Outline of Final Research Achievements

We have obtained the following results concerning character varieties of free groups. We have accomplished the proof of the general convergence theorem for Schottky spaces, which plays a key role for understanding the topology of Schottky spaces. We have also determined the intersection of the boundaries of Schottky spaces and the space of primitive stable representations, and showed that every point there is an accumulation point of representations corresponding to closed 3-manifolds. For general Kleinian groups, we have succeeded in giving a new way of understanding Sullivan's rigidity theorem in terms of Cannon-Thurston maps. Furthermore, we have studied the relationship between non-injective points of Cannon-Thurston maps and conical limit points for general Gromov hyperbolic groups acting as convergence groups. We have published all of these results in academic journals.
