Bers's conjecture that every b-group is a boundary group

About 17 years old · traced to

Let GG be a Fuchsian group of the first kind, and let GϕG^\phi be a b-group arising from a point ϕ\phi in the relevant deformation space. A group GϕG^\phi is called a boundary group when ϕ\phi belongs to the Bers boundary ∂T(G)\partial T(G) for some Fuchsian group GG of the first kind. Bers's conjecture. Every b-group is a boundary group. This conjecture concerns the geometric meaning of boundary points in the Bers compactification of Teichmüller space. It is still open in full generality.
