| Description: | [DMS Seminar] Dr Subhojoy Gupta (IISc Bangalore) -- Teichmüller Space, Harmonic Maps and Measured Foliations |
| Date: | Thursday, Sep 29, 2016 |
| Time: | 11:30 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. |
| Venue: | 112, Lecture Hall Complex |
| Details: | This talk shall be an introduction to some aspects of Teichmüller theory, which is concerned with the parameter space of marked Riemann surfaces. I shall describe Wolf's parametrization of Teichmüller space using harmonic maps, and discuss how it extends to the Thurston compactification. If time permits, I will describe some recent joint work with Wolf. |
