For every half-translation surface with marked points $(M,\Sigma)$, we construct an associated tessellation $\Pi(M,\Sigma)$ of the Poincar\'e upper half plane whose tiles have finitely many sides and area at most $\pi$. The tessellation…

Square-tiled surfaces are a class of translation surfaces that are of particular interest in geometry and dynamics because, as covers of the square torus, they share some of its simplicity and structure. In this paper, we study counting…

We show that every surface in H^hyp(4) is either a Veech surface or a generic surface, i.e. its GL^+(2,R)-orbit is either a closed or a dense subset of H^hyp(4) . The proof develops new techniques applicable in general to the problem of…

There is a well-known correspondence between the symplectic variety of representations of the fundamental group of a punctured Riemann surface into a compact Lie group G, with fixed conjugacy classes at the punctures, and a complex variety…

Given a symmetry $\tau$ of a closed Riemann surface $S$, there exists an extended Kleinian group $K$, whose orientation-preserving half is a Schottky group $\Gamma$ uniformizing $S$, such that $K/\Gamma$ induces $\langle \tau \rangle$; the…

We introduce the concept of a Fock bundle, a smooth principal bundle over a surface equipped with a special kind of adjoint-valued 1-form, as a new tool for studying character varieties of surface groups. Although similar to Higgs bundles,…

We consider circle patterns on closed tori equipped with complex projective structures. There is an embedding of the space of circle patterns to the Teichm\"{u}ller space of a punctured surface. Via the embedding, the Weil-Petersson…

This paper is a survey on the role of Higgs bundle theory in the study of higher Teichm\"uller spaces. Recall that the Teichm\"uller space of a compact surface can be identified with a certain connected component of the moduli space of…

Based on earlier work of the latter two named authors on the higher super-Teichmueller space with $\mathcal{N}=1$, a component of the flat $OSp(1|2)$ connections on a punctured surface, here we extend to the case $\mathcal{N}=2$ of flat…

The Universal Teichm\"uller Space, $T(1)$, is a universal parameter space for all Riemann surfaces. In earlier work of the first author it was shown that one can canonically associate infinite- dimensional period matrices to the coadjoint…

In this succinct note, it is showed that a partition function of equivalent classes of hyperbolic surfaces can be connected to an Ising model located on the boundary of the Poincare disc, as hinted by Poincare's Uniformization theorem and…

The Bers embebbing realizes the Teichm\"uller space of a Fuchsian group $G$ as a open, bounded and contractible subset of the complex Banach space of bounded quadratic differentials for $G$. It utilizes the schlicht model of Teichm\"uller…

We show the map $\sigma : T_g \to C_g$ sending a compact hyperbolic surface $X$ to a random simple closed geodesic on $X$ determines a proper embedding of Teichm\"uller space into the space of geodesic currents. The proof depends on a…

We define a moduli space of translation structures on the open topological disk with a basepoint and endow it with a locally-compact metrizable topology. We call this the immersive topology, because it is defined using the concept of…
