Bers Slices Are Zariski Dense

چکیده
Each Bers slice is a holomorphically embedded copy of Teichmüller space within XC(S). While it follows that BY can be locally described as the common zero locus of finitely many analytic functions on XC(S), it is known that the Bers slice is not a locally algebraic set [DK]—this is used to show that W. Thurston’s skinning map is not a constant function [DK]. We prove a stronger result about the transcendence of BY :

On the Shape of Bers–maskit Slices
We consider complex one-dimensional Bers–Maskit slices through the deformation space of quasifuchsian groups which uniformize a pair of punctured tori. In these slices, the pleating locus on one of the components of the convex hull boundary of the quotient three-manifold has constant rational pleating and constant hyperbolic length. We show that the boundary of such a slice is a Jordan curve wh...
متن کاملSpirals in the Boundary of Slices of Quasi-fuchsian Space
We prove that the Bers and Maskit slices of the quasi-Fuchsian space of a once-punctured torus have a dense, uncountable set of points in their boundaries about which the boundary spirals infinitely.
متن کاملOn Discreteness of Commensurators
We begin by showing that commensurators of Zariski dense subgroups of isometry groups of symmetric spaces of non-compact type are discrete provided that the limit set on the Furstenberg boundary is not invariant under the action of a (virtual) simple factor. In particular for rank one or simple Lie groups, Zariski dense subgroups with non-empty domain of discontinuity have discrete commensurato...

variety). For each i, let φi(x) be a C-dense quantifier-free Li-formula with parameters from K. Then we can find a K-definable rational function f : C → P which is non-constant, and has the property that the divisor f−1(0) is a sum of distinct points in ⋂n i=1 φi(K), with no multipliticities. (In particular, the support of the divisor contains no points from C(K)\C(K) and no points from C \ C.)...
متن کاملConstructing thin subgroups in SL(4,R)
Let G be a semi-simple Lie group and Γ < G be a lattice. This paper is motivated by the attempt to understand the infinite index subgroup structure of Γ . In particular, to understand the possibilities for infinite index, finitely generated, freely indecomposable, Zariski dense subgroups of Γ . The study of Zariski dense subgroups of semi-simple Lie groups has a long and rich history. Some high...
