For a stratified symplectic space, a suitable concept of stratified Kaehler polarization, defined in terms of an appropriate Lie-Rinehart algebra, encapsulates Kaehler polarizations on the strata and the behaviour of the polarizations…

A degree $d$ genus $g$ cover of the complex projective line by a smooth irreducible curve $C$ yields a vector bundle on the projective line by pushforward of the structure sheaf. We classify the bundles that arise this way when $d = 5$.…

We construct an explicit family of arithmetic Teichm\"uller curves $\mathcal{C}_{2k}$, $k\in\mathbb{N}$, supporting $\textrm{SL}(2,\mathbb{R})$-invariant probabilities $\mu_{2k}$ such that the associated…

The goal of this work is to give new quantitative results about the distribution of semi-arithmetic hyperbolic surfaces in the moduli space of closed hyperbolic surfaces. We show that two coverings of genus $g$ of a fixed arithmetic surface…

Let $\Sigma$ be a closed orientable hyperbolic surface. We introduce the notion of a \textit{geodesic current with corners} on $\Sigma$, which behaves like a geodesic current away from certain singularities (the "corners"). We topologize…

We prove a regularity theorem for harmonic maps into Teichm\"uller space. More specifically, if $u$ is a harmonic map from a Riemannian domain to the metric completion of Teichm\"uller space with respect to the Weil-Petersson metric, and…

In a well known work [Se], Graeme Segal proved that the space of holomorphic maps from a Riemann surface to a complex projective space is homology equivalent to the corresponding continuous mapping space through a range of dimensions…

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…

Many classical objects on a surface S can be interpreted as cross-ratio functions on the circle at infinity of the universal covering. This includes closed curves considered up to homotopy, metrics of negative curvature considered up to…

To a closed connected oriented surface $S$ of genus $g$ and a nonempty finite subset $P$ of $S$ is associated a simplicial complex (the arc complex) that plays a basic r\^ ole in understanding the mapping class group of the pair $(S,P)$. It…

This paper studies the gradient flow lines for the $L^2$ norm square of the Higgs field defined on the moduli space of semistable rank $2$ Higgs bundles twisted by a line bundle of positive degree over a compact Riemann surface $X$. The…

In this paper we propose an Outer space analogue for the principal stratum of the unit tangent bundle to the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}(S)$ of a closed hyperbolic surface $S$. More specifically, we focus on properties of the geodesics…

We study the Teichm\"uller metric on the Teichm\"uller space of a surface of finite type, in regions where the injectivity radius of the surface is small. The main result is that in such regions the Teichm\"uller metric is approximated up…

In this article we use techniques from tropical and logarithmic geometry to construct a non-Archimedean analogue of Teichm\"uller space $\overline{\mathcal{T}}_g$ whose points are pairs consisting of a stable projective curve over a…

We construct a Kaehler structure on the punctured cotangent bundle of the Cayley projective plane whose Kaehler form coincides with the natural symplectic form on the cotangent bundle and we show that the geodesic flow action is holomorphic…

The Teichm\"uller harmonic map flow, introduced in [9], evolves both a map from a closed Riemann surface to an arbitrary compact Riemannian manifold, and a constant curvature metric on the domain, in order to reduce its harmonic map energy…

In this paper, we study a family of curves on $S^2$ that defines a two-dimensional smooth projective plane. We use curve shortening flow to prove that any two-dimensional smooth projective plane can be smoothly deformed through a family of…

There is a canonical identification, due to the author, of a convex real projective structure on an orientable surface of genus g and a pair consisting of a conformal structure together with a holomorphic cubic differential on the surface.…

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…

This paper is devoted to characterizing complex projective structures defined on Riemann surface orbifolds and giving rise to injective developing maps defined on the monodromy covering of the surface (orbifold) in question. The relevance…
