Rigidity in Kleinian Groups

The phenomenon of rigidity--topological structure determines geometry--plays a central role in Kleinian groups and hyperbolic geometry, beginning with Mostow and Prasad's theorems for finite volume manifolds. I will give an overview of this theory, including Sullivan's rigidity theorem for quasiconformal deformations, and more recent progress on some of the remaining open questions.
