Abstract: Abstract Thurston established a correspondence between ℂ P 1 $$\mathbb {C}\mathrm {P}^1$$ -structures (complex projective structures) and equivariant pleated surfaces in the hyperbolic-three space ℍ 3 $$\mathbb {H}^3$$ , in order to give a parameterization of the deformation space of ℂ P 1 $$\mathbb {C}\mathrm {P}^1$$ -structures. In this note, we summarize Thurston’s parametrization of ℂ P 1 $$\mathbb {C}\mathrm {P}^1$$ -structures, based on [15] and [17], giving an outline and the key points of its construction. In addition we give independent proofs for the following well-known theorems on ℂ P 1 $$\mathbb {C}\mathrm {P}^1$$ -structures by means of pleated surfaces given by the parameterization. (1) Goldman’s Theorem on ℂ P 1 $$\mathbb {C}\mathrm {P}^1$$ -structures with quasi-Fuchsian holonomy. (2) The path lifting property of developing maps in the domain of discontinuities in ℂ P 1 $$\mathbb {C}\mathrm {P}^1$$ .
