We define a universal Teichm\"uller space for locally quasiconformal mappings whose dilatation grows not faster than a certain rate. Paralleling the classical Teichm\"uller theory, we prove results of existence and uniqueness for extremal…

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.

It is known that every nonorientable surface $\Sigma$ has an orientable double cover $\tilde{\Sigma}$. The covering map induces an involution on the moduli space $\tilde{\M}$ of gauge equivalence classes of flat $G$-connections on…

For a Riemann surface $X$ and the moduli of regularly stable $G$-bundles $M$, there is a naturally occuring "$adjoint$" vector bundle over $X \times M$. One can take the determinant of this vector bundle with respect to the projection map…

In the theory of Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces, we consider the set of Riemann surfaces which are quasiconformally equivalent. For topologically finite Riemann surfaces, it is quite easy to examine if they are quasiconformally…

We consider Riemann surfaces $\Sigma$ with $n$ borders homeomorphic to $\mathbb{S}^1$ and no handles. Using generalized Grunsky operators, we define a period mapping from the infinite-dimensional Teichm\"uller space of surfaces of this type…

We describe explicitly a noncommutative deformation of the *-algebra of functions on the Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces with holes equivariant w.r.t. the mapping class group action.

We apply the methods of simultaneous uniformization and composition operators on Besov spaces to the Teichm\"uller space $T^Z$ of circle diffeomorphisms with Zygmund continuous derivatives. As consequences, we obtain the following: (1) a…

We show that every metric space with bounded geometry uniformly embeds into an explicit reflexive Banach space (a direct sum of l^p spaces). In the case of discrete groups we show the analogue of a-T-menability. That is, we construct a…

Let $(M,g)$ be a $C^\infty$-smooth, $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold which is diffeomorphic to $\RR^n$ and admit an action of a properly discontinuous and cocompact group. This work proves the existence of a $C^\infty$ equivariant…

The celebrated Nash Embedding Theorem asserts that every closed Riemannian manifold can be isometrically embedded into a sufficiently high-dimensional Euclidean space. In this paper, we prove an analogous result in the conformally compact…

We prove that the mapping class group $\Gamma_{g,n}$ for surfaces of negative Euler characteristic has a cofinite universal space $\E$ for proper actions (the resulting quotient is a finite $CW$-complex). The approach is to construct a…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a class of Banach spaces and let $T=\{T_\alpha\}_{\alpha\in A}$ be a set of metric spaces. We say that $T$ is a set of {\it test-spaces} for $\mathcal{P}$ if the following two conditions are equivalent: (1)…

Thurston boundary of 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 generalized Teichm\"uller type…

We extend the framework of modular invariant supersymmetric theories to encompass invariance under more general discrete groups $\Gamma$, that allow the presence of several moduli and make connection with the theory of automorphic forms.…

We show that every $\mathbb R$-linear surjective isometry between the cotangent spaces to the Teichm\"uller space equipped with the Thurston norm is induced by some isometry between the underlying hyperbolic surfaces, which is an analogue…

We construct a quantization of the moduli space $\mathcal{GH}_\Lambda(S\times\mathbb{R})$ of maximal globally hyperbolic Lorentzian metrics on $S\times \mathbb{R}$ with constant sectional curvature $\Lambda$, for a punctured surface $S$.…

We build an augmentation of the Masur-Minsky marking complex by Groves-Manning combinatorial horoballs to obtain a graph we call the augmented marking complex, $\mathcal{AM}(S)$. Adapting work of Masur-Minsky, we prove that…

We relate the theory of moduli spaces $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,\mathcal{A}}$ of stable weighted curves of genus $0$ to the equivariant topology of complex Grassmann manifolds $G_{n,2}$, with the canonical action of the compact torus…

We use weighted polynomial approximation to prove the existence of a compact set K with non-empty interior and a function f is dense in the space A(K) of all continuous functions on K that are holomorphic in the interior of K, endowed with…
