THE REAL HYPER-ELLIPTIC SUBSPACES OF TEICHMüLLER SPACE AND MODULI SPACE

Although the existence and uniqueness of Strebel differentials are proved by Jenkins and Strebel, the specific constructions of Strebel differentials are difficult. Two special kinds of special Strebel differentials are constructed in [5, 6]. The Strebel rays [3] and the eventually distance minimizing rays [9] are important in Teichm¨uller spaces and moduli spaces, respectively. Motivated by the study of [3, 9], two special kinds of Strebel rays in the real hyper-elliptic subspace of Teichm¨uller space and two special kinds of EDM rays in the real hyper-elliptic subspace of moduli space are studied in this article.

THE EVENTUALLY DISTANCE MINIMIZING RAYS IN MODULI SPACES

The eventually distance minimizing ray（EDM ray） in moduli spaces of the Riemann surfaces of analytic finite type with 3 g ＋ n-3 〉 0 is studied, which was introduced by Farb and Masur [5]. The asymptotic distance of EDM rays in a moduli space and the distance of end points of EDM rays in the boundary of the moduli space in the augmented moduli space are discussed in this article. A relation between the asymptotic distance of EDM rays and the distance of their end points is established. It is proved also that the distance of end points of two EDM rays is equal to that of end points of two Strebel rays in the Teichmu¨ller space of a covering Riemann surface which are leftings of some representatives of the EDM rays. Meanwhile, simpler proofs for some known results are given.

Local rigidity of the Teichmüller space with the Thurston metric

We show that every R-linear surjective isometry between the cotangent spaces to the Teichmüller space equipped with the Thurston norm is induced by some isometry between the underlying hyperbolic surfaces.This is an analogue of Royden's theorem concerning the Teichmüller norm.

Kobayashi’s and Teichmuller’s Metrics and Bers Complex Manifold Structure on Circle Diffeomorphisms

Given a modulus of continuity ω,we consider the Teichmuller space TC1+ω as the space of all orientation-preserving circle diffeomorphisms whose derivatives are ω-continuous functions modulo the space of Mobius transformations preserving the unit disk.We study several distortion properties for diffeomorphisms and quasisymmetric homeomorphisms.Using these distortion properties,we give the Bers complex manifold structure on the Teichm(u| ")ller space TC^1+H as the union of over all0 <α≤1,which turns out to be the largest space in the Teichmuller space of C1 orientation-preserving circle diffeomorphisms on which we can assign such a structure.Furthermore,we prove that with the Bers complex manifold structure on TC^1+H ,Kobayashi’s metric and Teichmuller’s metric coincide.

Integrably asymptotic affine homeomorphisms of the circle and Teichmüller spaces

A quasisymmetric homeomorphism of the unit circle S1 is called integrably asymptotic affine if it admits a quasiconformal extension into the unit disk so that its complex dilatation is square integrable in the Poincaré metric on the unit disk. Let QS* (s1) be the space of such maps. Here we give some characterizations and properties of maps in QS* (S1). We also show that QS* (S1)/M?b (S1) is the completion of Diff(S1)/M?b(S1) in the Weil-Petersson metric.

Integrable Teichmüller spaces

A new kind of subspaces of the universal Teichmüller space is introduced. Some characterizations of the subspaces are given in terms of univalent functions, Beltrami coefficients and quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of the boundary of the unit disc.

A function model for the Teichmüller space of a closed hyperbolic Riemann surface

We introduce a function model for the Teichmüller space of a closed hyperbolic Riemann surface.Then we introduce a new metric on the Teichmüller space by using the maximum norm on the function space.We prove that the identity map from the Teichmüller space equipped with the Teichmüller metric to the Teichmüller space equipped with this new metric is uniformly continuous. Moreover, we prove that the inverse of the identity, i.e., the identity map from the Teichmüller space equipped with this new metric to the Teichmüller space equipped with the Teichmüller metric, is continuous(but not uniformly). Therefore, the topology induced by the new metric is the same as the topology induced by the Teichmüller metric on the Teichmüller space.Finally, we give a remark about the pressure metric on the function model and the Weil-Petersson metric on the Teichmüller space.

