We give a brief overview of the current state of the study of the deformation theory of Kleinian groups. The topics covered include the definition of the deformation space of a Kleinian group and of several important subspaces; a discussion…

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…

We prove a continuity property for ending invariants of convergent sequences of Kleinian surface groups. We also analyze the bounded curve sets of such groups and show that their projections to non-annular subsurfaces lie a bounded…

It is known that, for the algebra of functions on a Kleinian singularity, the parameter space of deformations and the parameter space of quantizations coincide. We prove that, for a Kleinian singularity of type $\mathbf{A}$ or $\mathbf{D}$,…

Kleinian singularities, i.e., the varieties corresponding to the algebras of invariants of Kleinian groups are of fundamental importance for Algebraic geometry, Representation theory and Singularity theory. The filtered deformations of…

The goal of these lectures is to give an introduction to the study of the fundamental group of a Klein surface. We start by reviewing the topological classification of Klein surfaces and by explaining the relation with real algebraic…

In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition in which a sequence of Kleinian punctured torus groups converges. This result tells us that every exotically convergent sequence of Kleinian punctured torus groups is obtained by…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$. Let $D$ be a $p$-divisible group over $k$ which is not isoclinic. Let $\scrD$ (resp. $\scrD_k$) be the formal deformation space of $D$ over $\Spf(W(k))$ (resp. over…

We study deformations of the discrete Heisenberg group acting properly discontinuously on the Heisenberg group from the left and right and obtain a complete description of the deformation space.

This paper contains some results about Teichm\"uller spaces of non-orientable surfaces (Klein surfaces). We prove several theorems giving isomorphisms between deformation spaces of Klein surfaces. These results show the similarity between…

We examine the internal geometry of a Kleinian surface group and its relations to the asymptotic geometry of its ends, using the combinatorial structure of the complex of curves on the surface. Our main results give necessary conditions for…

Troels Jorgensen conjectured that the algebraic and geometric limits of an algebraically convergent sequence of isomorphic Kleinian groups agree if there are no new parabolics in the algebraic limit. We prove that this conjecture holds in…

We survey the analogy between Kleinian groups and subgroups of the mapping class group of a surface.

The theory of surfaces in Euclidean space can be naturally formulated in the more general context of Legendre surfaces into the space of contact elements. We address the question of deformability of Legendre surfaces with respect to the…

We prove that a Kleinian surface groups is determined, up to conjugacy in the isometry group of $\mathbb H^3$, by its simple marked length spectrum. As a first application, we show that a discrete faithful representation of the fundamental…

We review the theory of splittings of hyperbolic groups, as determined by the topology of the boundary. We give explicit examples of certain phenomena and then use this to describe limit sets of Kleinian groups up to homeomorphism.

Classical Kleinian groups are discrete subgroups of $PSL(2,\C)$ acting on the complex projective line $\P^1$, which actually coincides with the Riemann sphere, with non-empty region of discontinuity. These can also be regarded as the…

A Kleinian manifold Y is a quotient of a rank-one symmetric space of non-compact type by a convex-cocompact discrete group of isometries. We describe the spectral decomposition of the space of square integrable sections of locally…

An interesting problem in classical differential geometry is to find methods to prove that two surfaces defined by different charts actually coincide up to position in space. In a previous paper we proposed a method in this direction for…

This article gives an up-to-date account of the theory of discrete group actions on non-Riemannian homogeneous spaces. As an introduction of the motifs of this article, we begin by reviewing the current knowledge of possible global forms of…
