We show that for any closed surface $S$ there is an explict neighborhood $V$ of the fuchsian locus in quasifuchsian space $\mathsf{QF}(S)$ such that for every representation $\rho\in V$ which is not fuchsian, there is a proper affine action…

This survey is an introduction to the geometry of co-Minkowksi space, the space of unoriented spacelike hyperplanes of the Minkowski space. Affine deformations of cocompact lattices of hyperbolic isometries act on it, in a way similar to…

We show the existence of a convex compact domain in a quasi-Fuchsian manifold such that the induced metric on its boundary coincides with a prescribed surface metric of curvature $K\geq-1$ in the sense of A. D. Alexandrov.

It is well known that every quasi-Fuchsian manifold admits at least one closed incompressible minimal surface, and at most finitely many of them. In this paper, for any prescribed integer $N>0$, we construct a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which…

We prove that finitely generated higher dimensional Kleinian groups with small critical exponent are always convex-cocompact. Along the way, we also prove some geometric properties for any complete pinched negatively curved manifold with…

We consider finite 2-complexes X that arise as quotients of Fuchsian buildings by subgroups of the combinatorial automorphism group, which we assume act freely and cocompactly. We show that locally CAT(-1) metrics on X which are piecewise…

We prove hyperbolic 3-manifolds are geometrically inflexible: a unit quasiconformal deformation of a Kleinian group extends to an equivariant bi-Lipschitz diffeomorphism between quotients whose pointwise bi-Lipschitz constant decays…

We show that a locally Ahlfors 2-regular and locally linearly locally contractible metric surface is locally quasisymmetrically equivalent to the disk. We also discuss an application of this result to the problem of characterizing surfaces…

We introduce and study a novel uniformization metric model for the quasi-Fuchsian space QF(S) of a closed oriented surface S, defined through a class of C-valued bilinear forms on S, called Bers metrics, which coincide with hyperbolic…

This article analyzes sublinearly quasisymmetric homeo-morphisms (generalized quasisymmetric mappings), and draws applications to the sublinear large-scale geometry of negatively curved groups and spaces. It is proven that those…

We study a generalization of the Fuchsian triangle groups to the hyperbolic 3-space, namely, the groups generated by half-turns in three hyperbolic lines. The role of the hyperbolic triangles is now played by the right-angled hexagons. This…

We characterize sequences of Kleinian surface groups with convergent subsequences in terms of the asymptotic behavior of the ending invariants of the associated hyperbolic 3-manifolds. Asymptotic behavior of end invariants in a convergent…

Let $QF(S)$ be the quasifuchsian space of a closed surface $S$ of genus $g\geq 2$. We construct a new mapping class group invariant K\"ahler metric on $QF(S)$. It is an extension of the Weil-Petersson metric onthe Teichm\"uller space…

Semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups is a wide class of discrete groups of isometries of the hyperbolic plane which includes arithmetic Fuchsian groups, hyperbolic triangle groups, groups admitting a modular embedding, and others. We introduce a…

The boundary at infinity of a quasifuchsian hyperbolic manifold is equiped with a holomorphic quadratic differential. Its horizontal measured foliation $f$ can be interpreted as the natural analog of the measured bending lamination on the…

We find a new class of invariant metrics existing on the tangent bundle of any given almost-Hermitian manifold. We focus here on the case of Riemannian surfaces, which yield new examples of K\"ahlerian Ricci-flat manifolds in four real…

We consider properly discontinuous, isometric, convex cocompact actions of surface groups on a CAT(-1) space. We show that the limit set of such an action, equipped with the canonical visual metric, is a (weak) quasicircle in the sense of…

The triangular ratio metric is studied in subdomains of the complex plane and Euclidean $n$-space. Various inequalities are proven for it. The main results deal with the behavior of this metric under quasiconformal maps. We also study the…

We provide a proof that the classes of finitely generated Kleinian groups and of three-manifold groups are quasi-isometrically rigid.

Geometrically infinite Kleinain groups have nonconical limit sets with the cardinality of the continuum. In this paper, we construct a geometrically infinite Fuchsian group such that the Hausdorff dimension of the nonconical limit set…
