Exotic Projective Structures and Boundary of Quasi-fuchsian Space

چکیده
Let P (S) denote the space of projective structures on a closed surface S. It is known that the subset Q(S) P (S) of projective structures with quasiFuchsian holonomy has in nitely many connected components. In this paper, we investigate the con guration of these components. In particular, we show that the closure of any exotic component of Q(S) intersects the closure of the standard component of Q(S). As a consequence, Q(S) has connected closure in P (S). We also mention the complexity of the boundary of the quasi-Fuchsian space.

Exotic Projective Structures and Quasi-fuchsian Space
1. Introduction. Let S be an oriented closed surface of genus g > 1. A projec-tive structure on S is a maximal system of local coordinates modeled on the Riemann sphere C, whose transition functions are Möbius transformations. For a given pro-jective structure on S, we have a pair (f, ρ) of a local homeomorphism f from the universal cover S of S to C, called a developing map, and a group homomo...
متن کاملThe Grafting Map of Teichmüller Space
1.1 Statement and Context. One of the underlying principles in the study of Kleinian groups is that aspects of the complex projective geometry of quotients of Ĉ by the groups reflect properties of the threedimensional hyperbolic geometry of the quotients of H by the groups. Yet, even though it has been over thirty-five years since Lipman Bers wrote down a holomorphic embedding of the Teichmülle...
متن کاملQuasi-fuchsian 3-manifolds and Metrics on Teichm¨uller Space
An almost Fuchsian 3-manifold is a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which contains an incompressible closed minimal surface with principal curvatures in the range of (−1, 1). Such a 3-manifold M admits a foliation of parallel surfaces, whose locus in Teichmüller space is represented as a path γ, we show that γ joins the conformal structures of the two components of the conformal boundary of M . Moreover...
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 کاملExotic projective structures and quasifuchsian spaces II
Let P (S) be the space of projective structures on a closed surface S of genus g > 1 and let Q(S) be the subset of P (S) of projective structures with quasifuchsian holonomy. It is known that Q(S) consists of infinitely many connected components. In this paper, we will show that the closure of any exotic component of Q(S) is not a topological manifold with boundary and that any two components o...
