The principal investigator will analyze how topology determines geometry in several settings. He will study deformation theory for open 3-manifolds, geometrization of automorphisms of free groups, and parallels between renormalization theory and hyperbolic 3-manifolds which asymptotically fiber over a circle. A central theme in modern dynamical systems is the restriction topology puts on allowable dynamics and geometry. For example, on the surface of a sphere, every vector field must have a singularity. On the earth, this means that the wind cannot blow everywhere at once; there must be at least one spot where the air does not move. In this vein, the principal investigator will develop relationships between complex dynamics and the geometry of three-dimensional hypersurfaces.

首席研究员将分析拓扑如何在几种情况下决定几何形状。他将研究开放3-流形的变形理论，自由群自同构的几何化，重整化理论与在圆上渐近纤维的双曲3-流形的相似之处。现代动力系统的一个中心主题是拓扑结构对允许动力学和几何的限制。例如，在球面上，每个向量场都必须有一个奇点。在地球上，这意味着风不能同时吹遍所有地方；必须至少有一个地方空气不流动。在这方面，首席研究员将发展复杂动力学和三维超曲面几何之间的关系。
