Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this volume and of the other volumes in the same series is to provide a collection of surveys that allows the reader to learn the important aspects of William Thurston’s heritage. 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 topics covered in the present volume include com-plex hyperbolic Kleinian groups, Möbius structures, hyperbolic ends, cone 3-manifolds, Thurston’s norm, surgeries in representation varieties, triangulations, spaces of polygo-nal decompositions and of singular flat structures on surfaces, combination theorems in the theories of Kleinian groups, hyperbolic groups and holomorphic dynamics, the dynamics and iteration of rational maps, automatic groups, and the combinatorics of right-angled Artin groups.

Book Synopsis Complex Kleinian Groups by : Angel Cano
Download or read book Complex Kleinian Groups written by Angel Cano and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph lays down the foundations of the theory of complex Kleinian groups, a newly born area of mathematics whose origin traces back to the work of Riemann, Poincaré, Picard and many others. Kleinian groups are, classically, discrete groups of conformal automorphisms of the Riemann sphere, and these can be regarded too as being groups of holomorphic automorphisms of the complex projective line CP1. When going into higher dimensions, there is a dichotomy: Should we look at conformal automorphisms of the n-sphere?, or should we look at holomorphic automorphisms of higher dimensional complex projective spaces? These two theories are different in higher dimensions. In the first case we are talking about groups of isometries of real hyperbolic spaces, an area of mathematics with a long-standing tradition. In the second case we are talking about an area of mathematics that still is in its childhood, and this is the focus of study in this monograph. This brings together several important areas of mathematics, as for instance classical Kleinian group actions, complex hyperbolic geometry, chrystallographic groups and the uniformization problem for complex manifolds.
Book Synopsis Collected Works of William P. Thurston with Commentary by : Benson Farb
Download or read book Collected Works of William P. Thurston with Commentary written by Benson Farb and published by American Mathematical Society. This book was released on 2023-06-02 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Thurston's work has had a profound influence on mathematics. He connected whole mathematical subjects in entirely new ways and changed the way mathematicians think about geometry, topology, foliations, group theory, dynamical systems, and the way these areas interact. His emphasis on understanding and imagination in mathematical learning and thinking are integral elements of his distinctive legacy. This four-part collection brings together in one place Thurston's major writings, many of which are appearing in publication for the first time. Volumes I–III contain commentaries by the Editors. Volume IV includes a preface by Steven P. Kerckhoff. Volume II contains William Thurston's papers on the geometry and topology of 3-manifolds, on complexity, constructions and computers, and on geometric group theory.
Book Synopsis Weakly Modular Graphs and Nonpositive Curvature by : Jérémie Chalopin
Download or read book Weakly Modular Graphs and Nonpositive Curvature written by Jérémie Chalopin and published by American Mathematical Soc.. This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article investigates structural, geometrical, and topological characteri-zations and properties of weakly modular graphs and of cell complexes derived from them. The unifying themes of our investigation are various “nonpositive cur-vature” and “local-to-global” properties and characterizations of weakly modular graphs and their subclasses. Weakly modular graphs have been introduced as a far-reaching common generalization of median graphs (and more generally, of mod-ular and orientable modular graphs), Helly graphs, bridged graphs, and dual polar graphs occurring under different disguises (1–skeletons, collinearity graphs, covering graphs, domains, etc.) in several seemingly-unrelated fields of mathematics: * Metric graph theory * Geometric group theory * Incidence geometries and buildings * Theoretical computer science and combinatorial optimization We give a local-to-global characterization of weakly modular graphs and their sub-classes in terms of simple connectedness of associated triangle-square complexes and specific local combinatorial conditions. In particular, we revisit characterizations of dual polar graphs by Cameron and by Brouwer-Cohen. We also show that (disk-)Helly graphs are precisely the clique-Helly graphs with simply connected clique complexes. With l1–embeddable weakly modular and sweakly modular graphs we associate high-dimensional cell complexes, having several strong topological and geometrical properties (contractibility and the CAT(0) property). Their cells have a specific structure: they are basis polyhedra of even –matroids in the first case and orthoscheme complexes of gated dual polar subgraphs in the second case. We resolve some open problems concerning subclasses of weakly modular graphs: we prove a Brady-McCammond conjecture about CAT(0) metric on the orthoscheme.
Book Synopsis Fundamentals of Hyperbolic Manifolds by : R. D. Canary
Download or read book Fundamentals of Hyperbolic Manifolds written by R. D. Canary and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2006-04-13 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Presents reissued articles from two classic sources on hyperbolic manifolds. Part I is an exposition of Chapters 8 and 9 of Thurston's pioneering Princeton Notes; there is a new introduction describing recent advances, with an up-to-date bibliography, giving a contemporary context in which the work can be set. Part II expounds the theory of convex hull boundaries and their bending laminations. A new appendix describes recent work. Part III is Thurston's famous paper that presents the notion of earthquakes in hyperbolic geometry and proves the earthquake theorem. The final part introduces the theory of measures on the limit set, drawing attention to related ergodic theory and the exponent of convergence. The book will be welcomed by graduate students and professional mathematicians who want a rigorous introduction to some basic tools essential for the modern theory of hyperbolic manifolds.

