Abstract

We show that Cannon–Thurston maps exist for degenerate free groups without parabolics, that is, for handlebody groups. Combining these techniques with earlier work proving the existence of Cannon–Thurston maps for surface groups, we show that Cannon–Thurston maps exist for arbitrary finitely generated Kleinian groups without parabolics, proving conjectures of Thurston and McMullen. We also show that point pre-images under Cannon–Thurston maps for degenerate free groups without parabolics correspond to endpoints of leaves of an ending lamination in the Masur domain, whenever a point has more than one pre-image. This proves a conjecture of Otal. We also prove a similar result for point pre-images under Cannon–Thurston maps for arbitrary finitely generated Kleinian groups without parabolics.
