The Maskit embedding M of a surface \Sigma is the space of geometrically finite groups on the boundary of quasifuchsian space for which the `top' end is homeomorphic to \Sigma, while the `bottom' end consists of two triply punctured…

We consider the following question: Which parameters in the extension of a rational pleating ray across the boundary of $\Cal M$, the Maskit embedding of the Teichm\"uller space of once punctured tori correspond to a Kleinian group? Using…

In this paper, we make use of the relations between the braid and mapping class groups of a compact, connected, non-orientable surface N without boundary and those of its orientable double covering S to study embeddings of these groups and…

In this paper we give a complete description of the space $ \QF $ of quasifuchsian punctured torus groups in terms of what we call {\em pleating invariants}. These are natural invariants of the boundary $\bch$ of the convex core of the…

In this paper, we classify completely hyperbolic 3-manifolds corresponding to geometric limits of Kleinian surface groups isomorphic to $\pi_1(S)$ for a finite-type hyperbolic surface $S$. In the first of the three main theorems, we…

In [4]: `The Riley slice of Schottky space', (Proc. London Math. Soc. 69 (1994), 72-90), Keen and Series analysed the theory of pleating coordinates in the context of the Riley slice of Schottky space R, the deformation space of a genus two…

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…

Let M be a hyperbolic 3-manifold with nonempty totally geodesic boundary. We prove that there are upper and lower bounds on the diameter of the skinning map of M that depend only on the volume of the hyperbolic structure with totally…

We study maximal representations of surface groups $\rho:\pi_1(\Sigma)\to\mathrm{SO}_0(2,n+1)$ via the introduction of $\rho$-invariant pleated surfaces inside the pseudo-Riemannian space $\mathbb{H}^{2,n}$ associated to maximal geodesic…

A fundamental object in a hyperbolic 3-manifold M is its convex core C(M), defined as the smallest closed non-empty convex subset of M. We investigate the way the geometry of the boundary S of C(M) varies as we vary the hyperbolic metric of…

We characterize the asymptotic behaviour of the compression associated to a uniform embedding into some Lp-space for a large class of groups including connected Lie groups with exponential growth and word-hyperbolic finitely generated…

We show that any grafting ray in Teichm\"{u}ller space determined by an arational lamination or a multi-curve is (strongly) asymptotic to a Teichm\"{u}ller geodesic ray. As a consequence the projection of a generic grafting ray to moduli…

We consider the asymptotic behavior of properly embedded minimal surfaces in the product of the hyperbolic plane with the line, taking into account the fact that there is more than one natural compactification of this space. This provides a…

The conformal boundary of a hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ is a union of Riemann surfaces. If any of these Riemann surfaces has a nontrivial Teichm\"uller space, then the hyperbolic metric of $M$ can be deformed quasi-isometrically. These…

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…

In a paper of Menasco and Reid, it is conjectured that there exist no hyperbolic knots in S^3 for which the complement contains a closed embedded totally geodesic surface. In this note, we show that one can get "as close as possible" to a…

Let $S$ be any closed hyperbolic surface and let $\lambda$ be a maximal geodesic lamination on $S$. The amount of bending of an abstract pleated surface (homeomorphic to $S$) with the pleating locus $\lambda$ is completely determined by an…

A fibered hyperbolic 3-manifold induces a map from the hyperbolic plane to hyperbolic 3-space, the respective universal covers of the fibre and the manifold. The induced map is an embedding that is exponentially distorted in terms of the…

Let $G$ and $\tilde G$ be Kleinian groups whose limit sets $S$ and $\tilde S$, respectively, are homeomorphic to the standard Sierpi\'nski carpet, and such that every complementary component of each of $S$ and $\tilde S$ is a round disc. We…

Convex co-compact 3-dimensional hyperbolic manifolds are uniquely determined by the pleating measured lamination on the boundary of their convex core.
