We show that any grafting ray in Teichm\"{u}ller space is (strongly) asymptotic to some Teichm\"{u}ller geodesic ray. As an intermediate step we introduce surfaces that arise as limits of these degenerating Riemann surfaces. Given a…
Given a measured geodesic lamination on a hyperbolic surface, grafting the surface along multiples of the lamination defines a path in Teichmuller space, called the grafting ray. We show that every grafting ray, after reparametrization, is…
We show that any grafting ray in Teichm\"{u}ller space determined by an arational lamination or a multi-curve is (strongly) asymptotic to a Teichm\"{u}ller geodesic ray. As a consequence the projection of a generic grafting ray to moduli…
Let $X$ be a closed hyperbolic surface and $\lambda, \eta$ be weighted geodesic multicurves which are short on X. We show that the iterated grafting along $\lambda$ and $\eta$ is close in the Teichmueller metric to grafting along a single…
We study the asymptotic behavior of Moncrief lines on $2+1$ maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact space-time $M$ of non-negative constant curvature. We show that when the unique geodesic lamination associated with $M$ is either…
Thurston's boundary to the universal Teichm\"uller space $T(\mathbb{H})$ is the set of asymptotic rays to the embedding of $T(\mathbb{H})$ in the space of geodesic currents; the boundary is identified with the projective bounded measured…
In this paper, we study the limit of Teichm\"uller distance between two points along a pair of Teichm\"uller rays. We obtain an explicit formula for the limiting Teichm\"uller distance when the vertical measured foliations of the quadratic…
Given a sequence of curves on a surface, we provide conditions which ensure that (1) the sequence is an infinite quasi-geodesic in the curve complex, (2) the limit in the Gromov boundary is represented by a nonuniquely ergodic ending…
The Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)$ of a surface $\Sigma$ is equipped with Thurston's asymmetric metric. Stretch lines are oriented geodesics for this metric on $\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)$. We give the asymptotic behavior of the lengths…
We show that grafting any fixed hyperbolic surface defines a homeomorphism from the space of measured laminations to Teichmuller space, complementing a result of Scannell-Wolf on grafting by a fixed lamination. This result is used to study…
In this paper, we consider the asymptotic behavior of two Teichm\"uller geodesic rays determined by Jenkins-Strebel differentials, and we obtain a generalization of a theorem in \cite{Amano14}. We also consider the infimum of the asymptotic…
We study the asymptotic geometry of Teichmueller geodesic rays. We show that when the transverse measures to the vertical foliations of the quadratic differentials determining two different rays are topologically equivalent, but are not…
Grafting a measured lamination on a hyperbolic surface defines a self-map of Teichmuller space, which is a homeomorphism by a result of Scannell and Wolf. In this paper we study the large-scale behavior of pruning, which is the inverse of…
Grafting is a method of obtaining new projective structures from a hyperbolic structure, basically by gluing a flat cylinder into a surface along a closed geodesic in the hyperbolic structure, or by limits of that procedure. This induces a…
We determine the asymptotic behaviour of extremal length along arbitrary Teichm\"uller rays. This allows us to calculate the endpoint in the Gardiner-Masur boundary of any Teichm\"uller ray. We give a proof that this compactification is the…
While there may be many Thurston metric geodesics between a pair of points in Teichm\"uller space, we find that by imposing an additional energy minimization constraint on the geodesics, thought of as limits of harmonic map rays, we select…
In this paper, we investigate the structure of the Gardiner-Masur boundary of Teichmuller space. Indeed, we will give a geometric description of boundary comparing to the Duchin-Leininger-Rafi compactification of the space of singular flat…
Thurston boundary of the universal Teichm\"uller space $T(\mathbb{D})$ is the space $PML_{bdd}(\mathbb{D})$ of projective bounded measured laminations of $\mathbb{D}$. A geodesic ray in $T(\mathbb{D})$ is of generalized Teichm\"uller type…
Grafting is a surgery on Riemann surfaces introduced by Thurston which connects hyperbolic geometry and the theory of projective structures on surfaces. We will discuss the space of projective structures in terms of the Thurston's geometric…
We study the asymptotic behavior of extremal length along Teichm\"uller rays. Specifically, we determine the limit of extremal length along a Teichm\"uller ray and obtain an explicit expression for this limit, which complements a related…
