Abstract: The authors prove that a 3-dimensional small cover M is a Haken manifold if and only if M is aspherical or equivalently the underlying simple polytope is a flag polytope. In addition, they find that M being Haken is also equivalent to the existence of a Riemannian metric with non-positive sectional curvature on M.
