Bers Slices in Families of Univalent Maps

Abstract: We construct embeddings of Bers slices of ideal polygon reflection groups into the classical family of univalent functions $\Sigma$. This embedding is such that the conformal mating of the reflection group with the anti-holomorphic polynomial $z\mapsto\overline{z}^d$ is the Schwarz reflection map arising from the corresponding map in $\Sigma$. We characterize the image of this embedding in $\Sigma$ as a family of univalent rational maps. Moreover, we show that the limit set of every Kleinian reflection group in the closure of the Bers slice is naturally homeomorphic to the Julia set of an anti-holomorphic polynomial.
