Renormalization and 3-Manifolds Which Fiber over the Circle (AM-142), Volume 142 /
Many parallels between complex dynamics and hyperbolic geometry have emerged in the past decade. Building on work of Sullivan and Thurston, this book gives a unified treatment of the construction of fixed-points for renormalization and the construction of hyperbolic 3- manifolds fibering over the ci...
