This paper shows that, in dimensions two or more, there are no holomorphic isometries between Teichm\"uller spaces and bounded symmetric domains in their intrinsic Kobayashi metrics.
The Gromov width of a uniruled projective K\"ahler manifold can be bounded from above by the symplectic area of its minimal curves. We apply this result to toric varieties and thus get in this case upper bounds expressed in toric…
We show that Thurston's earthquake flow is strongly asymmetric in the sense that its normalizer is as small as possible inside the group of orbifold automorphisms of the bundle of measured geodesic laminations over moduli space. (At the…
We prove that the Shilov boundary is invariant under proper holomorphic mappings between some classes of domains (containing among others quasi-balanced domains with the continuous Minkowski functionals). Moreover, we obtain an extension…
We prove that the every quasi-isometry of Teichm\"uller space equipped with the Teichm\"uller metric is a bounded distance from an isometry of Teichm\"uller space. That is, Teichm\"uller space is quasi-isometrically rigid.
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 prove that the Teichm\"{u}ller space $\mathscr{T}$ of a closed surface of genus $g \ge 2$ cannot be biholomorphic to any domain which is locally strictly convex at some boundary point.
We exhibit many examples of closed symplectic manifolds on which there is an autonomous Hamiltonian whose associated flow has no nonconstant periodic orbits (the only previous explicit example in the literature was the torus T^2n (n\geq 2)…
We present a generalization of free fermionic topological insulators that are composed of topological subsystems of differing dimensionality. We specifically focus on topological subsystems of nonzero co-dimension are embedded within a…
We construct the defining data of two-dimensional topological field theories (TFTs) enriched by non-invertible symmetries/topological defect lines. Simple formulae for the three-point functions and the lasso two-point functions are derived,…
We show that a Kleinian surface group, or hyperbolic 3-manifold with a cusp-preserving homotopy-equivalence to a surface, has bounded geometry if and only if there is an upper bound on an associated collection of coefficients that depend…
We study the convergence of earthquake paths and horocycle paths in the Gardiner-Masur compactification of Teichm\"uller space. We show that an earthquake path directed by a uniquely ergodic or simple closed measured geodesic lamination…
On any surface we give an example of a metric that contains simple closed geodesics with arbitrary high Morse index. Similarly, on any 3-manifold we give an example of a metric that contains embedded minimal tori with arbitrary high Morse…
We show that if M is a hyperbolic 3-manifold which admits a quasigeodesic flow, then pi_1(M) acts faithfully on a universal circle by homeomorphisms, and preserves a pair of invariant laminations of this circle. As a corollary, we show that…
We prove a criterion of convergence in the augmented Teichmueller space that can be phrased in terms of convergence of the hyperbolic metrics or of quasiconformal convergence away from the nodes.
Given a Riemann surface with boundary S, the lengths of a maximal system of disjoint simple geodesic arcs on S that start and end at the boundary of S perpendicularly are coordinates on the Teichmueller space T(S). We compute the…
We define the notion of near geodesic between points of a metric space when no geodesic exists, and use this to extend Recio-Mitter's notion of geodesic complexity to non-geodesic spaces. This has potential application to topological…
The geodesic flow on a finite discrete q-manifold with or without boundary is defined as as a permutation of its ordered q-simplices. This allows to define geodesic sheets and a notion of sectional curvature.
We give a bijection between meanders and special sorts of Gauss diagrams which aroused from the Thurston generators of braid groups. It allows us to give an algorithm to construct such diagrams and to code meanders by matrices which are…
We develop techniques that lay out a basis for generalizations of the famous Thurston's Topological Characterization of Rational Functions for an infinite set of marked points and branched coverings of infinite degree. Analogously to the…
