gptkbp:property |
Schottky groups act on the Riemann sphere.
Schottky groups are examples of Kleinian groups. Schottky groups are free groups. Schottky groups are not cocompact Schottky groups are not elementary groups limit set of a Schottky group is a Cantor set Schottky groups are discrete subgroups of Möbius transformations. |
