This heavily class-tested book is an exposition of the theoretical foundations of hyperbolic manifolds. It is a both a textbook and a reference. A basic knowledge of algebra and topology at the first year graduate level of an American university is assumed. The first part is concerned with hyperbolic geometry and discrete groups. The second part is devoted to the theory of hyperbolic manifolds. The third part integrates the first two parts in a development of the theory of hyperbolic orbifolds. Each chapter contains exercises and a section of historical remarks. A solutions manual is available separately.
A solutions manual is available separately. This book is an exposition of the theoretical foundations of hyperbolic manifolds. It is intended to be used both as a textbook and as a reference. The book is divided into three parts.
The book will be welcomed by graduate students and professional mathematicians who want a rigorous introduction to some basic tools essential for the modern theory of hyperbolic manifolds.

Focussing on the geometry of hyperbolic manifolds, the aim here is to provide an exposition of some fundamental results, while being as self-contained, complete, detailed and unified as possible.
Given initial conditions f ( 0 ) = f ' ( 0 ) = li , we find li li 1+ + 1 2 f ( r ) ( coal ( vi ) + 2 sinh ( vi ) = = k1 ( cosh ( rVt ) + 1 t - € -6/2 0 r curved metric on. = liv1 - 7 sinh ( VE ( T – To ) , Vt where ro = arctanh ( VT ) ...
Hence, if A (F) is finite and contains at least three distinct points, then To has a fixed point in H", which in turn ... It suffices to show that each point p fixed by a loxodromic element g e T is an accumulation point of A(T).

This book continues to serve as the best introduction to hyperbolic complex analysis and geometry and is easily accessible to students since very little is assumed. The new edition adds comments on the most recent developments in the field.
