Recent progress in the theory of Kleinian groups

 

Abstract

 

Thurston listed unsolved problems on Kleinian groups in his survey paper which was published in 1982. In these two years, most of the listed problems have been solved. In this talk, I shall discuss these problems and recent work of specialists in this field, including myself, which lead to the solutions.
