Groups and group actions are probably the most central objects in mathematics. Comprising volumes 31, 32, 40 and 41 of the ALM series, the Handbook of Group Actions presents survey articles on the topic of group actions and how they appear in several mathematical contexts. The general subject matter is organized under the following sections: geometry, mapping class groups, knot groups, topology, representation theory, deformation theory, and discrete groups. The various articles deal with both classical material and modern developments. They are written by specialists in their...

The purpose of this volume and of the other volumes in the same series is to provide a collection of surveys that allows the reader to learn the important aspects of William Thurston's heritage. Thurston's ideas have altered the course of twentieth century mathematics, and they continue to have a significant influence on succeeding generations of mathematicians. The topics covered in the present volume include com-plex hyperbolic Kleinian groups, Moebius structures, hyperbolic ends, cone 3-manifolds, Thurston's norm, surgeries in representation varieties, triangulations, spaces of polygo-nal...
