The paper contains a new proof that a complete, non-compact hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ with finite volume contains an immersed, closed, quasi-Fuchsian surface.

Study on Cheeger constant in specific hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

In this paper, we prove that if a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold $M$ contains a simple closed geodesic with complex length $\Lscr=l+iθ$ such that $θ/l\gg{}1$, then it contains at least two minimal surfaces which are incompressible in $M$.

In this paper, we prove that if a quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifold contains a minimal surface whose principle curvature is less than 1, then it admits a foliation such that each leaf is a surface of constant mean curvature. The key method that we use here is volume preserving mean curvature flow.

The study bounds the number of quasi-Fuchsian surface subgroups in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

Study mean curvature flow in hyperbolic 3-manifolds, proving foliations and existence of minimal surfaces.

We show that every closed, virtually fibered hyperbolic 3-manifold contains immersed, quasi-Fuchsian surfaces with convex cores of arbitrarily large thickness.

Formula derived for FUP exponent in quasi-Fuchsian groups.

Study shows infimum of dual volume equals convex core volume for hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

This paper proves that every finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifold M contains a ubiquitous collection of closed, immersed, quasi-Fuchsian surfaces. These surfaces are ubiquitous in the sense that their preimages in the universal cover separate any pair of disjoint, non-asymptotic geodesic planes. The proof relies in a cr…

We rigorously define the Liouville action functional for finitely generated, purely loxodromic quasi-Fuchsian group using homology and cohomology double complexes naturally associated with the group action. We prove that the classical action - the critical point of the Liouville action functional, considered as a funct…

The paper shows nearly-Fuchsian properties for certain hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

Among other things, we prove the following two topologcal statements about closed hyperbolic 3-manifolds. First, every rational second homology class of a closed hyperbolic 3-manifold has a positve integral multiple represented by an oriented connected closed $π_1$-injectively immersed quasi-Fuchsian subsurface. Second…

The study proves nearly geodesic surfaces are filling in hyperbolic 3-manifolds.

Geometrization theorem, fibered case: Every three-manifold that fibers over the circle admits a geometric decomposition. Double limit theorem: for any sequence of quasi-Fuchsian groups whose controlling pair of conformal structures tends toward a pair of projectively measured laminations that bind the surface, there is…

Unique minimizing maps from hyperbolic surfaces to quasi-Fuchsian 3-manifolds are studied.

An almost Fuchsian 3-manifold is a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which contains an incompressible closed minimal surface with principal curvatures in the range of $(-1,1)$. Such a 3-manifold $M$ admits a foliation of parallel surfaces, whose locus in Teichmüller space is represented as a path $γ$, we show that $γ$ joins the …

In this paper, it is shown that every closed hyperbolic 3-manifold contains an immersed quasi-Fuchsian closed subsurface of odd Euler characteristic. The construction adopts the good pants method, and the primary new ingredient is an enhanced version of the connection principle, which allows one to connect any two fram…

We show that for any extreme curve in a 3-manifold M, there exist a canonical mean convex hull containing all least area disks spanning the curve. Similar result is true for asymptotic case in hyperbolic 3-space such that for any asymptotic curve, there is a canonical mean convex hull containing all minimal planes span…

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 exponentially in the distance form the boundary of the convex core for points in the th…

The paper proves CMC foliations for quasi-Fuchsian manifolds near the Fuchsian locus.

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

Alternative construction of quasi-Fuchsian flows using vortex equations.

We study the Liouville action for quasi-Fuchsian groups with parabolic and elliptic elements. In particular, when the group is Fuchsian, the contribution of elliptic elements to the classical Liouville action is derived in terms of the Bloch-Wigner functions. We prove the first and second variation formulas for the cla…

Measuring foliations at infinity of quasi-Fuchsian manifolds, proving filling pairs and showing realisation.

We show that every hyperbolic knot complement contains a closed quasi-Fuchsian surface.

Study compares metrics from negative curvature and quasi-Fuchsian representations.

