The aim of this paper is to study the structure of the higher-dimensional Teichm\"uller and Riemann moduli spaces, viewed as stacks over the category of complex manifolds. We first show that the space of complex operators on a smooth…
The setting is a square-tiled surface X. We study the quantity KVol, defined as the supremum over all pairs of closed curves, of their algebraic intersection divided by the product of their length, times the volume of X (so as to make it…
In recent years, Teichm\"uller theory, which is the study of moduli spaces of marked Riemann surfaces, has come to be considered more and more from the point of view of actions of surface groups inside certain semi-simple Lie groups. In…
We construct an Ahlfors-Bers complex analytic model for the Teichm\"uller space of the universal hyperbolic lamination (also known as Sullivan's Teichm\"uller space) and the renormalized Weil-Petersson metric on it as an extension of the…
A Teichm\"uller space $Teich$ is a quotient of the space of all complex structures on a given manifold $M$ by the connected components of the group of diffeomorphisms. The mapping class group $\Gamma$ of $M$ is the group of connected…
For a complete, smooth toric variety Y, we describe the graded vector space T_Y^1. Furthermore, we show that smooth toric surfaces are unobstructed and that a smooth toric surface is rigid if and only if it is Fano. For a given toric…
This is a commentary on Teichm\"ullers' paper "Ver\"anderliche Riemannsche Fl\"achen" (Variable Riemann Surfaces), published in 1944. This paper is the last one that Teichm\"uller wrote on the problem of moduli. At most places the paper…
We show the Teichm\"uller space of a non-orientable surface with marked points (considered as a Klein surface) can be identified with a subspace of the Teichm\"uller space of its orientable double cover. Also, it is well known that the…
We study parabolic G-Higgs bundles over a compact Riemann surface with fixed punctures, when G is a real reductive Lie group, and establish a correspondence between these objects and representations of the fundamental group of the punctured…
Abelian differentials on Riemann surfaces can be seen as translation surfaces, which are flat surfaces with cone-type singularities. Closed geodesics for the associated flat metrics form cylinders whose number under a given maximal length…
Let X_0 be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus g with D_0\subset X_0 an ordered subset of cardinality n, and let E_G be a holomorphic principal G-bundle on X_0, where G is a complex reductive affine algebraic group, that admits a…
A cyclic cover of the complex projective line branched at four appropriate points has a natural structure of a square-tiled surface. We describe the combinatorics of such a square-tiled surface, the geometry of the corresponding…
In this paper we parametrize the Teichm\"uller spaces of constructible Koebe groups, that is Kleinian group that arise as covering of $2-$orbifolds determined by certain normal subgroups of their fundamental groups. We also study the…
We associate to any holomorphic vertex algebra a collection of Teichm\"{u}ller modular forms, one in each genus. In genus one we obtain the character of the vertex algebra, and we thus reprove Zhu's modularity result. In higher genus, we…
A translation structure on a surface is an atlas of charts to the plane so that the transition functions are translations. We allow our surfaces to be non-compact and infinite genus. We endow the space of all pointed surfaces equipped with…
The (super) Schottky uniformization of compact (super) Riemann surfaces is briefly reviewed. Deformations of super Riemann surface by gravitinos and Beltrami parameters are recast in terms of super Schottky group cohomology. It is checked…
We develop a theory of convex cocompact subgroups of the mapping class group MCG of a closed, oriented surface S of genus at least 2, in terms of the action on Teichmuller space. Given a subgroup G of MCG defining an extension L_G: 1-->…
We reduce a question of Eskin-Kontsevich-Zorich and Forni-Matheus-Zorich, which asks for a classification of all $\text{SL}_2(\mathbb{R})$-invariant ergodic probability measures with completely degenerate Kontsevich-Zorich spectrum, to a…
Given a closed surface endowed with a volume form, we equip the space of compatible Riemannian structures with the structure of an infinite-dimensional symplectic manifold. We show that the natural action of the group of volume-preserving…
We construct new coordinates for the Teichm\"uller space Teich of a punctured torus into $\bold{R} \times\bold{R}^+$. The coordinates depend on the representation of Teich as a space of marked Kleinian groups $G_\mu$ that depend…
