This is a commentary on Teichm\"ullers' paper "Ver\"anderliche Riemannsche Fl\"achen" (Variable Riemann Surfaces), published in 1944. This paper is the last one that Teichm\"uller wrote on the problem of moduli. At most places the paper…
Let $X$ be a compact strictly pseudoconvex embeddable Cauchy-Riemann manifold and let $T_P$ be the Toeplitz operator on $X$ associated with a first-order pseudodifferential operator $P$. In our previous work we established the asymptotic…
It's well-known in \kahler geometry that the infinite dimensional symmetric space $\hcal$ of smooth \kahler metrics in a fixed \kahler class on a polarized \kahler manifold is well approximated by finite dimensional submanifolds $\bcal_k…
Teichm\"uller's classical mapping problem for plane domains concerns finding a lower bound for the maximal dilatation of a quasiconformal homeomorphism which holds the boundary pointwise fixed, maps the domain onto itself, and maps a given…
Given a closed surface endowed with a volume form, we equip the space of compatible Riemannian structures with the structure of an infinite-dimensional symplectic manifold. We show that the natural action of the group of volume-preserving…
We introduce Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates on Teicm\"uller spaces of surfaces of infinite type. The definition is relative to a given pair of pants decomposition of the surface. We start by establishing conditions under which any pair of…
Let $X_0$ be an infinite genus hyperbolic surface (whose boundary components, if any, are closed geodesics or punctures) which has an upper bounded pants decomposition. The length spectrum Teichm\"uller space $T_{ls}(X_0)$ consists of all…
We investigate the invariant metrics and complex geodesics in the universal Teichm\"{u}ller space and Teichm\"{u}ller space of the punctured disk using Milin's coefficient inequalities. This technique allows us to establish that all…
We study compact hyperbolic surface laminations. These are a generalization of closed hyperbolic surfaces which appear to be more suited to the study of Teichm\"uller theory than arbitrary non-compact surfaces. We show that the…
We give a real-analytic section for the Teichm\"uller projection onto the VMO-Teichm\"uller space by using the variant of Beurling-Ahlfors extension by heat kernel introduced by Fefferman, Kenig and Pipher in 1991. Based on this result, we…
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…
Registration, which aims to find an optimal 1-1 correspondence between shapes, is an important process in different research areas. Conformal mappings have been widely used to obtain a diffeomorphism between shapes that minimizes angular…
We use meromorphic quadratic differentials with higher order poles to parametrize the Teichm\"uller space of crowned hyperbolic surfaces. Such a surface is obtained on uniformizing a compact Riemann surface with marked points on its…
This article surveys and develops the use of simultaneous uniformization for the study of chord-arc curves in the BMO Teichm\"uller space. The method of simultaneous uniformization provides a unified complex-analytic framework in which…
We show that any grafting ray in Teichm\"{u}ller space determined by an arational lamination or a multi-curve is (strongly) asymptotic to a Teichm\"{u}ller geodesic ray. As a consequence the projection of a generic grafting ray to moduli…
We study a particular class of representations from the fundamental groups of punctured spheres $\Sigma_{0,n}$ to the group $\text{PSL} (2,\mathbb R)$ (and their moduli spaces), that we call \emph{super-maximal}. Super-maximal…
Let $T^m_f $ be the Toeplitz quantization of a real $ C^{\infty}$ function defined on the sphere $ \mathbb{CP}(1)$. $T^m_f $ is therefore a Hermitian matrix with spectrum $\lambda^m= (\lambda_0^m,\ldots,\lambda_m^m)$. Schur's theorem says…
We list up to M\"obius equivalence all possible degrees and embedding dimensions of real surfaces that are covered by at least two pencils of circles, together with the number of such pencils. In addition, we classify incidences between the…
This paper is motivated by an open question in $p$-adic Fourier theory, that seems to be more difficult than it appears at first glance. Let $L$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with ring of integers $o_L$ and let $\mathbb{C}_p$…
Let A be a subspace arrangement and let chi(A,t) be the characteristic polynomial of its intersection lattice L(A). We show that if the subspaces in A are taken from L(B_n), where B_n is the type B Weyl arrangement, then chi(A,t) counts a…
