Abstract

We plan to study limits of dynamical systems from different, but closely related, points of view: holomorphic dybamics in one variable, Kleinian and Fuchsian groups and dynamics of surface homeomorphisms. These subjects are closely related to 3-dimensional hyperbolic geometry and to explore this relationship is also an important part of the project. (AU)
