In the Tradition of Thurston III

Beschreibung

William Thurston’s ideas have altered the course of twentieth century mathematics, and they continue to have a significant influence on succeeding generations of mathematicians.  The purpose of the present volume and of the other volumes in the same series is to provide a collection of articles that allows the reader to learn the important aspects of Thurston’s heritage. The topics covered in this volume include Kleinian groups, holomorphic motions, earthquakes from the Anti-de Sitter point of view, the Thurston  and Weil--Petersson metrics on Teichmüller space, 3-manifolds,  geometric structures, dynamics on surfaces, homeomorphism groups of 2-manifolds and orbifolds.
