We give a proof of an unpublished result of Thurston showing that given any hyperbolic metric on a surface of finite type with nonempty boundary, there exists another hyperbolic metric on the same surface for which the lengths of all simple…

We study the geometry of horospheres in Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces of genus g with n punctures, where $3g-3+n\geq 2$. We show that every $C^1$-diffeomorphism of Teichm\"uller space to itself that preserves horospheres is an…

Let $S$ be a Riemann surface of analytic finite type or the unit disk in the complex plane. Let $[\mu]$ denote the Teichm\"uller equivalence classes of Beltrami differentials $\mu $. We apply the Fundamental Inequalities to obtain a binary…

We prove that an open manifold with nonnegative Ricci curvature, linear volume growth and noncollapsed ends always splits off a line at infinity. This completes the final step to prove the existence of isoperimetric sets given large volumes…

In this article we first show that any finite cover of the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with $g\geq 2$ does not admit any Riemannian metric $ds^2$ of nonnegative scalar curvature such that $ds^2 \succ ds_{T}^2$ where…

We show that if $x$ is a strongly extreme point of a bounded closed convex subset of a Banach space and the identity has a geometrically and topologically good enough local approximation at $x$, then $x$ is already a denting point. It turns…

We consider a geometric property of the closest-points projection to a geodesic in Teichm\"uller space: the projection is called contracting if arbitrarily large balls away from the geodesic project to sets of bounded diameter. (This…

In the paper arXiv:1411.4887 [math.AP] it is shown that the set of Riemannian metrics which do not admit global limiting Carleman weights is open and dense, by studying the conformally invariant Weyl and Cotton tensors. In the paper…

We show that any element of the universal Teichm\"uller space is realized by a unique minimal Lagrangian diffeomorphism from the hyperbolic plane to itself. The proof uses maximal surfaces in the 3-dimensional anti-de Sitter space. We show…

In 1981 Masur proved the existence of a dense geodesic in the moduli space for a Teichm\"uller space. We prove an analogue theorem for reduced Outer Space endowed with the Lipschitz metric. We also prove two results possibly of independent…

We construct a counterexample for an analogue of Masur's criterion in the setting of Teichm\"uller space equipped with the Thurston metric. For that, we find a minimal, filling, non-uniquely ergodic lamination $\lambda$ on the seven-times…

We study the asymptotic behavior of extremal length along Teichm\"uller rays. Specifically, we determine the limit of extremal length along a Teichm\"uller ray and obtain an explicit expression for this limit, which complements a related…

This paper shows that every totally-geodesic isometry from the unit disk to a finite-dimensional Teichm\"uller space for the intrinsic Kobayashi metric is either holomorphic or anti-holomorphic; in particular, it is a Teichm\"uller disk.…

Pulling back complex structures along a branched covering induces a holomorphic isometric embedding of Teichm\"uller spaces. We show that for dimension at least $2$, all isometric embeddings arise from branched coverings. This generalizes a…

We introduce a new type of boundary for proper geodesic spaces, called the Morse boundary, that is constructed with rays that identify the "hyperbolic directions" in that space. This boundary is a quasi-isometry invariant and thus produces…

For a big class represented by $\theta$, we show that the metric space $(\mathcal{E}^{p}(X,\theta),d_{p})$ for $p \geq 1$ is Buseman convex. This allows us to construct a chordal metric $d_{p}^{c}$ on the space of geodesic rays in…
