We generalize Bonahon's characterization of geometrically infinite torsion-free discrete subgroups of PSL(2, $\mathbb{C}$) to geometrically infinite discrete isometry subgroups in the case of rank 1 symmetric spaces, and, under the assumption of bounded torsion, to the case of negatively pinched Hadamard manifolds. Eve…

3-manifolds have covers with infinitely many ideal triangulations.

This paper considers "geometric" ideal triangulations of cusped hyperbolic 3-manifolds, i.e. decompositions into positive volume ideal hyperbolic tetrahedra. We exhibit infinitely many geometric ideal triangulations of the figure eight knot complement. As far as we know, this is the first construction of infinitely man…

In this paper, we generalize Bonahon's characterization of geometrically infinite torsion-free discrete subgroups of PSL(2, $\mathbb{C}$) to geometrically infinite discrete subgroups $Γ$ of isometries of negatively pinched Hadamard manifolds $X$. We then generalize a theorem of Bishop to prove that every discrete geome…

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 equals zero. For finitely generated, geometrically infinite Kleinian groups, we prove…

In this paper we extend Thurston's hyperbolic Dehn surgery theorem to a class of geometrically infinite hyperbolic 3-manifolds. As an application we prove a modest density theorem for Kleinian groups. We also discuss hyperbolic Dehn surgery on geometrically finite hypebolic cone-manifolds.

New surfaces show horocyclic flow isn't always minimal.

This is a summary of the material for 3 lectures on geometrically finite and infinite Kleinian groups delivered by the author at a workshop held at Tata Institute of Fundamental Research in April 2014.

We prove a partial generalization of Bonahon's tameness result to surfaces inside irreducible 3-manifolds with hyperbolic fundamental group. Bonahon's result states that geometrically infinite ends of freely indecomposable hyperbolic 3-manifolds are simply degenerate. It is easy to see that a geometrically infinite end…

Let $X_{0}$ be a complete hyperbolic surface of infinite type with geodesic boundary which admits a countable pair of pants decomposition. As an application of the Basmajian identity for complete bordered hyperbolic surfaces of infinite type with limit sets of 1-dimensional measure zero, we define an asymmetric metric …

Geodesics grow infinitely in certain Finsler manifolds.

In this article we give the realization of the Klein's Program for geometrical structures (Riemannian spaces and fiber bundles with connection) with arbitrary variable curvature within the framework of infinite deformed groups. These groups generalize gauge groups to the case of nontrivial action on the base space of b…

The paper characterizes sets with infinite hyperbolic convex hull volume.

The topological type of a non-compact Riemann surface is determined by its ends space and the ends having infinite genus. In this paper for a non-compact Riemann Surface $S_{m,s}$ with $s$ ends and exactly $m$ of them with infinite genus, such that $m,s\in \mathbb{N}$ and $1<m\leq s$, we give a precise description of t…

We define and study analogs of curve graphs for infinite type surfaces. Our definitions use the geometry of a fixed surface and vertices of our graphs are infinite multicurves which are bounded in both a geometric and a topological sense. We show that the graphs we construct are generally connected, infinite diameter a…

We enumerate a necessary condition for the existence of infinitely many geometrically distinct, non-constant, prime closed geodesics on an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold $M$. That is, we show that any Riemannian metric on $M$ admits infinitely many prime closed geodesics such that the energy functional $E:ΛM\to\m…

We describe a family of 4-dimensional hyperbolic orbifolds, constructed by deforming an infinite volume orbifold obtained from the ideal, hyperbolic 24-cell by removing two walls. This family provides an infinite number of infinitesimally rigid, infinite covolume, geometrically finite discrete subgroups of the isometry…

Any action of a group $Γ$ on $\mathbb H^3$ by isometries yields a class in degree three bounded cohomology by pulling back the volume cocycle to $Γ$. We prove that the bounded cohomology of finitely generated Kleinian groups without parabolic elements distinguishes the asymptotic geometry of geometrically infinite ends…

This article presents some methods to control the bottom of the spectrum of the Laplacian $λ_0$ on hyperbolic surfaces with infinite volume. Our first result bounds the $λ_0$ of a geometrically finite surface in terms of the geometry of its convex core. We then focus on infinite type periodic hyperbolic surfaces built …

The horocyclic flow on geometrically infinite surfaces shows recurrent irregular orbits or non-minimal closures.

New constraints found for algebro-geometric subgroups of mapping class groups.

This paper opens the series of articles supplemental to the series (hep-th/9405050,q-alg/9610026,q-alg/9611003,q-alg/9611019,funct-an/9611003), which also lies in lines of general ideology exposed in the review (mp_arc/96-477). The main purpose of the activity, which has its origin and motivation presumably in the auth…

The study finds conditions for groups acting on CAT(0) cube complexes to have infinite girth.

Our aim here is to investigate the holomorphic geometric structures on compact complex manifolds which may not be Kähler. We prove that holomorphic geometric structures of affine type on compact Calabi-Yau manifolds with polystable tangent bundle (with respect to some Gauduchon metric on it) are locally homogeneous. In…

We prove geometric superrigidity for actions of cocompact lattices in semisimple Lie groups of higher rank on infinite dimensional Riemannian manifolds of nonpositive curvature and finite telescopic dimension.

A 3D space of hyperbolic manifolds is connected but not path-connected.

We consider stochastic versions of Euler--Arnold equations using the infinite-dimensional geometric approach as pioneered by Ebin and Marsden. For the Euler equation on a compact manifold (possibly with smooth boundary) we establish local existence and uniqueness of a strong solution (in the stochastic sense) in spaces…

We prove general superrigidity results for actions of irreducible lattices on CAT(0) spaces; first, in terms of the ideal boundary, and then for the intrinsic geometry (including for infinite-dimensional spaces). In particular, one obtains a new and self-contained proof of Margulis' superrigidity theorem for uniform ir…

Following the lines of the celebrated Riemannian result of Gromoll and Meyer, we use infinite dimensional equivariant Morse theory to establish the existence of infinitely many geometrically distinct closed geodesics in a class of globally hyperbolic stationary Lorentzian manifolds.

Paper finds new 3D shapes that can be inside a 4D space.

We revisit the geodesic approach to ideal hydrodynamics and present a related geometric framework for Newton's equations on groups of diffeomorphisms and spaces of probability densities. The latter setting is sufficiently general to include equations of compressible and incompressible fluid dynamics, magnetohydrodynami…

In this paper we study the equidistribution of expanding horospheres in infinite volume geometrically finite rank one locally symmetric manifolds and apply it to the orbital counting problem in apollonian sphere packing.

We prove the meromorphic extension to C for the resolvent of the Laplacian on a class of geometrically finite hyperbolic manifolds with infinite volume and we give a polynomial bound on the number of resonances. This class notably contains the geometrically finite quotients with rational non-maximal rank cusps previous…

The study finds infinite geodesics on manifolds with specific homotopy group properties.

Let $φ:\mathcal{C}(S)\to\mathcal{C}(S')$ be a simplicial isomorphism between the curve graphs of two infinite-type surfaces. In this paper we show that in this situation $S$ and $S'$ are homeomorphic and $φ$ is induced by a homeomorphism $h:S\to S'$.

The paper extends Nambu-Poisson structures to infinite dimensions.

We provide examples of finitely generated infinite covolume subgroups of $PSL(2,R)^r$ with a "big" limit set, e.g. that contains an open subset of the geometric boundary. They are given by the so called semi-arithmetic Fuchsian groups admitting modular embeddings.
