Abstract: A Kleinian Group is a discrete group of isometries of hyperbolic 3 space. Every hyperbolic 3-manifold can be realized as the quotient of hyperbolic 3-space with a Kleinian Group. Motivated by the foundational work of Ahlfors and Bers,
I will introduce the algebra, geometry and topology of Kleinian Groups with the tools needed to study them.
