چکیده
We discuss universal properties of general Teichmüller spaces. Our topics include the Teichmüller metric and the Kobayashi metric, extremality and unique extremality of quasiconformal mappings, biholomorphic maps between Teichmüller space, earthquakes and Thurston boundary.

Weil-petersson Metric on the Universal Teichmüller Space I: Curvature Properties and Chern Forms
We prove that the universal Teichmüller space T (1) carries a new structure of a complex Hilbert manifold. We show that the connected component of the identity of T (1), the Hilbert submanifold T0(1), is a topological group. We define a Weil-Petersson metric on T (1) by Hilbert space inner products on tangent spaces, compute its Riemann curvature tensor, and show that T (1) is a Kähler -Einstei...
متن کاملUniversal Teichmüller Space
We present an outline of the theory of universal Teichmüller space, viewed as part of the theory of QS, the space of quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of a circle. Although elements of QS act in one dimension, most results about QS depend on a two-dimensional proof. QS has a manifold structure modelled on a Banach space, and after factorization by PSL(2,R) it becomes a complex manifold. In applicat...
متن کاملLiftings of Holomorphic Maps into Teichmüller Spaces
We study liftings of holomorphic maps into some Teichmüller spaces. We also study the relationship between universal holomorphic motions and holomorphic lifts into Teichmüller spaces of closed sets in the Riemann sphere.
متن کاملWeil-Petersson Geometry of the Universal Teichmüller Space
The universal Teichmüller space T (1) is the simplest Teichmüller space that bridges spaces of univalent functions and general Teichmüller spaces. It was introduced by Bers [Ber65, Ber72, Ber73] and it is an infinite-dimensional complex Banach manifold. The universal Teichmüller space T (1) contains Teichmüller spaces of Riemann surfaces as complex submanifolds. The universal Teichmüller space ...
متن کاملAn analog of a modular functor from quantized Teichmüller theory
We review the quantization of Teichmüller spaces as initiated by Kashaev and Checkov/Fock. It is shown that the quantized Teichmüller spaces have factorization properties similar to those required in the definition of a modular functor.
