The barycenter method on singular spaces
Abstract
Bonahon conjectured that compact convex cores with totally geodesic boundary uniquely minimize volume over all hyperbolic 3-manifolds in the same homotopy class. This paper proves Bonahon's conjecture. The proofs extend the techniques of Besson-Courtois-Gallot.
