We introduce Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates on Teicm\"uller spaces of surfaces of infinite type. The definition is relative to a given pair of pants decomposition of the surface. We start by establishing conditions under which any pair of…
Given a surface of infinite topological type, there are several Teichm\"uller spaces associated with it, depending on the basepoint and on the point of view that one uses to compare different complex structures. This paper is about the…
Let $X$ be an infinite geodesically complete hyperbolic surface which can be decomposed into geodesic pairs of pants. We introduce Thurston's boundary to the Teichm\"uller space $T(X)$ of the surface $X$ using the length spectrum analogous…
In this paper, the Teichm{\"u}ller spaces of surfaces appear from two points of views: the conformal category and the hyperbolic category. In contrast to the case of surfaces of topologically finite type, the Teichm{\"u}ller spaces…
There are several Teichm\"uller spaces associated to a surface of infinite topological type, after the choice of a particular basepoint (a complex or a hyperbolic structure on the surface). These spaces include the quasiconformal…
We prove that there are Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates for the Teichmueller space of a finite area hyperbolic surface with respect to which the length functions are convex.
We introduce a natural cell decomposition of a closed oriented surface associated with a pants decomposition, and an explicit groupoid cocycle on the cell decomposition which represents each point of the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}_g$.…
For a compact surface $X_0$, Thurston introduced a compactification of its Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal T(X_0)$ by completing it with a boundary $\mathcal{PML}(X_0)$ consisting of projective measured geodesic laminations. We introduce a…
We prove that the Teichm\"uller space of the Hirsch foliation (a minimal foliation of a closed 3-manifold by non-compact hyperbolic surfaces) is homeomorphic to the space of closed curves in the plane. This allows us to show that that the…
We show that the length spectrum metric on Teichm\"uller spaces of surfaces of infinite topological type is complete. We also give related results and examples that compare the length spectrum Teichm\"uller space with quasiconformal and the…
We interpolate a new family of Teichm\"uller spaces $T_{\sharp}^X$ between the universal Teichm\"uller space $T$ and its little subspace $T_0$, which we call the Teichm\"uller space of piecewise symmetric homeomorphisms. This is defined by…
In the Teichm\"uller space of a hyperbolic surface of finite type, we construct geodesic lines for Thurston's asymmetric metric having the property that when they are traversed in the reverse direction, they are also geodesic lines (up to…
Considering the Teichm\"uller space of a surface equipped with Thurston's Lipschitz metric, we study geodesic segments whose endpoints have bounded combinatorics. We show that these geodesics are cobounded, and that the closest-point…
Kahn and Markovic \cite{KahnMark} proved that the fundamental group of each closed hyperbolic three manifold contains a closed surface subgroup. One of the main ingredients in their proof is a theorem which states that an assignment of…
Given a compact orientable surface of negative Euler characteristic, there exists a natural pairing between the Teichmueuller space of the surface and the set of homotopy classes of simple loops and arcs. The length pairing sends a…
We provide analogues for non-orientable surfaces with or without boundary or punctures of several basic theorems in the setting of the Thurston theory of surfaces which were developed so far only in the case of orientable surfaces. Namely,…
Let $S$ be a closed orientable surface with genus $g\geq 2$. For a sequence $\s_i$ in the Teichm\"uller space of $S$, which converges to a projective measured lamination $[\lam]$ in the Thurston boundary, we obtain a relation between $\lam$…
Let $X_0$ be a complete borderless infinite area hyperbolic surface. We introduce Thurston's boundary to the Teichm\"uller space $T(X_0)$ of the surface $X_0$ using Liouville (geodesic) currents. Thurston's boundary to $T(X_0)$ is…
