Bounds on the average bending of the convex hull boundary of a Kleinian group (Q1411313)

In this paper, the hyperbolic manifolds with incompressible convex core boundary are considered. The main results obtained in this paper are as follows. (1) It is proved that the total bending along a geodesic arc on the boundary of the convex core is bounded above by a function of its length. Integrating this function over the unit tangent bundle of the boundary of the convex core yields a new universal upper bound on the total bending of the convex core boundary; (2) A new universal upper bound on the Lipschitz constant for the map from the convex core boundary to the hyperbolic structure at infinity is obtained. These results improve on earlier bounds of the author and Canary.
