Geometry of the Complex of Curves and of Teichmüller Space
نویسنده
چکیده
Using train tracks on a non-exceptional oriented surface S of finite type in a systematic way we give a proof that the complex of curves C(S) of S is a hyperbolic geodesic metric space. We also discuss the relation between the geometry of the complex of curves and the geometry of Teichmüller space.

An Extension of Poincare Model of Hyperbolic Geometry with Gyrovector Space Approach
The aim of this paper is to show the importance of analytic hyperbolic geometry introduced in [9]. In [1], Ungar and Chen showed that the algebra of the group $SL(2,mathbb C)$ naturally leads to the notion of gyrogroups and gyrovector spaces for dealing with the Lorentz group and its underlying hyperbolic geometry. They defined the Chen addition and then Chen model of hyperbolic geomet...
متن کاملAlgebraic models and arithmetic geometry of Teichmüller curves in genus two
A Teichmüller curve is an algebraic and isometric immersion of an algebraic curve into the moduli space of Riemann surfaces. We give the first explicit algebraic models of Teichmüller curves of positive genus. Our methods are based on the study of certain Hilbert modular forms and the use of Ahlfors’s variational formula to identify eigenforms for real multiplication on genus two Jacobians. We ...
متن کاملSensitivity Analysis of the Effect of Pore Structure and Geometry on Petrophysical and Electrical Properties of Tight Media: Random Network Modeling
Several methodologies published in the literature can be used to construct realistic pore networks for simple rocks, whereas in complex pore geometry formations, as formed in tight reservoirs, such a construction still remains a challenge. A basic understanding of pore structure and topology is essential to overcome the challenges associated with the pore scale modeling of tight porous media. A...
متن کاملThe Thurston Boundary of Teichmüller Space and Complex of Curves
Let S be a closed orientable surface with genus g ≥ 2. For a sequence σi in the Teichmüller space of S, which converges to a projective measured lamination [λ] in the Thurston boundary, we obtain a relation between λ and the geometric limit of pants decompositions whose lengths are uniformly bounded by a Bers constant L. We also show that this bounded pants decomposition is related to the Gromo...

A new high energetic copper(II) complex, [Cu(μ-DAMT)Cl2]2, was prepared in reaction between 4,5-diamino-3-methyl-4H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ium chloride (DAMT.HCl)and copper(II) nitrate and identified by elemental analysis and spectral characterization. The spectral and physical characterizations of the product confirm formation of a binuclear structure of the copper(II). In the predicted structure of ...
