This work is a contribution to the classification of Teichm\"uller curves in the moduli space $\M_2$ of Riemann surfaces of genus 2. While the classification of primitive Teichm\"uller curves in $\M_2$ is complete, the classification of the…

For any compact Riemannian surface $S$ and any point $y$ in $S$, $Q_y^{-1}$ denotes the set of all points in $S$, for which $y$ is a critical point. We proved \cite{BIVZ} together with Imre B\'ar\'any that card$Q_y^{-1} \geq 1$, and that…

The aim of this paper is to study the basic properties of the Thompson metric $d_T$ in the general case of a real linear space $X$ ordered by a cone $K$. We show that $d_T$ has monotonicity properties which make it compatible with the…

Given a compact K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$, due to the work of Darvas-Di Nezza-Lu, the space of singularity types of $\omega$-psh functions admits a natural pseudo-metric $d_\mathcal S$ that is complete in the presence of positive mass.…

According to Sullivan, a space ${\cal E}$ of unimodal maps with the same combinatorics (modulo smooth conjugacy) should be treated as an infinitely-dimensional Teichm\"{u}ller space. This is a basic idea in Sullivan's approach to the…

In this paper we prove that for all $n=4k-2$, $k\ge2$ there exists closed $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifolds $M$ with negative sectional curvature that do not have the homotopy type of a locally symmetric space, such that…

The problem of starlikeness of Teichmuller spaces in Bers' embedding was raised in 1974 and is solved (negatively) for Teichmuller spaces of sufficiently large dimensions. The original proof given by the author relies on the existence of…

Let $M$ be a complete, connected Riemannian surface and suppose that $\mathcal{S} \subset M$ is a discrete subset. What can we learn about $M$ from the knowledge of all distances in the surface between pairs of points of $\mathcal{S}$? We…

We prove the holomorphic rigidity conjecture of Teichm\"{u}ller space which loosely speaking states that the action of the mapping class group uniquely determines the Teichm\"{u}ller space as a complex manifold. The method of proof is…

We prove the equivalences of several classical complete metrics on the Teichm\"uller and the moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces. We use as bridge two new K\"ahler metrics, the Ricci metric and the perturbed Ricci metric and prove that the…

We consider the superconformal index of class S theories of type D, which arise by compactification of the (2,0) D_n theories on a punctured Riemann surface C. We also allow for the presence of twist lines on C associated to the Z_2 outer…

For metric spaces, the doubling property, the uniform disconnectedness, and the uniform perfectness are known as quasi-symmetric invariant properties. The David-Semmes uniformization theorem states that if a compact metric space satisfies…

This is a survey of our recent results on the geometry of moduli spaces and Teichmuller spaces of Riemann surfaces appeared in math.DG/0403068 and math.DG/0409220. We introduce new metrics on the moduli and the Teichmuller spaces of Riemann…

Geometric models and Teichm\"uller structures have been introduced for the space of smooth expanding circle endomorphisms and for the space of uniformly symmetric circle endomorphisms. The latter one is the completion of the previous one…

Let $G$ be a finitely generated Kleinian group and let $\Delta$ be an invariant collection of components in its region of discontinuity. The Teichm\"uller space $T(\Delta,G)$ supported in $\Delta$, is the space of equivalence classes of…

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…

Consider a closed marked flat surface $S$ of genus $g\geq 2$ and area 1 and its universal covering $\tilde{S}$. We show that the measure class of the Hausdorff measure of the Gromov boundary of $\tilde{S}$ uniquely determines $S$.

In this paper, we prove that all doubling measures on the unit disk $\mathbb{D}$ are Carleson measures for the standard Dirichlet space $\mathcal{D}$. The proof has three ingredients. The first one is a characterization of Carleson measures…

We prove the existence of a constant $C > 0$ such that for any Riemannian metric $g$ on a 2-dimensional sphere $S^2$, there exist two distinct closed geodesics with lengths $L_{1}$ and $L_{2}$ satisfying $L_{1} L_{2} \leq C \cdot…

Using global considerations, Mess proved that the moduli space of globally hyperbolic flat Lorentzian structures on $S\times\mathbb{R}$ is the tangent bundle of the Teichm\"uller space of $S$, if $S$ is a closed surface. One of the goals of…