We compare critical exponent for quasi-Fuchsian groups acting on the hyperbolic 3-space, $\mathbb{H}^3$, and on invariant disks embedded in $\mathbb{H}^3$. We give a rigidity theorem for all embedded surfaces when the action is Fuchsian and a rigidity theorem for negatively curved surfaces when the action is quasi-Fuch…

In this paper, we study the topology of the boundaries of quasi-Fuchsian spaces. We first show for a given convergent sequence of quasi-Fuchsian groups, how we can know the end invariant of the limit group from the information on the behaviour of conformal structures at infinity of the groups. This result gives rise to…

It is known that the almost-Kaehler anti-self-dual metrics on a given 4-manifold sweep out an open subset in the moduli space of anti-self-dual metrics. However, we show here by example that this subset is not generally closed, and so need not sweep out entire connected components in the moduli space. Our construction …

New foliations at infinity for quasi-Fuchsian manifolds near the Fuchsian locus are uniquely determined.

Limit sets of $\mathrm{AdS}$-quasi-Fuchsian groups of $\mathrm{PO}(n,2)$ are always Lipschitz submanifolds. The aim of this article is to show that they are never $\mathcal{C}^1$, except for the case of Fuchsian groups. As a byproduct we show that $\mathrm{AdS}$-quasi-Fuchsian groups that are not Fuchsian are Zariski d…

We use minimal (or CMC) surfaces to describe 3-dimensional hyperbolic, anti-de Sitter, de Sitter or Minkowski manifolds. We consider whether these manifolds admit ``nice'' foliations and explicit metrics, and whether the space of these metrics has a simple description in terms of Teichmüller theory. In the hyperbolic s…

Let Gamma be a cocompact lattice in SO(1,n). A representation rho: Gamma \to SO(2,n) is quasi-Fuchsian if it is faithfull, discrete, and preserves an acausal subset in the boundary of anti-de Sitter space - a particular case is the case of Fuchsian representations, ie. composition of the inclusions of Gamma in SO(1,n) …

Study foliations at infinity and constant mean curvature surfaces in quasi-Fuchsian manifolds.

The work is motivated by a result of Manin, which relates the Arakelov Green function on a compact Riemann surface to configurations of geodesics in a 3-dimensional hyperbolic handlebody with Schottky uniformization, having the Riemann surface as conformal boundary at infinity. A natural question is to what extent the …

In this paper, we will determine the topological types of hyperbolic 3-anifolds H^3/G such that G is a geometric limit of any algebraically convergent sequence of quasi-Fuchsian groups.

A new metric model for quasi-Fuchsian space defined by Bers metrics.

We show a few propositions in favour of relations between the phase space of 3D gravity, moduli of quasi-Fuchsian groups, global solutions of cosh-Gordon equations and minimal surfaces in hyperbolic spaces.

This paper proves unique determination of certain non-quasi-Fuchsian manifolds by their end structure and bending lamination.

The paper controls the geometry of surface subgroups in specific Kleinian groups.

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 contains at least $2^N$ such minimal surfaces. As a consequence, there exists so…

We show that the simultaneous (de)grafting of a complex projective structure with quasi-Fuchsian holonomy along a multicurve can be performed by a simple sequence of one bubbling and one debubbling. As a consequence we obtain that any complex projective structure with quasi-Fuchsian holonomy $ρ:π_1(S)\to$ PSL$_2\mathbb…

We prove that a sequence of quasi-Fuchsian representations for which the critical exponent converges to the topological dimension of the boundary of the group (larger than 2), converges up to subsequence and conjugacy to a totally geodesic representation.

Slim curves on 3-sphere help spherical CR uniformizations.

In this paper, we classify completely hyperbolic 3-manifolds corresponding to geometric limits of Kleinian surface groups isomorphic to $π_1(S)$ for a finite-type hyperbolic surface $S$. In the first of the three main theorems, we construct bi-Lipschitz model manifolds for such hyperbolic 3-manifolds, which have a stru…

We show that for any C^0 Jordan curve C in the sphere at infinity of H^3, there exists an embedded $H$-plane P_H in H^3 with asymptotic boundary C for any H in (-1,1). As a corollary, we proved that any quasi-Fuchsian hyperbolic 3-manifold M=SxR contains an H-surface S_H in the homotopy class of the core surface S for …
