Complex earthquakes and Teichmüller theory
It is known that any two points in Teichmüller space are joined by an earthquake path. In this paper we show any earthquake path R → T (S) extends to a proper holomorphic mapping of a simplyconnected domain D into Teichmüller space, where R ⊂ D ⊂ C. These complex earthquakes relate Weil-Petersson geometry, projective structures, pleated surfaces and quasifuchsian groups. Using complex earthquak...
متن کاملTeichmüller Shape Space Theory and Its Application to Brain Morphometry
Here we propose a novel method to compute Teichmiiller shape space based shape index to study brain morphometry. Such a shape index is intrinsic, and invariant under conformal transformations, rigid motions and scaling. We conformally map a genus-zero open boundary surface to the Poincaré disk with the Yamabe flow method. The shape indices that we compute are the lengths of a special set of geo...
متن کاملComplex networks of earthquakes and aftershocks
We invoke a metric to quantify the correlation between any two earthquakes. This provides a simple and straightforward alternative to using space-time windows to detect aftershock sequences and obviates the need to distinguish main shocks from aftershocks. Directed networks of earthquakes are constructed by placing a link, directed from the past to the future, between pairs of events that are s...
متن کاملDual Teichmüller and Lamination Spaces
We survey explicit coordinate descriptions for two (A and X) versions of Teichmüller and lamination spaces for open 2D surfaces, and extend them to the more general setup of surfaces with distinguished collections of points on the boundary. Main features, such as mapping class group action, Poisson and symplectic structures and others, are described in these terms. The lamination spaces are int...
متن کاملQuantum Teichmüller Space
We describe explicitly a noncommutative deformation of the *-algebra of functions on the Teichmüller space of Riemann surfaces with holes equivariant w.r.t. the mapping class group action.
