Masur showed that a Teichmuller geodesic that is recurrent in the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces is necessarily determined by a quadratic differential with a uniquely ergodic vertical foliation. In this paper, we show that a…

Let $S$ be a closed, oriented surface with a finite (possibly empty) set of points removed. In this paper we relate two important but disparate topics in the study of the moduli space $\M(S)$ of Riemann surfaces: Teichm\"{u}ller geometry…

We construct an example of a Teichmueller geodesic ray whose limit set in Thurston boundary of Teichmueller space is a d-dimensional simplex.

We define a compactification of symmetric spaces of noncompact type, seen as spaces of isometry classes of marked lattices, analogous to the Thurston compactification of the Teichm\"uller space, and we show that it is equivariantly…

We analyse the convex structure of the Finsler infinitesimal balls of the Thurston metric on Teichm{\"u}ller space. We obtain a characterisation of faces, exposed faces and extreme points of the unit spheres. In particular, we prove that…

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…

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…

We introduce a new type of boundary for proper geodesic spaces, called the Morse boundary, that is constructed with rays that identify the "hyperbolic directions" in that space. This boundary is a quasi-isometry invariant and thus produces…

We defined a new set of coordinates with respect to which the Thurston compactification of Teichmuller space is the radial compactification of Euclidean space.

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…

We describe a method for constructing Teichm\"uller geodesics where the vertical measured foliation $\nu$ is minimal but is not uniquely ergodic and where we have a good understanding of the behavior of the Teichm\"uller geodesic. The…
