Associated to a holomorphic quadratic differential is a unit ball of the measured lamination space. The Thurston volume of the unit ball defines a function on the moduli space. We show that the volume function is not proper and characterize…
We present a method to compute the volume of a solid of revolution as a double integral in a very simple way. Then, we see that the classical methods (disks and shells) are recovered if this double integral is computed by each of the two…

We construct the quasi-classical approximation of the form factors in finite volume using the separation of variables. The latter is closely related to the Baxter equation.
A formula for the interior epsilon-neighborhood of the classical von Koch snowflake curve is computed in detail. This function of epsilon is shown to match quite closely with earlier predictions of what it should be, but is also much more…
