The present paper is composed of two parts. In the first one we define two pseudo-metrics $L_F$ and $K_F$ on the Teichmu\"uller space of semi-translation surfaces $\mathcal{TQ}_g(\underline k,\epsilon)$, which are the symmetric counterparts…
In this article, we extend Thurston's asymmetric metric and the associated Finsler norm, originally defined for Teichm\"uller space, to the setting of Margulis spacetimes. We also establish several convexity properties of both the…
We highlight several analogies between the Finsler (infinitesimal) properties of Teichm\"uller's metric and Thurston's asymmetric metric on Teichm\"uller space. Thurston defined his asymmetric metric in analogy with Teichm\"ullers' metric,…
We prove that the Teichm\"uller space of surfaces with given boundary lengths equipped with the arc metric (resp. the Teichm\"uller metric) is almost isometric to the Teichm\"uller space of punctured surfaces equipped with the Thurston…
In this paper, we introduce an asymmetric metric on the space of marked Euclidean triangles, and we prove several properties of this metric, including two equivalent definitions of this metric, one of them comparing ratios of functions of…
This paper is a survey about the Thurston metric on the Teichm\"uller space. The central issue is the constructions of extremal Lipschitz maps between hyperbolic surfaces. We review several constructions, including the original work of…
We show that the Teichm\"uller space of a surface without boundary and with punctures, equipped with Thurston's metric is the limit (in an appropriate sense) of Teichm\"uller spaces of surfaces with boundary, equipped with their arc…
The aim of this paper is to relate Thurston's metric on Teichm\"uller space to several ideas initiated by T. Sorvali on isomorphisms between Fuchsian groups. In particular, this will give a new formula for Thurston's asymmetric metric for…
We provide a good dynamical framework allowing to generalize Thurston's asymmetric metric and the associated Finsler norm from Teichm\"uller space to large classes of Anosov representations. In many cases, including the space of Hitchin…
This is the first paper to systematically study the earthquake metric, an asymmetric Finsler metric on Teichm{\"u}ller space introduced by Thurston. We provide proofs for several assertions of Thurston and establish new properties of this…
The Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)$ of a surface $\Sigma$ is equipped with Thurston's asymmetric metric. Stretch lines are oriented geodesics for this metric on $\mathcal{T}(\Sigma)$. We give the asymptotic behavior of the lengths…
In this paper, we show that the analogue of Thurston's asymmetric metric on the Teichm{\"u}ller space of flat structures on the torus is weak Finsler and we give a geometric description of its unit sphere at each point in the tangent space…
Using the identification of the symmetric space $\mathrm{SL}(n,\mathbb{R})/\mathrm{SO}(n)$ with the Teichm\"uller space of flat $n$-tori of unit volume, we explore several metrics and compactifications of these spaces, drawing inspiration…
We study the Lipschitz metric on Teichmuller space (defined by Thurston) and compare it with the Teichmuller metric. We show that in the thin part of Teichmuller space the Lipschitz metric is approximated up to bounded additive distortion…
We undertake a systematic study of the infinitesimal geometry of the Thurston metric, showing that the topology, convex geometry and metric geometry of the tangent and cotangent spheres based at any marked hyperbolic surface representing a…
We introduce a new method for studying length spectrum rigidity problems based on a combination of ideas from dynamical systems and geometric group theory. This allows us to compare the marked length spectrum of metrics and distance-like…
The Thurston metric on Teichmuller space, first introduced by W. P. Thurston is an asymmetric metric on Teichmuller space defined by $d_{Th}(X,Y) = \frac12 log\sup_{\alpha} \frac{l_{\alpha}(Y)}{l_{\alpha}(X)}$. This metric is geodesic, but…
We continue the study of the analogue of Thurston's metric on the Teichm{\"u}ller space of Euclidean triangle which was started by Saglam and Papadopoulos in [1].By direct calculation, we give explicit expressions of the distance function…
A generalization of metric space is presented which is shown to admit a theory strongly related to that of ordinary metric spaces. To avoid the topological effects related to dropping any of the axioms of metric space, first a new, and…
In 1986 William P. Thurston introduced the celebrated (asymmetric) Lipschitz distance on the Teichmueller space of a (closed or punctured) surface. In this paper we extend his work to the Teichmueller space of a surface with boundary…
