Title: Introduction to Hyperbolic Geometry
Speaker: Beibei Liu
Abstract: The hyperbolic spaces are nice models for the study of groups, geometry, and dynamics. In this talk, I will introduce basic concepts in hyperbolic geometry and the interplay between its geometry and the dynamic properties of the group actions. We will concentrate on hyperbolic manifolds in dimension 2 and 3.
