We characterize which cobounded quasigeodesics in the Teichmueller space T of a closed surface are at bounded distance from a geodesic. More generally, given a cobounded lipschitz path gamma in T, we show that gamma is a quasigeodesic with…

We study Thurston's Lipschitz and curve metrics, as well as the arc metric on the Teichmueller space of one-hold tori equipped with complete hyperbolic metrics with boundary holonomy of fixed length. We construct natural Lipschitz maps…

In this paper, we study the limit of Teichm\"uller distance between two points along a pair of Teichm\"uller rays. We obtain an explicit formula for the limiting Teichm\"uller distance when the vertical measured foliations of the quadratic…

This preliminary report contains a sketch of the proof of the following result: a slowly divergent Teichmuller geodesic satisfying a certain logarithmic law is determined by a uniquely ergodic measured foliation.

We study the convergence of earthquake paths and horocycle paths in the Gardiner-Masur compactification of Teichm\"uller space. We show that an earthquake path directed by a uniquely ergodic or simple closed measured geodesic lamination…

Masur's divergence states that the horizontal foliation of translation surfaces is uniquely ergodic if the geodesic flow is recurrent on the moduli space. This established a relationship between geometrical properties of foliations and the…

Let $X$ be an infinite geodesically complete hyperbolic surface which can be decomposed into geodesic pairs of pants. We introduce Thurston's boundary to the Teichm\"uller space $T(X)$ of the surface $X$ using the length spectrum analogous…

We show that, in the Teichm\"uller metric, "thin-framed triangles are thin"---that is, under suitable hypotheses, the variation of geodesics obeys a hyperbolic-like inequality. This theorem has applications to the study of random walks on…

We study limit sets of Teichm\"uller disks in the Thurston boundary of Teichm\"uller space of a closed surface S of genus at least 2. It is well known that almost every Teichm\"uller geodesic ray converges to a point on the boundary. We…

For two measured laminations $\nu^+$ and $\nu^-$ that fill up a hyperbolizable surface $S$ and for $t \in (-\infty, \infty)$, let $L_t$ be the unique hyperbolic surface that minimizes the length function $e^t l(\nu^+) + e^{-t} l(\nu^-)$ on…

We answer a question of Durham, Hagen, and Sisto, proving that a Teichm\"uller geodesic ray does not necessarily converge to a unique point in the hierarchically hyperbolic space boundary of Teichm\"uller space. In fact, we prove that the…
