A Teichmüller like structure on the space of d-degree holomorphic maps on the circle S1, marked by conjugations to the map z 7→ z d, can be defined. Here we introduce a definition of free energy associated to this kind of ...

The purpose of this work is to present the Thurston theorem about the actions of the earthquakes on the Teichmüller space. This theorem says that two hyperbolic structures on a closed surface are related by one left ...

We prove that the Teichmüller space of the Hirsch foliation (a minimal foliation of a closed 3-manifold by non-compact hyperbolic surfaces) is homeomorphic to the space of closed curves in the plane. This allows us to show ...
