0 Some new behaviour in the deformation theory of Kleinian groups
نویسنده
چکیده
Anderson and Canary ([1]) have constructed examples of 3-manifolds M for which the space of convex co-compact representations of π1(M) in PSL2(C) is disconnected but has connected closure (in the topology of algebraic convergence). More precisely, they showed that for their examples the intersection of the closures of any two path components of the space of convex co-compact representations is non-empty. We study these examples and show that there is a connected, uncountable set of geometrically finite representations which is contained in the closure of every path component of the space of convex co-compact representations.

A new indexed approach to render the attractors of Kleinian groups
One widespread procedure to render the attractor of Kleinian groups, appearing in the renown book [8], wantshuge memory resources to compute and store the results. We present a new faster and lighter version that drops the original array and pulls out group elements from integers.
متن کاملA brief survey of the deformation theory of Kleinian groups
Kleinian groups, which are the discrete groups of orientation preserving isometries of hyperbolic space, have been studied for a number of years, and have been of particular interest since the work of Thurston in the late 1970s on the geometrization of compact 3-manifolds. A Kleinian group can be viewed either as an isolated, single group, or as one of a member of a family or continuum of group...
متن کاملDivergent sequences of Kleinian groups
One of the basic problems in studying topological structures of deformation spaces for Kleinian groups is to find a criterion to distinguish convergent sequences from divergent sequences. In this paper, we shall give a sufficient condition for sequences of Kleinian groups isomorphic to surface groups to diverge in the deformation spaces. AMS Classification 57M50; 30F40

Suppose Γ1 and Γ2 are two convex co-compact co-infinite volume discrete subgroups of PSL(2,C), so that there exists a C∞ diffeomorphism ψ : Ω(Γ1)/Γ1 → Ω(Γ2)/Γ2 that induces an isomorphism φ : Γ1 → Γ2. For fixed s ∈ C, let Si(s) be the scattering operator on Ω(Γi)/Γi (i = 1, 2). Define Srel(s) = S1(s)− ψ ∗S2(s), where ψ ∗S2(s) is the pull-back of S2(s) to an operator acting on the appropriate co...
متن کاملOn the Maskit Slice of 4-dimensional Kleinian Punctured Torus Groups
Let Γ be a 3-dimensional Kleinian punctured torus group with accidental parabolics. The deformation space of Γ in the group of Möbius transformations on the 2-sphere is well-known as the Maskit slice of punctured torus groups. In this paper, we study the deformation space of Γ in the group of Möbius transformations on the 3-sphere, where Γ is naturally regarded as a 4-dimensional Kleinian group...
