چکیده
This paper reports experiments of materializing recent new discovered mathematical surfaces, 3D quasi-Fuchsian fractals. Three different models in glass, plastic, and metal are created to realize rich mathematical properties including selfsimilarity, 3-embeddable, simply-connected, and complicated surface consisting of infinite number of cusps. Different models can complementary provide mathematicians and anyone unprofessional better understanding of the mathematical properties of the new discovery.

Cosh-Gordon equation and quasi-Fuchsian groups
We show propositions in favour of relations between the phase space of 3D gravity, moduli of quasi-Fuchsian groups, global solutions of cosh-Gordon equations and minimal surfaces in hyperbolic spaces.
متن کاملComplex hyperbolic quasi-Fuchsian groups
A complex hyperbolic quasi-Fuchsian group is a discrete, faithful, type preserving and geometrically finite representation of a surface group as a subgroup of the group of holomorphic isometries of complex hyperbolic space. Such groups are direct complex hyperbolic generalisations of quasi-Fuchsian groups in three dimensional (real) hyperbolic geometry. In this article we present the current st...
متن کاملLiouville Action and Weil-Petersson Metric on Deformation Spaces, Global Kleinian Reciprocity and Holography
We rigorously define the Liouville action functional for the finitely generated, purely loxodromic quasi-Fuchsian group using homology and cohomology double complexes naturally associated with the group action. We prove that classical action – the critical value of the Liouville action functional, considered as a function on the quasiFuchsian deformation space, is an antiderivative of a 1-form ...
متن کاملOn the continuity of bending
We examine the dependence of the deformation obtained by bending quasi-Fuchsian structures on the bending lamination. We show that when we consider bending quasi-Fuchsian structures on a closed surface, the conditions obtained by Epstein and Marden to relate weak convergence of arbitrary laminations to the convergence of bending cocycles are not necessary. Bending may not be continuous on the s...
متن کاملHolomorphic Factorization of Determinants of Laplacians Using Quasi-fuchsian Uniformization
For a quasi-Fuchsian group Γ with ordinary set Ω, and ∆n the Laplacian on n-differentials on Γ\Ω, we define a notion of a Bers dual basis φ1, . . . , φ2d for ker∆n. We prove that det∆n/det〈φj , φk〉, is, up to an anomaly computed by Takhtajan and the second author in [TT03a], the modulus squared of a holomorphic function F (n), where F (n) is a quasi-Fuchsian analogue of the Selberg zeta Z(n).
