Let tex2html_wrap_inline1493 denote the exponent of convergence of the Poincare series

where z,w are fixed points of tex2html_wrap_inline1411 and (a,b) is the hyperbolic distance from a to b. Let tex2html_wrap_inline1505 denote the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set tex2html_wrap_inline1507 . By work of Patterson [11], [12] and Sullivan [17], [18],

and

as long as tex2html_wrap_inline1509 . Thus our universal lower bound for tex2html_wrap_inline1401 implies a universal upper bound tex2html_wrap_inline1423 for tex2html_wrap_inline1493 and tex2html_wrap_inline1505 .
