrete group Γ\Gamma acting by isometries.
