We construct new coordinates for the Teichm\"uller space Teich of a punctured torus into $\bold{R} \times\bold{R}^+$. The coordinates depend on the representation of Teich as a space of marked Kleinian groups $G_\mu$ that depend…
A theorem due to D. Bernstein states that Euler characteristic of a hypersurface defined by a polynomial f in (C\{0})^n is equal (upto a sign) to n! times volume of the Newton polyhedron of f. This result is related to algebaric torus…
We prove that the triviality of the Galois action on the suitably twisted odd-dimensional \'etale cohomogy group of a smooth projective varietiy with finite coefficients implies the existence of certain primitive roots of unity in the field…
For any pseudo-Anosov diffeomorphism on a closed orientable surface $S$ of genus greater than one, it is known by the work of Bers and Thurston that the topological entropy agrees with the translation distance on the Teichm\"uller space…
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…
In this paper we parametrize the Teichm\"uller spaces of constructible Koebe groups, that is Kleinian group that arise as covering of $2-$orbifolds determined by certain normal subgroups of their fundamental groups. We also study the…
In this chapter, we discuss normal generators for mapping class groups of surfaces. Especially, we focus on the relation between normal generation of a mapping class with its asymptotic translation lengths on the Teichm\"uller space and the…
We study a special Teichmueller curve in the moduli space of curves of genus 3 that is intersected by infinitely many other Teichmueller curves. The Veech group of the underlying translation surface is SL_2(Z). All occurring Teichmueller…
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…
In a family of compact, canonically polarized, complex manifolds the first variation of the lengths of closed geodesics is computed. As an application, we show the coincidence of the Fenchel-Nielsen and Weil-Petersson symplectic forms on…
The aim of these notes is to provide an introduction to Anti-de Sitter geometry, with special emphasis on dimension three and on the relations with Teichm\"uller theory, whose study has been initiated by the seminal paper of Geoffrey Mess…
We introduce coordinates on the moduli spaces of maximal globally hyperbolic constant curvature 3d spacetimes with cusped Cauchy surfaces S. They are derived from the parametrisation of the moduli spaces by the bundle of measured geodesic…
In this paper we will use b-groups to construct coordinates for the Teichm\"uller spaces of 2-orbifolds. The main technical tool is the parametrization of triangle groups, which allows us to compute explicitly formul\ae\ for generators of…
In the Teichm\"uller space of a hyperbolic surface of finite type, we construct geodesic lines for Thurston's asymmetric metric having the property that when they are traversed in the reverse direction, they are also geodesic lines (up to…
As a higher genus version of universal mixed elliptic motives by Hain and Matsumoto, we consider mixed Teichm\"uller motives as certain motivic local systems on the moduli space of pointed curves. We show that the category of mixed…
We prove that a one-dimensional foliation with generic singularities on a projective space, exhibiting a Lie group transverse structure in the complement of some codimension one algebraic subset is logarithmic, i.e., it is the intersection…
Our main result is a local-to-global principle for Morse quasigeodesics, maps and actions. As an application of our techniques we show algorithmic recognizability of Morse actions and construct Morse ``Schottky subgroups'' of higher rank…
In the moduli space of quadratic differentials over complex structures on a surface, we construct a set of full Hausdorff dimension of points with bounded Teichm\"uller geodesic trajectories.The main tool is quantitative nondivergence of…
We compute the Euler characteristics of the recently discovered series of Gothic Teichm\"{u}ller curves. The main tool is the construction of 'Gothic' Hilbert modular forms vanishing at the images of these Teichm\"{u}ller curves. Contrary…
This paper attempts to relate some ideas of Grothendieck in his Esquisse d'un programme and some of the recent results on 2-dimensional topology and geometry. Especially, we shall discuss the Teichm\"uller theory, the mapping class groups,…
