Using methods of Keen and Series and Wright we prove a local result, stating that on each rational ray there is a sequence of parameters in $\\overline\\Bbb H\\setminus\\Cal M$ accumulating at the boundary point of $\\Cal M$ on the ray. These are the unique parameters on the extended $p/q$ ray for which the special word $W_{p/q}$ is a primitive elliptic M\\\"obius transformation. We also show that the discrete groups with elliptic elements in the complement of $\\overline{\\Cal M}$ are boundary groups of deformation spaces of certain Kleinian groups representing a punctured torus on their invariant component.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "1996-06-12T00:00:00.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "punctured torus", "teichmuller space", "maskits embedding", "kleinian group", "parameters" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
