Abstract We give an alternate and simpler proof of the important theorem stating that all invariant distances on the universal Teichmüller space 𝐓 coincide, and solve for 𝐓 the problem of Kra on isometric embeddings of a disk into Teichmüller spaces.

Abstract We prove that the Teichmüller space $\mathscr{T}$ of a closed surface of genus $g \ge 2$ cannot be biholomorphic to any domain which is locally strictly convex at some boundary point.

In this paper we study the Teichmüller space of constructible Koebe groups. These are Kleinian groups arising from planar covering of 2-orbifolds. In the first part, we parametrize the Teichmüller spaces of Koebe groups using a technique that can be applied to explicitly compute generators of these groups, maybe by programming a computer. In the second part, we study some properties of these Teichmüller spaces. More precisely, we find the covering group of these spaces (the universal covering is the Teichmüller space of the punctured surface), and prove an isomorphism theorem similar to the Bers–Greenberg theorem for Fuchsian groups.

Our aim is to compute for all n > 2, ψ(n, h), the number of components of a certain quotient of the fixed point set of an involution in the "mod-n" Teichmuller space. This answers part of a question raised by Earle [2] and corrects and extends the answer due to Zarrow (See Theorem 2 of [6]).

One of the basic geometric objects in conformal field theory (CFT) is the moduli space of Riemann surfaces whose n boundaries are "rigged" with analytic parametrizations. The fundamental operation is the sewing of such surfaces using the parametrizations to identify points. An alternative model is the moduli space of n-punctured Riemann surfaces together with local biholomorphic coordinates at the punctures. We refer to both of these moduli spaces as the "rigged Riemann moduli space".By generalizing to quasisymmetric boundary parametrizations, and defining rigged Teichmüller spaces in both the border and puncture pictures, we prove the following results: (1) The Teichmüller space of a genus-g surface bordered by n closed curves covers the rigged Riemann and rigged Teichmüller moduli spaces of surfaces of the same type, and induces complex manifold structures on them; (2) With this complex structure, the sewing operation is holomorphic; (3) The border and puncture pictures of the rigged moduli and rigged Teichmüller spaces are biholomorphically equivalent.These results are necessary in rigorously defining CFT (in the sense of G. Segal), as well as for the construction of CFT from vertex operator algebras.

LetAZ(R)be the infinitesimal asymptotic Teichmüller space of a Riemann surfaceRof infinite type. It is known thatAZ(R)is the quotient Banach space of the infinitesimal Teichmüller spaceZ(R), whereZ(R)is the dual space of integrable quadratic differentials. The purpose of this paper is to study the nonuniqueness of geodesic segment joining two points inAZ(R). We prove that there exist infinitely many geodesic segments between the basepoint and every nonsubstantial point in the universal infinitesimal asymptotic Teichmüller spaceAZ(D)by constructing a special degenerating sequence.

With respect to Teichmüller spaces, many beautiful results are obtained by TeichmüUer, Ahlfors, Bers, Maskit, Kra, Earle, Abikoff, and others. For example, the boundary consists of b-groups, and the augmented Teichmüller space is defined by attaching a part of the boundary to the Teichmüller space. By using the augmented Teichmüller space, a compactification of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces is accomplished (cf. Abikoff [1], Bers [2]).