On the Geometry of Infinite Dimensional Teichmüller Spaces

Teichmüller curves in the space of two-genus double covers of flat tori

This paper focuses on Teichmüller curves in the space of two-genus double covers of flat tori,identifying all of them, counting them with respect to their triangular areas, formulating the numbers of their cusps, and characterizing the ones without a simple cusp. Some applications are also discussed.

A NEW PROOF OF THE DELTA INEQUALITY

The purpose of this paper is to give a relatively elementary and direct proof of the Delta Inequality, which plays a very important role in the study of the extremal problem of quasiconformal mappings.

Isometric Embeddings of Subsets of Boundaries of Teichmüller Spaces of Compact Hyperbolic Riemann Surfaces

It is known that every finitely unbranched holomorphic covering π:S→S of a compact Riemann surface S with genus g≥2 induces an isometric embedding Φπ:Teich(S)→Teich(S).By the mutual relations between Strebel rays in Teich(S)and their embeddings in Teich(S),we show that the 1 st-strata space of the augmented Teichmüller space Teich(S)can be embedded in the augmented Teichmüller space Teich(S)isometrically.Furthermore,we show that Φπ induces an isometric embedding from the set Teich(S)B(∞)consisting of Busemann points in the horofunction boundary of Teich(S)into Teich(S)B(∞)with the detour metric.

Teichmüller spaces for pointed Fuchsian groups

Let T(G) be the Teichmüller space of a Fuchsian group G and T(G) be the pointed Teichmüller space of a corresponding pointed Fuchsian group G.We will discuss the existence of holomorphic sections of the projection from the space M(G) of Beltrami coefficients for G to T(G) and of that from T(G) to T(G) as well.We will also study the biholomorphic isomorphisms between two pointed Teichmüller spaces.

A new coordinate of Teichmüller space

By using the theory of quadratic differentials, we give a new coordinate to the Teichmüller space as well as the trajectory structures of a special class of Jenkins-Strebel quadratic differentials.

Hyperbolic Mapping Classes and Their Lifts on the Bers Fiber Space

Let S be a Riemann surface with genus p and n punctures. Assume that 3p- 3 ＋ n 〉 0 and n 〉 1. Let a be a puncture of S and let S = S∪{α}. Then all mapping classes in the mapping class group Mods that fixes the puncture a can be projected to mapping classes of Mod$ under the forgetful map. In this paper the author studies the mapping classes in Mods that can be projected to a given hyperbolic mapping class in Mode.

Koebe Problems and Teichmiiller Theory

A Note on the Density of a Subset of All Integrable Holomorphic Quadratic Differentials

Let T0（Δ） be the subset of the universal Teichm¨uller space, which consists all of the elements with boundary dilatation 1. Let SQ（Δ） be the unit ball of the space Q（Δ） of all integrable holomorphic quadratic differentials on the unit disk Δ and Q0（Δ） be defined as Q0（Δ） = {？ ∈ SQ（Δ） ： there exists a k ∈（0, 1） such that [kˉ？ ｜？｜] ∈ T0（Δ）}. In this paper, we show that Q0（Δ） is dense in SQ（Δ）.

A problem in extremal quasiconformal extensions

A constantK 0 (m) (h) is introduced for every quasisymmetric mappingh of the unit circle and every integerm≥4 which contains the constantK 0(h) (indicated by the change in module of the quadrilaterals with vertices on the circle) as a special case. A necessary and sufficient condition is established forK 0 (m) (h) =K 1(h). It is shown that there are infinitely many quasisymmetric mappings of the unit circle having the property thatK 0 (m) (h)<K 1(h), wherek 1(h) is the maximal dilatation ofh.

On the boundary value problem for harmonic maps of the Poincaré disc

The boundary value problem for harmonic maps of the Poincare disc is discussed. The emphasis is on the non-smoothness of the given boundary values in the problem. Let T . be a subspace of the universal Teichmüller space, defined as a set of normalized quasisymmetric homeomorphisms h of the unit circle S onto itself where h admits a quasiconformal extension to the unit disc D with a complex dilatation μ satisfyingwhere ρ(z)|dz|2 is the Poincare metric of D. Let B . be a Banach space consisting of holomorphic quadratic differentials φ in D with normsIt is shown that for any given quasisymmetric homeomorphism h : S1→S1∈ T . , there is a unique quasiconformal harmonic map of D with respect to the Poincare metric whose boundary corresponding is h and the Hopf differential of such a harmonic map belongs to B .
