Abstract

For any closed surface S of genus g 2, we show that the deformation space AH.S I/ of marked hyperbolic 3‐manifolds homotopy equivalent to S is not locally connected. This proves a conjecture of Bromberg who recently proved that the space of Kleinian punctured torus groups is not locally connected. Playing an essential role in our proof is a new version of the filling theorem that is based on the theory of cone-manifold deformations developed by Hodgson, Kerckhoff and Bromberg.
