Local-global principles in circle packings

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We generalize work of Bourgain-Kontorovich and Zhang, proving an almost local-to-global property for the curvatures of certain circle packings, to a large class of Kleinian groups. Specifically, we associate in a natural way an infinite family of integral packings of circles to any Kleinian group mathcalAleqextrmPSL2(K) satisfying certain conditions, where K is an imaginary quadratic field, and show that the curvatures of the circles in any such packing satisfy an almost local-to-global principle. A key ingredient in the proof of this is that mathcalA possesses a spectral gap property, which we prove for any infinite-covolume, geometrically finite, Zariski dense Kleinian group in extrmPSL2(mathcalOK) containing a Zariski dense subgroup of extrmPSL2(mathbbZ).
