In this paper we present a classical construction of the Hyperbolic structure of the complement of a link in the sense of Thurston for the particular case of the Borromean rings link. As this is nothing new, the aim of this paper is to…
We consider in this work representations of the of the fundamental group of the 3-punctured sphere in ${\rm PU}(2,1)$ such that the boundary loops are mapped to ${\rm PU}(2,1)$. We provide a system of coordinates on the corresponding…
In this paper, we give a complete description of the representations of all upper triangular complex Kleinian subgroups of PSL(3,C). In https://doi.org/10.1007/s00574-021-00254-9 we show that any solvable group is virtually triangularizable…
Let $S$ be a surface of genus $g$ at least $2$. A representation $\rho:\pi_1S\longrightarrow \text{PSL}_2\Bbb R$ is said to be purely hyperbolic if its image consists only of hyperbolic elements other than the identity. We may wonder under…
We show the set of faithful representations of a closed orientable hyperbolic surface group is dense in both irreducible components of the PSL(2,K) representation variety, where K is the field of real or complex numbers, answering a…
We construct a Cantor set in S^3 whose complement admits a complete hyperbolic metric.
We prove that every complete finite-volume hyperbolic 3-manifold $M$ that is tessellated into (embedded) right-angled regular polyhedra (dodecahedra or ideal octahedra) embeds geodesically in a complete finite-volume connected orientable…
Let $S$ be a closed surface of genus $g$. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between hyperbolic cone-structure on $S$ and representations of the fundamental group into $\text{PSL}_2\Bbb R$. We consider surfaces of genus greater…
We describe a new method of producing equations for the canonical component of representation variety of a knot group into $PSL_2(\mathbb{C})$. Unlike known methods, this one does not involve any polyhedral decomposition or triangulation of…
Ivansic proved that there is a link $L$ of five tori in $S^4$ with hyperbolic complement. We describe $L$ explicitly with pictures, study its properties, and discover that $L$ is in many aspects similar to the Borromean rings in $S^3$. In…
A hyperbolic conjugacy class in the modular group PSL(2,Z) corresponds to a closed geodesic in the modular orbifold. Some of these geodesics virtually bound immersed surfaces, and some do not; the distinction is related to the polyhedral…
Let $Sp(2,1)$ be the isometry group of the quaternionic hyperbolic plane ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. An element $g$ in $Sp(2,1)$ is `hyperbolic' if it fixes exactly two points on the boundary of ${{\bf H}_{\mathbb H}}^2$. We classify pairs…
We provide the first examples of strongly dense representations of a hyperbolic 3-manifold group into $SL(4,\mathbb{R})$ and $SU(3,1)$ i.e. representations where every pair of non-commuting elements has Zariski dense image. Our examples are…
We prove that every finite group is the orientation-preserving isometry group of the complement of a hyperbolic link in the 3-sphere.
Geometric and dynamic properties of embeddings of SL(2,Z) into the Cremona group are studied. Infinitely many non-conjugate embeddings which preserve the type (i.e. which send elliptic, parabolic and hyperbolic elements onto elements of the…
We construct first examples of discrete geometrically finite subgroups of PU(2,1) which contain parabolic elements, and are isomorphic to surface groups.
We show that for a representation of the fundamental group of a triangulated closed 3-manifold (not necessarily hyperbolic) into $\PSL$ so that any edge loop has non-trivial image under the representation, there exist uncountably many…
We study complex hyperbolic disc bundles over closed orientable surfaces that arise from discrete and faithful representations H_n->PU(2,1), where H_n is the fundamental group of the orbifold S^2(2,...,2) and thus contains a surface group…
Given a group $G$, its poset of hyperbolic structures $\mathcal{H}(G)$ encodes all the possible cobounded actions of $G$ on hyperbolic spaces. In this article, we describe the poset $\mathcal{H}(H_n)$ for every Houghton group $H_n$, $n \geq…
We prove that a family of complex hyperbolic ultra-parallel $[m_1, m_2, m_3]$-triangle group representations, where \( m_3 > 0 \), is discrete and faithful if and only if the isometry \( R_1(R_2R_1)^nR_3 \) is non-elliptic for some positive…
