Hyperbolic geometry | Kleinian groups | 3-manifolds
The geometry and topology of three-manifolds is a set of widely circulated but unpublished notes by William Thurston from 1978 to 1980 describing his work on 3-manifolds. The notes introduced several new ideas into geometric topology, including orbifolds, pleated manifolds, and train tracks. (Wikipedia).
Jessica Purcell: Structure of hyperbolic manifolds - Lecture 3
Abstract: In these lectures, we will review what it means for a 3-manifold to have a hyperbolic structure, and give tools to show that a manifold is hyperbolic. We will also discuss how to decompose examples of 3-manifolds, such as knot complements, into simpler pieces. We give conditions

AlgTop20: The geometry of surfaces
This lecture relates the two dimensional surfaces we have just classified with the three classical geometries- Euclidean, spherical and hyperbolic. Our approach to these geometries is non-standard (the usual formulations are in fact deeply flawed) and we concentrate on isometries, avoiding

I define topological manifolds. Motivated by the prospect of calculus on topological manifolds, I introduce smooth manifolds. At the end I point out how one needs to change the definitions, to obtain C^1 or even complex manifolds. To learn more about manifolds, see Lee's "Introduction to
