Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The hyperbolic geometry is important in studying the geometry of two and three dimensional manifolds. To understand this geometry, we studied the character variety of the fundamental group of a surface. In particular, we defined a new kind of volume for closed three dimensional manifolds using hyperbolic geometry, and studied the basic structure of this invariant. Moreover, using CAT(0) cube complexes, we found conditions for infinite discrete groups, such as fundamental groups of manifolds, to became hyperbolic in the sense of Gromov.
