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…

Let $S$ be a closed, genus $g$ surface. The space of geodesic currents on $S$ encompasses the set of closed curves up to homotopy, as well as Teichm\"uller space, and many other spaces of structures on $S$. We show that one can define a…

We show that for every simple closed curve \alpha, the extremal length and the hyperbolic length of \alpha are quasi-convex functions along any Teichmuller geodesic. As a corollary, we conclude that, in Teichmuller space equipped with the…

We introduce and begin a systematic study of sublinearly contracting projections. We give two characterizations of Morse quasi-geodesics in an arbitrary geodesic metric space. One is that they are sublinearly contracting; the other is that…

In this paper we explore the idea that Teichm\"uller space is hyperbolic "on average." Our approach focuses on studying the geometry of geodesics which spend a definite proportion of time in some thick part of Teichm\"uller space. We…

An expansion is developed for the Weil-Petersson Riemann curvature tensor in the thin region of the Teichm\"{u}ller and moduli spaces. The tensor is evaluated on the gradients of geodesic-lengths for disjoint geodesics. A precise lower…

In this article, we introduce a geometrical notion, property strongly UC which is stronger than property UC and prove the existence of best approximations for a new class of almost cyclic $\psi$-contraction maps in a metric space. As a…

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.

We study the Teichm\"uller metric on the Teichm\"uller space of a surface of finite type, in regions where the injectivity radius of the surface is small. The main result is that in such regions the Teichm\"uller metric is approximated up…

We review and organize some results describing the behavior of a Teichm\"uller geodesic and draw several applications: 1) We show that Teichm\"uller geodesics do not back track. 2) We show that a Teichm\"uller geodesic segment whose…

Subsurface projection has become indispensable in studying the geometry of the mapping class group and the curve complex of a surface. When the subsurface is an annulus, this projection is sometimes called relative twisting. We give two…

We investigate shrinking maps from a cusped hyperbolic surface into the moduli space of closed Riemann surfaces. For such a map and its lift to the Teichm\"uller space, we consider whether they are quasi-isometric embeddings with respect to…

We construct explicit examples of geodesics in the mapping class group and show that the shadow of a geodesic in mapping class group to the curve graph does not have to be a quasi-geodesic. We also show that the quasi-axis of a…

We show that, in the Teichm\"uller metric, "thin-framed triangles are thin"---that is, under suitable hypotheses, the variation of geodesics obeys a hyperbolic-like inequality. This theorem has applications to the study of random walks on…

We study the Lipschitz metric on Outer Space and prove that fully irreducible elements of Out(F_n) act by hyperbolic isometries with axes which are strongly contracting. As a corollary, we prove that the axes of fully irreducible…

For complete complex connections on almost complex manifolds we introduce a natural definition of compactification. This is based on almost c--projective geometry, which is the almost complex analogue of projective differential geometry.…

Given a surface of infinite topological type, there are several Teichm\"uller spaces associated with it, depending on the basepoint and on the point of view that one uses to compare different complex structures. This paper is about the…

The moduli space of Higgs bundles can be defined as a quotient of an infinite-dimensional space. Moreover, by the Kuranishi slice method, it is equipped with the structure of a normal complex space. In this paper, we will use analytic…

For every proper geodesic space $X$ we introduce its quasi-geometric boundary $\partial_{QG}X$ with the following properties: 1. Every geodesic ray $g$ in $X$ converges to a point of the boundary $\partial_{QG}X$ and for every point $p$ in…

For some values of the degrees of the equations, we show, using geometric invariant theory, that the coarse moduli space of smooth complete intersections in P^N is quasi-projective. ----- Pour certaines valeurs des degres des equations, on…
