In this paper, we study the asymptotic geometry of Teichmuller space of Riemann surfaces and give bounds on the Weil-Petersson sectional curvature of Teichmuller space, in terms of the length of the shortest geodesic on the surface. This…

Motivated by geometrically capturing generic directions in Teichm\"uller space -- that is, tracking rays for random walks of the mapping class group -- we use work of Chaika--Masur--Wolf and Durham--Zalloum to construct the first examples…

For a non-uniform lattice in SL(2,R), we consider excursions in cusp neighborhoods of a random geodesic on the corresponding finite area hyperbolic surface or orbifold. We prove a strong law for a certain partial sum involving these…

We study the Teichm\"uller metric on the Teichm\"uller space of a surface of finite type, in regions where the injectivity radius of the surface is small. The main result is that in such regions the Teichm\"uller metric is approximated up…

We review and organize some results describing the behavior of a Teichm\"uller geodesic and draw several applications: 1) We show that Teichm\"uller geodesics do not back track. 2) We show that a Teichm\"uller geodesic segment whose…

Thurston's boundary to the universal Teichm\"uller space $T(\mathbb{D})$ is the space $PML_{bdd}(\mathbb{D})$ of projective bounded measured laminations of $\mathbb{D}$. A geodesic ray in $T(\mathbb{D})$ is of Teichm\"uller type if it…

We analyze the asymptotic cones of Teichm\"uller space with the Teichm\"uller metric, $(\mathcal{T}(S),d_T)$. We give a new proof of a theorem of Eskin-Masur-Rafi which bounds the dimension of quasiisometrically embedded flats in…

This paper explores the asymptotic behaviour of the radii of convexity and uniform convexity for normalized Bessel functions with respect to large order. We provide detailed asymptotic expansions for these radii and establish recurrence…

We study random walks on the isometry group of a Gromov hyperbolic space or Teichm\"uller space. We prove that the translation lengths of random isometries satisfy a central limit theorem if and only if the random walk has finite second…

This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of several central objects in Dunkl theory as the dimension of the underlying space grows large. Our starting point is the observation that a recent result from the random matrix theory literature…

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…

The asymptotic behaviour, with respect to the large order, of the radii of starlikeness of two types of normalised Bessel functions is considered. We derive complete asymptotic expansions for the radii of starlikeness and provide recurrence…

We prove that the every quasi-isometry of Teichm\"uller space equipped with the Teichm\"uller metric is a bounded distance from an isometry of Teichm\"uller space. That is, Teichm\"uller space is quasi-isometrically rigid.

We consider a geometric property of the closest-points projection to a geodesic in Teichm\"uller space: the projection is called contracting if arbitrarily large balls away from the geodesic project to sets of bounded diameter. (This…
