These ideas generalize a program introduced by Casson (see \\textit{M. Lackenby} [Invent. Math. 140, 243--282 (2000; Zbl 0947.57016)] and \\textit{I. Rivin} [Adv. Appl. Math. 31, 242--271 (2003; Zbl 1028.52006)]) for finding hyperbolic metrics on compact ideally triangulated 3-manifolds with torus boundary.  An angle structure on a closed triangulated 3-manifold \\((M,T)\\) is an assignment of a number, called the dihedral angle, to each edge of each 3-simplex in the triangulation \\(T\\) such that (1) the dihedral angles at three edges of the same 3-simplex sharing a common vertex are the inner angles of a spherical triangle (that is the assignment is an angle structure on each 3-simplex of \\(T\\)) and (2) the sum of the dihedral angles at each edge in \\(T\\) is \\(2\\pi\\). By a result of Kitaev and the author, any closed 3-manifold has a triangulation supporting an angle structure.  Via the Schlaefli formula and the Cosine Law, it is possible to define the volume of a 3-simplex with an angle structure, as a function on dihedral angles, and then to extend it to the case of a closed triangulated 3-manifold \\((M,T)\\) with an angle structure, by taking the sum of the volumes of all 3-simplexes in \\(T\\).   The main result of the paper is that, when the moduli space \\(AS(M,T)\\) of all angle structures on \\((M,T)\\) (which is a bounded convex polytope in an Euclidean space) is not empty, the volume function could be extended continuously to the compact closure of \\(AS(M,T)\\). Moreover, if the volume function has a local maximum point in \\(AS(M,T)\\) then either (a) \\(M\\) supports a constant sectional curvature Riemannian metric or (b) there exists a normal surface of positive Euler characteristic in the triangulation \\(T\\) such that it intersects each 3-simplex in at most one normal disk. In particular if \\(T\\) has only one vertex then the normal surface in case (b) is non-separating.  The author conjectures that also a maximum point in \\(\\partial AS(M,T)\\) will give rise either to a geometric structure on the manifold or to a special normal surface of non-negative Euler characteristic in the triangulation.","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q929269$6CF36D2C-B64C-445A-AA29-E25FC89145AC","rank":"normal"}],"P1447":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1447","hash":"685978595c9c73955f61297b003f418fbe5795c7","datavalue":{"value":{"entity-type":"item","numeric-id":929268,"id":"Q929268"},"type":"wikibase-entityid"},"datatype":"wikibase-item"},"type":"statement","id":"Q929269$630705FE-0348-408B-9B10-7B726A1E2732","rank":"normal"}],"P226":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"3c70959db83bb3351da86f0b2d926a9c118da288","datavalue":{"value":"57M50","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q929269$F2FB9DDB-B0EB-4C39-A2A7-434D725302D8","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P226","hash":"5fd2e677adbf3c5d393403c254a42eb2ef993b52","datavalue":{"value":"57N10","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q929269$481E7D6F-5930-46F3-BC91-162FB5894D35","rank":"normal"}],"P1451":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1451","hash":"4b1020ed2835165b07684926d3dda72cb4e7f5a2","datavalue":{"value":"5288648","type":"string"},"datatype":"external-id"},"type":"statement","id":"Q929269$DB3E1189-BB8C-41C6-9559-A00AD6E84A96","rank":"normal"}],"P1450":[{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"9dc4b04c426bcead377435cee900fcb531e3be1b","datavalue":{"value":"3-manifolds","type":"string"},"datatype":"string"},"type":"statement","id":"Q929269$3819256B-8B99-476F-8F83-9820E0422CF1","rank":"normal"},{"mainsnak":{"snaktype":"value","property":"P1450","hash":"7b7efc043a12796ac70ad64c19e75bc741432cc1","datavalue":{"value":"constant
