Fundamental Domains in Teichm Uller Space
We introduce a natural construction of fundamental domains for actions of subgroups of the mapping class group on Teichm uller space and investigate their properties. These domains are analogous to the classical Dirichlet polyhedra associated to the actions of discrete isometry groups on hyperbolic spaces.
متن کاملUnstable Quasi - Geodesics in Teichm
In this note we will construct an example of a quasi-geodesic in the Te-ichm uller space of a surface with the following instability property: Theorem For any hyperbolic surface S whose Teichm uller space T (S) has dimension at least 4, there is a bi-innnite quasi-geodesic L in T (S) such that 1. L projects to a compact part of the moduli space M(S), but 2. L does not lie in a bounded neighborh...
متن کاملGeodesic Length Functions and Teichm
Given a compact orientable surface , let S(() be the set of iso-topy classes of essential simple closed curves in. We determine a complete set of relations for a function from S(() to R to be the geodesic length function of a hyperbolic metric with geodesic boundary on. As a consequence, the Teichm uller space of hyperbolic metrics with geodesic boundary on is reconstructed from an intrinsic co...
متن کاملA Note on Geodesics in Infinite-dimensional Teichm Uller Spaces
In this paper the following phenomena of geodesics in an innnite-dimensional Teichm uller space are founded: a geodesic (locally shortest arc) need not be a straight line (an isometric embedding of a segment of R into the Teichm uller space), no sphere is convex with respect to straight lines, and some geodesics can intersect themselves.
متن کاملNon - Uniqueness of Geodesics in Infinite - Dimensional
The non-uniqueness of geodesics joining two given points in universal Teichm uller space is proved in the previous paper 7]. The purpose of the present paper is to discuss the non-uniqueness of geodesics in any innnite-dimensional Teichm uller space. It is proved that if 1 and 2 are two extremal Beltrami diierentials belonging to a point ] of a Teichm uller space and 1 ? 2 does not belong to N-...
