Moduli of bordered Riemann Surfaces - Complex structure and K\

We introduce natural complex structures on the Teichmül-ler space of bordered Riemann surfaces. The general case follows from the situation of one closed geodesic γ on a Riemann surface X of genus p…

Families of Riemann Surfaces and Weil-Petersson Geometry

This book is the companion to the CBMS lectures of Scott Wolpert at Central Connecticut State University. The lectures span across areas of research progress on deformations of hyperbolic surfaces…

Moduli space theory and Teichmüller space theory are concerned with Riemann surfaces. The moduli space M(R) of a topological surface R (with negative Euler characteristic) is the space of all…

The moduli space of maps with crosscaps: the relative signs of the natural automorphisms

Just as a symmetric surface with separating fixed locus halves into two oriented bordered surfaces, an arbitrary symmetric surface halves into two oriented symmetric half-surfaces, i.e. surfaces with…

JT gravity as a matrix integral

We present exact results for partition functions of Jackiw-Teitelboim (JT) gravity on two-dimensional surfaces of arbitrary genus with an arbitrary number of boundaries. The boundaries are of the…

Convex hulls in hyperbolic 3-space and generalized orthospectral identities

We begin this dissertation by studying the relationship between the Poincaré metric of a simply connected domain Ω ⊂ C and the geometry of Dome(Ω), the boundary of the convex hull of its complement.…

Masur-Veech volumes, frequencies of simple closed geodesics and intersection numbers of moduli spaces of curves

We express the Masur-Veech volume and the area Siegel-Veech constant of the moduli space of meromorphic quadratic differential with simple poles as polynomials in the intersection numbers of…

New identities for small hyperbolic surfaces

Luo and Tan gave a new identity for hyperbolic surfaces with/without geodesic boundary in terms of dilogarithms of the lengths of simple closed geodesics on embedded three‐holed spheres or one‐holed…

A pr 2 01 8 UNIFORM BOUNDS FOR WEIL-PETERSSON CURVATURES

We find bounds for Weil-Petersson holomorphic sectional curvature, and the Weil-Petersson curvature operator in several regimes, that do not depend on the topology of the underlying surface. Among…

The Fenchel-Nielsen deformation

The uniformization theorem provides that a Riemann surface S of negative Euler characteristic has a metric of constant curvature -1. A hyperbolic structure can be understood in terms of its…

The Weil-Petersson volume of the moduli space of punc-tured spheres

A V-shaped clamp has opposed first and second ends. The first end can accommodate the head of a conventional reduction wrench. The second end supports a threaded rod that approaches the first end…

Areas of two-dimensional moduli spaces

Wolpert’s formula expresses the Weil-Petersson 2-form in terms of the Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates in case of a closed or punctured surface. The area-form in Fenchel-Nielsen coordinates is invariant…

THE ORTHOGONAL SPECTRUM OF A HYPERBOLIC MANIFOLD

Introduction. In this paper, we investigate the geometry of embedded hypersurfaces in hyperbolic manifolds of dimension greater than one. Our focus is on hypersurfaces that are either totally…

Generalizations of McShane's identity to hyperbolic cone-surfaces
