چکیده
These are lecture notes from the summer school on Geometry, Topology and Dynamics of Character Varieties at the Institute for Mathematical Sciences, National University of Singapore in July of 2010. The objective is to give an introduction to some of the tools used in studying the degeneration of hyperbolic structures on surfaces as developed by Thurston, and in particular to describe his construction of a compactification of Teichmüller space.

Bending, buckling and free vibration responses of hyperbolic shear deformable FGM beams
This study investigated bending, buckling, and free vibration responses of hyperbolic shear deformable functionally graded (FG) higher order beams. The material properties of FG beams are varied through thickness according to power law distribution; here, the FG beam was made of aluminium/alumina, and the hyperbolic shear deformation theory was used to evaluate the effect of shear deformation i...
متن کاملHyperbolic surfaces of $L_1$-2-type
In this paper, we show that an $L_1$-2-type surface in the three-dimensional hyperbolic space $H^3subset R^4_1$ either is an open piece of a standard Riemannian product $ H^1(-sqrt{1+r^2})times S^{1}(r)$, or it has non constant mean curvature, non constant Gaussian curvature, and non constant principal curvatures.
متن کاملDegenerations of ideal hyperbolic triangulations
Let M be the interior of a compact, orientable 3–manifold with non-empty boundary a disjoint union of tori, and T be an ideal triangulation of M . The affine algebraic set D(M ; T ), a subset of which parameterises (incomplete) hyperbolic structures obtained on M using T , is defined and compactified by adding projective classes of transversely measured singular codimension–one foliations of (M...
متن کاملSurfaces with Boundary: Their Uniformizations, Determinants of Laplacians, and Isospectrality
Let Σ be a compact surface of type (g, n), n > 0, obtained by removing n disjoint disks from a closed surface of genus g. Assuming χ(Σ) < 0, we show that on Σ, the set of flat metrics which have the same Laplacian spectrum of Dirichlet boundary condition is compact in the C∞ topology. This isospectral compactness extends the result of Osgood, Phillips, and Sarnak [O-P-S3] for type (0, n) surfac...
متن کاملDegenerations of ( 1 , 3 ) abelian surfaces and Kummer surfaces
We study degenerations of Kummer surfaces associated to certain divisors in Nieto’s quintic threefold and show how they arise from boundary components of a suitable toroidal compactification of the corresponding Siegel modular threefold. The aim of this paper is to study the degenerations of an interesting class of Kummer surfaces in P in terms of degenerations of the corresponding abelian surf...
