We compare some natural triangulations of the Teichm\"uller space of hyperbolic surfaces with geodesic boundary and of some bordifications. We adapt Scannell-Wolf's proof to show that grafting semi-infinite cylinders at the ends of…
Considering the Teichm\"uller space of a surface equipped with Thurston's Lipschitz metric, we study geodesic segments whose endpoints have bounded combinatorics. We show that these geodesics are cobounded, and that the closest-point…
Unlike the case of surfaces of topologically finite type, there are several different Teichm\"uller spaces that are associated to a surface of topological infinite type. These Teichm\"uller spaces first depend (set-theoretically) on whether…
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,…
Motivated by the definition of super-Teichm\"uller spaces, and Penner-Zeitlin's recent extension of this definition to decorated super-Teichm\"uller space, as examples of super Riemann surfaces, we use the super Ptolemy relations to obtain…
Let $\mathcal T$ be the Teichm\"{u}ller space of marked genus $g$, $n$ punctured Riemann surfaces with its bordification $\Tbar$ the {\em augmented Teichm\"{u}ller space} of marked Riemann surfaces with nodes, \cite{Abdegn, Bersdeg}.…
We characterization hyperbolic metrics on compact surfaces with boundary using a variational principle. As a consequence, a new parametrization of the Teichmuller space of compact surface with boundary is produced. In the new…
We prove an "Earthquake Theorem" for hyperbolic metrics with geodesic boundary on a compact surfaces $S$ with boundary: given two hyperbolic metrics with geodesic boundary on a surface with $k$ boundary components, there are $2^k$ right…
In this paper we continue the study started in part I (posted). We consider a planar, bounded, $m$-connected region $\Omega$, and let $\bord\Omega$ be its boundary. Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a cellular decomposition of $\Omega\cup\bord\Omega$,…
While there may be many Thurston metric geodesics between a pair of points in Teichm\"uller space, we find that by imposing an additional energy minimization constraint on the geodesics, thought of as limits of harmonic map rays, we select…
Tensor models and, more generally, group field theories are candidates for higher-dimensional quantum gravity, just as matrix models are in the 2d setting. With the recent advent of a 1/N-expansion for coloured tensor models, more focus has…
Let $S$ be an orientable surface with negative Euler characteristic. For $k \in \mathbb{N}$, let $\mathcal{C}_{k}(S)$ denote the $\textit{k-curve graph}$, whose vertices are isotopy classes of essential simple closed curves on $S$, and…
Based on the action of the mapping class group on the space of measured foliations, we construct a new boundary of the mapping class group and study the structure of this boundary. As an application, for any point in Teichmuller space, we…
About a decade ago Thurston proved that a vast collection of 3-manifolds carry metrics of constant negative curvature. These manifolds are thus elements of {\em hyperbolic geometry}, as natural as Euclid's regular polyhedra. For a closed…
We prove several new results on the combinatorial structures of the unit spheres of the norms induced by Thurston's metric on the tangent and cotangent spaces of the Teichm{\"u}ller space of a closed surface of negative Euler…
Thurston's boundary to the universal Teichm\"uller space $T(\mathbb{H})$ is the set of asymptotic rays to the embedding of $T(\mathbb{H})$ in the space of geodesic currents; the boundary is identified with the projective bounded measured…
Let M be a hyperbolic 3-manifold with nonempty totally geodesic boundary. We prove that there are upper and lower bounds on the diameter of the skinning map of M that depend only on the volume of the hyperbolic structure with totally…
This is a mathematical commentary on Teichm{\"u}ller's paper ``Bestimmung der extremalen quasikonformen Abbildungen bei geschlossenen orientierten Riemannschen Fl{\"a}chen'' (Determination of extremal quasiconformal maps of closed oriented…
A basic feature of Teichm\"uller theory of Riemann surfaces is the interplay of two dimensional hyperbolic geometry, the behavior of geodesic-length functions and Weil-Petersson geometry. Let $\mathcal{T}_g$ $(g\geq 2)$ be the Teichm\"uller…
We show the map $\sigma : T_g \to C_g$ sending a compact hyperbolic surface $X$ to a random simple closed geodesic on $X$ determines a proper embedding of Teichm\"uller space into the space of geodesic currents. The proof depends on a…
