Abstract (Expand)

In 1986 William P. Thurston introduced the celebrated (asymmetric) Lipschitz distance on the Teichmueller space of a (closed or punctured) surface. In this paper we extend his work to the Teichmueller space of a surface with boundary endowed the arc distance. In this new setting we construct a large family of geodesics, which generalize Thurston’s stretch lines. We prove that the Teichmueller space of a surface with boundary, endowed with the arc distance, is a geodesic metric space. Furthermore, the arc distance is induced by a Finsler metric. As a corollary, we describe a new class of geodesics in the Teichmueller space of a closed/punctured surface that are not stretch lines in the sense of Thurston.

Abstract (Expand)

We investigate a type of distance between triangulations on finite-type surfaces where one moves between triangulations by performing simultaneous flips. We consider triangulations up to homeomorphism, and our main results are upper bounds on the distance between triangulations that only depend on the topology of the surface.

Abstract (Expand)

For a half-translation surface (S,q), the associated \emphsaddle connection complex \A(S,q) is the simplicial complex where vertices are the saddle connections on (S,q), with simplices spanned by setss of pairwise disjoint saddle connections. This complex can be naturally regarded as an induced subcomplex of the arc complex. We prove that any simplicial isomorphism φ\colon \A(S,q) \to \A(S’,q’) between saddle connection complexes is induced by an affine diffeomorphism F \colon (S,q) \to (S’,q’). In particular, this shows that the saddle connection complex is a complete invariant of affine equivalence classes of half-translation surfaces. Throughout our proof, we develop several combinatorial criteria of independent interest for detecting various geometric objects on a half-translation surface.
