We generalize work by Bourgain and Kontorovich [On the local-global conjecture for integral Apollonian gaskets, Invent. Math. 196 (2014), 589–650] and Zhang [On the local-global principle for integral Apollonian 3-circle packings, J. Reine Angew. Math. 737, (2018), 71–110], proving an almost local-to-global property for the curvatures of certain circle packings, to a large class of Kleinian groups. Specifically, we associate in a natural way an infinite family of integral packings of circles to any Kleinian group ${\mathcal{A}}\leqslant \text{PSL}_{2}(K)$ satisfying certain conditions, where $K$ is an imaginary quadratic field, and show that the curvatures of the circles in any such packing satisfy an almost local-to-global principle. A key ingredient in the proof is that ${\mathcal{A}}$ possesses a spectral gap property, which we prove for any infinite-covolume, geometrically finite, Zariski dense Kleinian group in $\operatorname{PSL}_{2}({\mathcal{O}}_{K})$ containing a Zariski dense subgroup of $\operatorname{PSL}_{2}(\mathbb{Z})$.

Let {Gr,i} be a sequence of r-generator Kleinian groups acting on . In this paper, we prove that if {Gr,i} satisfies the F-condition, then its algebraic limit group Gr is also a Kleinian group. The existence of a homomorphism from Gr to Gr,i is also proved. These are generalisations of all known corresponding results.

It is shown that for a finite group G to be isomorphic to a subgroup of SO(3) (or, equivalently, of PSL(2, C)) it is necessary and sufficient that G satisfies the property that the normalizer of every cyclic subgroup is either cyclic or dihedral.
