On Associators and the Grothendieck - Teichmuller

On Associators and the Grothendieck-teichmuller Group I

We present a formalism within which the relationship (discovered by Drinfel’d in [Dr1, Dr2]) between associators (for quasi-triangular quasi-Hopf algebras) and (a variant of) the Grothendieck-Teichmuller group becomes simple and natural, leading to a simplification of Drinfel’d’s original work. In particular, we reprove that rational associators exist and can be constructed iteratively, though ...

Drinfel’d-Ihara Relations for the Crystalline Frobenius

For K a field of characteristic zero, let M(K) denote the set of Drinfel’d associators defined over K [Dr]. The variety M is of great interest because of its connection to the deformations of universal enveloping algebras, fundamental group of the Teichmuller tower, and to Gal(Q/Q). There is a natural map M → A and for λ ∈ K, and Mλ is a torsor under GRT1 (= M0). If K << X,Y >> denotes the form...

Arithmetic Teichmuller Theory

By Grothedieck's Anabelian conjectures, Galois representations landing in outer automorphism group of the algebraic fundamental group which are associated to hyperbolic smooth curves defined over number fields encode all arithmetic information of these curves. The goal of this paper is to develope and arithmetic teichmuller theory, by which we mean, introducing arithmetic objects summarizing th...

Quantitative Recurrence and Large Deviations for Teichmuller Geodesic Flow

We prove quantitative recurrence and large deviations results for the Teichmuller geodesic flow on the moduli space Qg of holomorphic unit-area quadratic differentials on a compact genus g ≥ 2 surface.
