Generalized Riley Slices of Parameter Spaces of Kleinian Groups

Mathematics Colloquium

Time and place

1 PM on Thursday, March 31st, 2011; NAC 6-113

Linda Keen (Lehman College and CUNY graduate center)

Abstract

In this talk we will discuss how to extend the theory of pleating rays for those Kleinian groups in the Riley Slice to groups representing orbifolds. We will show how the dynamics of the boundary of this space can be described by continued fractions. We will also talk about discrete subgroups outside the Riley slice that represent nite volume groups andshow how they also correspond to boundary points.
