We show the existence of 1-parameter families of non-periodic, complete, embedded minimal surfaces in euclidean space with infinitely many parallel planar ends. In particular we are able to produce finite genus examples and quasi-periodic…
Let $X$ be an infinite Riemann surface equipped with its conformal hyperbolic metric such that the action of the covering group $\pi_1(X)$ on $\tilde{X}$ is of the first kind-i.e., the surface $X$ is equal to its convex core. We first prove…
We investigate complex surfaces that fiber over Teichm\"uller curves where the generic fiber is a Veech surface. When the fiber has genus one, these surfaces are elliptic fibrations; for higher genus fibers, they are typically minimal…
We prove a semisimplicity result for the boundary, in the corresponding Deligne-Mumford compactification, of a totally geodesic subvariety of a moduli space of Riemann surfaces. At the level of Teichm\"uller space, this semisimplicity…
We construct a complete, embedded minimal surface in euclidean 3-space which has unbounded Gaussian curvature. It has infinite genus, infinitely many catenoidal type ends and one limit end.
We study the asymptotic behavior of Moncrief lines on $2+1$ maximal globally hyperbolic spatially compact space-time $M$ of non-negative constant curvature. We show that when the unique geodesic lamination associated with $M$ is either…
A basic feature of Teichm\"uller theory of Riemann surfaces is the interplay of two dimensional hyperbolic geometry, the behavior of geodesic-length functions and Weil-Petersson geometry. Let $\mathcal{T}_g$ $(g\geq 2)$ be the Teichm\"uller…
We consider sequences of open Riemannian manifolds with boundary that have no regularity conditions on the boundary. To define a reasonable notion of a limit of such a sequence, we examine "$\delta$ inner regions" which avoid the boundary…
We obtain bounds on the numbers of intersections between triangulations as the conformal structure of a surface varies along a Teichm{\"u}ller geodesic contained in an $\mathrm{SL}\left(2,\mathbb{R}\right)$-orbit closure of rank 1 in the…
An almost Fuchsian 3-manifold is a quasi-Fuchsian manifold which contains an incompressible closed minimal surface with principal curvatures in the range of $(-1,1)$. Such a 3-manifold $M$ admits a foliation of parallel surfaces, whose…
The Gardiner-Masur compactification of Teichm\"uller space is homeomorphic to the horofunction compactification of the Teichm\"uller metric. Let $\xi$ and $\eta$ be a pair of boundary points in the Gardiner-Masur compactification that fill…
In this paper, we introduce a new asymmetric weak metric on the Teichm{\"u}ller space of a closed orientable surface with (possibly empty) punctures.This new metric, which we call the Teichm{\"u}ller-Randers metric, is an asymmetric…
In many singular metric spaces, the regularity of a shortest-length curve is unknown. Algebraic varieties, or more generally sets defined by finitely many polynomial or real analytic equalities or inequalities, all locally partition into…
Let $S$ be a closed, genus $g$ surface. The space of geodesic currents on $S$ encompasses the set of closed curves up to homotopy, as well as Teichm\"uller space, and many other spaces of structures on $S$. We show that one can define a…
The space of broken hyperbolic structures generalizes the Teichm\"uller space of a punctured surface, and the space of projectivized broken measured foliations (equivalently, the space of projectivized affine foliations) generalizes the…
We provide a complete classification of Teichm\"uller curves occurring in hyperelliptic components of the meromorphic strata of differentials. Using a non-existence criterion based on how Teichm\"uller curves intersect the boundary of the…
Consider a closed surface $S$ with negative Euler characteristic, and an admissible probability measure on the fundamental group of $S$ with finite first moment with respect to some hyperbolic metric on $S$. Corresponding to each point in…
If $p : Y \to X$ is an unramified covering map between two compact oriented surfaces of genus at least two, then it is proved that the embedding map, corresponding to $p$, from the Teichm\"uller space ${\cal T}(X)$, for $X$, to ${\cal…
We give two flexible and degenerate constructions related to a theorem of Thurston. First, we produce geodesic segments for Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}(S_g)$ that remain geodesics after adding arbitrary…
Given a compact orientable surface with finitely many punctures $\Sigma$, let $\Cal S(\Sigma)$ be the set of isotopy classes of essential unoriented simple closed curves in $\Sigma$. We determine a complete set of relations for a function…
