The type problem is the problem of deciding, for a simply connected Riemann surface, whether it is conformally equivalent to the complex plane or to the unit dic in the complex plane. We report on Teichm{\"u}ller's results on the type…
The central extension of the Thompson group $T$ that arises in the quantized Teichm\"uller theory is 12 times the Euler class. This extension is obtained by taking a (partial) abelianization of the so-called braided Ptolemy-Thompson group…
Given a hypersurface in a complex projective space, we prove that the multidegrees of its toric polar map agree, up to sign, with the coefficients of the Chern-Schwartz-MacPherson class of a distinguished open set, namely the complement 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 describe the spaces of the positive and tropical points of the moduli space $\mathcal{P}_{PGL_2,\Sigma}$ introduced by Goncharov--Shen [GS19] as certain Teichm\"uller and lamination spaces, respectively, with additional data of pinnings.…
We show that any element of the universal Teichm\"uller space is realized by a unique minimal Lagrangian diffeomorphism from the hyperbolic plane to itself. The proof uses maximal surfaces in the 3-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. We show…
Two commonly studied compactifications of Teichm\"uller spaces of finite type surfaces with respect to the Teichm\"uller metric are the horofunction and visual compactifications. We show that these two compactifications are related, by…
We establish a link between the behavior of length functions on Teichm\"uller space and the geometry of certain anti de Sitter 3-manifolds. As an application, we give new purely anti de Sitter proofs of results of Teichm\"uller theory such…
We develop Teichmuller theoretical methods to construct new minimal surfaces in $\BE^3$ by adding handles and planar ends to existing minimal surfaces in $\BE^3$. We exhibit this method on an interesting class of minimal surfaces which are…
We investigate shrinking maps from a cusped hyperbolic surface into the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces. For such a map and its lift to the Teichm\"uller space, we consider whether they are quasi-isometric embeddings with respect to…
We develop the theory of veering triangulations on oriented surfaces adapted to moduli spaces of half-translation surfaces. We use veering triangulations to give a coding of the Teichm\"uller flow on connected components of strata of…
We introduce a natural stratification of the space of projective classes of measured laminations on a complete hyperbolic surface of finite area. We prove a rigidity result, namely, the group of self-homeomorphisms of the space of…
We show that Thurston's skinning maps of Teichmuller space have finite fibers. The proof centers around a study of two subvarieties of the SL_2(C) character variety of a surface, one associated to complex projective structures and the other…
We prove a semisimplicity result for the boundary, in the corresponding Deligne-Mumford compactification, of a totally geodesic subvariety of a moduli space of Riemann surfaces. At the level of Teichm\"uller space, this semisimplicity…
Geometric models and Teichm\"uller structures have been introduced for the space of smooth expanding circle endomorphisms and for the space of uniformly symmetric circle endomorphisms. The latter one is the completion of the previous one…
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…
In his 1944 paper Ver\"anderliche Riemannsche Fl\"achen , Teichm\"uller defined a structure of complex manifold on the set of isomorphism classes of marked closed Riemann surfaces of genus g. The complex manifold he obtained is the space…
We present an outline of the theory of universal Teichmuller space, viewed as part of the theory of QS, the space of quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of a circle. Although elements of QS act in one dimension, most results depend on a…
A function from configuration space to moduli space of surface may induce a homomorphism between their fundamental groups which are braid groups and mapping class groups of surface, respectively. This map $\phi: B_k \rightarrow…
In this article, we study the $(m+2)$-angulations on a Riemann surface, characterized with its boundary components, punctures, and gender. We count the number of arcs in such a surface, and associate a graded quiver with superpotential…
