Using geodesic length functions, we define a natural family of real codimension 1 subvarieties of Teichm\"uller space, namely the subsets where the lengths of two distinct simple closed geodesics are of equal length. We investigate the…
Generalizing de Vries Compactification Theorem and strengthening Leader Local Compactification Theorem, we describe the partially ordered set $(\LL(X),\le)$ of all (up to equivalence) locally compact Hausdorff extensions of a Tychonoff…
Since the seminal work of Epstein and Glaser it is well established that perturbative renormalization of ultraviolet divergences in position space amounts to extension of distributions onto diagonals. For a general Feynman graph the…
In this paper, we construct a compactification of the space of Bridgeland stability conditions on a smooth projective curve, as an analogue of Thurston compactifications in Teichm\"uller theory. In the case of elliptic curves, we compare…
For a smooth manifold $M$ we define the Teichm\"uller space $\cT(M)$ of all Riemannian metrics on $M$ and the Teichm\"uller space $\cT^\epsilon(M)$ of $\epsilon$-pinched negatively curved metrics on $M$, where $0\leq\epsilon\leq\infty$. We…
We construct several modular compactifications of the Hurwitz space $H^d_{g/h}$ of genus $g$ curves expressed as $d$-sheeted, simply branched covers of genus $h$ curves. These compactifications are obtained by allowing the branch points of…
This paper introduces a novel method for the efficient second-order accurate computation of normal fields from volume fractions on unstructured polyhedral meshes. Locally, i.e. in each mesh cell, an averaged normal is reconstructed by…
This survey is an introduction to the geometry of co-Minkowksi space, the space of unoriented spacelike hyperplanes of the Minkowski space. Affine deformations of cocompact lattices of hyperbolic isometries act on it, in a way similar to…
Convexity properties of Weil-Petersson geodesics on the Teichm\"{u}ller space of punctured Riemann surfaces are investigated. A normal form is presented for the Weil-Petersson Levi-Civita connection for pinched hyperbolic metrics. The…
We introduce a function model for the Teichm\"uller space of a closed hyperbolic Riemann surface. Then we introduce a new metric by using the maximum norm on the function space on the Teichm\"uller space. We prove that the identity map from…
We compactify the classical moduli variety of compact Riemann surfaces by attaching moduli of (metrized) graphs as boundary. The compactifications do not admit the structure of varieties and patch together to form a big connected moduli…
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…
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…
In this paper we explore the idea that Teichm\"uller space is hyperbolic "on average." Our approach focuses on studying the geometry of geodesics which spend a definite proportion of time in some thick part of Teichm\"uller space. We…
We establish a natural and geometric 1-1 correspondence between projective toric varieties of dimension $n$ and horofunction compactifications of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with respect to rational polyhedral norms. For this purpose, we explain a…
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.
We discuss the `hd-compactification' of a semi-simple Lie group to a manifold with corners; it is the real analog of the wonderful compactification of deConcini and Procesi. There is a 1-1 correspondence between the boundary faces of the…
Given a topological orientable surface of finite or infinite type equipped with a pair of pants decomposition $\mathcal{P}$ and given a base complex structure $X$ on $S$, there is an associated deformation space of complex structures on…
We determine the asymptotic behaviour of extremal length along arbitrary Teichm\"uller rays. This allows us to calculate the endpoint in the Gardiner-Masur boundary of any Teichm\"uller ray. We give a proof that this compactification is the…
This paper is a comprehensive introduction to the results of [7]. It grew as an expanded version of a talk given at INdAM Meeting Complex and Symplectic Geometry, held at Cortona in June 12-18, 2016. It deals with the construction of the…
