Dynamics for discrete subgroups of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb C)$ (1909.02922v4)

Abstract: Margulis wrote in the preface of his book Discrete subgroups of semisimple Lie groups that "A number of important topics have been omitted. The most significant of these is the theory of Kleinian groups and Thurston's theory of 3-dimensional manifolds: these two theories can be united under the common title of Theory of discrete subgroups of $\operatorname{SL}_2(\mathbb C)$." In this article, we will discuss a few recent advances regarding this missing topic from his book, which were influenced by his earlier works.