Book Synopsis In the Tradition of Thurston by : Ken’ichi Ohshika
Download or read book In the Tradition of Thurston written by Ken’ichi Ohshika and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-12-07 with total page 724 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of 16 surveys on Thurston's work and its later development. The authors are mathematicians who were strongly influenced by Thurston's publications and ideas. The subjects discussed include, among others, knot theory, the topology of 3-manifolds, circle packings, complex projective structures, hyperbolic geometry, Kleinian groups, foliations, mapping class groups, Teichmüller theory, anti-de Sitter geometry, and co-Minkowski geometry. The book is addressed to researchers and students who want to learn about Thurston’s wide-ranging mathematical ideas and their impact. At the same time, it is a tribute to Thurston, one of the greatest geometers of all time, whose work extended over many fields in mathematics and who had a unique way of perceiving forms and patterns, and of communicating and writing mathematics.
Book Synopsis New Ideas In Low Dimensional Topology by : Vassily Olegovich Manturov
Download or read book New Ideas In Low Dimensional Topology written by Vassily Olegovich Manturov and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book consists of a selection of articles devoted to new ideas and developments in low dimensional topology. Low dimensions refer to dimensions three and four for the topology of manifolds and their submanifolds. Thus we have papers related to both manifolds and to knotted submanifolds of dimension one in three (classical knot theory) and two in four (surfaces in four dimensional spaces). Some of the work involves virtual knot theory where the knots are abstractions of classical knots but can be represented by knots embedded in surfaces. This leads both to new interactions with classical topology and to new interactions with essential combinatorics.

Book Synopsis Scissors Congruences, Group Homology & Characteristic Classes by : Johan L Dupont
Download or read book Scissors Congruences, Group Homology & Characteristic Classes written by Johan L Dupont and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001-02-26 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These lecture notes are based on a series of lectures given at the Nankai Institute of Mathematics in the fall of 1998. They provide an overview of the work of the author and the late Chih-Han Sah on various aspects of Hilbert's Third Problem: Are two Euclidean polyhedra with the same volume “scissors-congruent”, i.e. can they be subdivided into finitely many pairwise congruent pieces? The book starts from the classical solution of this problem by M Dehn. But generalization to higher dimensions and other geometries quickly leads to a great variety of mathematical topics, such as homology of groups, algebraic K-theory, characteristic classes for flat bundles, and invariants for hyperbolic manifolds. Some of the material, particularly in the chapters on projective configurations, is published here for the first time.
Book Synopsis Dynamics on Lorentz Manifolds by : Scot Adams
Download or read book Dynamics on Lorentz Manifolds written by Scot Adams and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the general framework of the dynamics of OC largeOCO groups on geometric spaces, the focus is on the types of groups that can act in complicated ways on Lorentz manifolds, and on the structure of the resulting manifolds and actions. This particular area of dynamics is an active one, and not all the results are in their final form. However, at this point, a great deal can be said about the particular Lie groups that come up in this context. It is impressive that, even assuming very weak recurrence of the action, the list of possible groups is quite restricted. For the most complicated of these groups, one can also describe reasonably well the local structure of the actions that arise. This advanced text is also appropriate to a course for mathematics graduate students who have completed their first year of study. Contents: Introduction, History and Outline; Basic Results and Definitions; Basic Differential Topology; Basic Lie Theoretic Results; More Lie Theory; Minkowski Linear Algebra; Basic Dynamical Results; Examples of Actions on Compact Lorentz Manifolds; Examples of Nonproper Actions; Semisimple Groups Admitting a Nonproper Action; Groups with Action on a Compact Lorentz Manifold; The Isometry Group of a Compact Lorentz Manifold; Highly Symmetric Compact Lorentz Manifolds; Locally Free Orbit Nonproper Lorentz Actions; Orbit Nonproper Lorentz Actions; Appendices: The Borel Density Theorem; Tameness of Algebraic Actions in Characteristic Zero. Readership: Researchers and graduate students in mathematics, mathematical physics and theoretical physics."

Book Synopsis Recent Trends in Lorentzian Geometry by : Miguel Sánchez
Download or read book Recent Trends in Lorentzian Geometry written by Miguel Sánchez and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-11-06 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, Lorentzian geometry has been used as a necessary tool to understand general relativity, as well as to explore new genuine geometric behaviors, far from classical Riemannian techniques. Recent progress has attracted a renewed interest in this theory for many researchers: long-standing global open problems have been solved, outstanding Lorentzian spaces and groups have been classified, new applications to mathematical relativity and high energy physics have been found, and further connections with other geometries have been developed. Samples of these fresh trends are presented in this volume, based on contributions from the VI International Meeting on Lorentzian Geometry, held at the University of Granada, Spain, in September, 2011. Topics such as geodesics, maximal, trapped and constant mean curvature submanifolds, classifications of manifolds with relevant symmetries, relations between Lorentzian and Finslerian geometries, and applications to mathematical physics are included. This book will be suitable for a broad audience of differential geometers, mathematical physicists and relativists, and researchers in the field.
