We consider the space $\mathcal{M}_{2,1}$ --- the open moduli space of complex curves of genus 2 with one marked point. Using language of chord diagrams we describe the cell structure of $\mathcal{M}_{2,1}$ and cell adjacency. This allows…

We consider an inverse problem associated with some 2-dimensional non-compact surfaces with conical singularities, cusps and regular ends. Our motivating example is a Riemann surface $\mathcal M = \Gamma\backslash{\bf H}^2$ associated with…

In this paper, almost product-like Riemannian manifolds are investigated. Basic properties on tangential hypersurfaces of almost product-like Riemannian manifolds are obtained. Some examples of tangential hypersurfaces are presented. Some…

There exists on each Teichm\"uller space $T_g$ (comprising compact Riemann surfaces of genus $g$), a natural sequence of determinant (of cohomology) line bundles, $DET_n$, related to each other via certain ``Mumford isomorphisms''. There is…

We study the manifold of all Riemannian metrics over a closed, finite-dimensional manifold. In particular, we investigate the topology on the manifold of metrics induced by the distance function of the L^2 Riemannian metric - so called…

We consider an area-minimizing integral current $T$ of codimension higher than 1 ins a smooth Riemannian manifold $\Sigma$. We prove that $T$ has a unique tangent cone, which is a superposition of planes, at $\mathcal{H}^{m-2}$-a.e. point…

We study constant Q-curvature metrics conformal to the round metric on the sphere with finitely many point singularities. We show that the moduli space of solutions with finitely many punctures in fixed positions, equipped with the…

We construct the moduli space of r-jets at a point of Riemannian metrics on a smooth manifold. The construction is closely related to the problem of classification of jet metrics via differential invariants. The moduli space is proved to be…

When considered as submanifolds of Euclidean space, the Riemannian geometry of the round sphere and the Clifford torus may be formulated in terms of Poisson algebraic expressions involving the embedding coordinates, and a central object is…

We prove that the moduli space of compact genus three Riemann surfaces contains only finitely many algebraically primitive Teichmueller curves. For the stratum consisting of holomorphic one-forms in genus three with a single zero, our…

The goal of this work is to give new quantitative results about the distribution of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces in the moduli space of closed hyperbolic surfaces. We show that two coverings of genus $g$ of a fixed arithmetic surface…

A closed Teichmuller geodesic in the moduli space M_g of Riemann surfaces of genus g is called L-short if it has length at most L/g. We show that, for any L > 0, there exist e_2 > e_1 > 0, independent of g, so that the L-short geodesics in…

To a closed connected oriented surface $S$ of genus $g$ and a nonempty finite subset $P$ of $S$ is associated a simplicial complex (the arc complex) that plays a basic r\^ ole in understanding the mapping class group of the pair $(S,P)$. It…

Given any compact Riemann surface $C$, there is a canonical meromorphic 2--form $\widehat\eta$ on $C\times C$, with pole of order two on the diagonal $\Delta\, \subset\, C\times C$, constructed in \cite{cfg}. This meromorphic 2--form…

This work is a contribution to the classification of Teichm\"uller curves in the moduli space $\M_2$ of Riemann surfaces of genus 2. While the classification of primitive Teichm\"uller curves in $\M_2$ is complete, the classification of the…

Let $S$ be a closed and oriented surface of genus $g$ at least $2$. In this (mostly expository) article, the object of study is the space $\mathcal{P}(S)$ of marked isomorphism classes of projective structures on $S$. We show that…

Projective structures on topological surfaces support the structure of 2d CFTs with a degree of technical simplification. We propose a complex analytic space $\mathcal{P}_g$ biholomorphic to $T^*_{(1,0)} \mathcal{M}_g$ as a candidate moduli…

Neretin and Segal independently defined a semigroup of annuli with boundary parametrizations, which is viewed as a complexification of the group of diffeomorphisms of the circle. By extending the parametrizations to quasisymmetries, we show…

We study the Picard groups of moduli spaces of smooth complex projective curves that have a group of automorphisms with a prescribed topological action. One of our main tools is the theory of symmetric mapping class groups. In the first…

In this work we study the space S(n) of positively oriented, simple n-gons with labeled vertices up to oriented similarity and M(n) the moduli space of simple n-gons as a quotient of S(n). We give a local description of S(n) and M(n) around…
