Research Abstract |
We have studied the interaction between geometric structures and invariants of 3-manifolds in order to get deeper understanding for their topology, and obtained several new results on global behavior of geometric invariants. In particular, the reporter attained a few progress on comparison of dynamical invariants of mapping classes of a surface and simplicial volumes of their mapping tori. Also, we have organized an international conference to review our activities in the last year, and pointed out many issues that suggest further direction.
