Abstracts of Gardiner’s lectures
• Title: Teichmuller theory and the associahedron
Abstract: The finite earthquake theorem is used to introduce Teichmuller geometry on the asso- ciahedron.
• Title: Circle expanding maps
Abstract: The Teichmuller space of uniformly asymptotically conformal circle expanding maps is constructed. The matching condition for solenoid functions and compatibility condition for scaling functions is described on dual Riemann surfaces.
• Title: Rohlin’s formula for UAA mappings
Abstract: A version of Rohlin’s formula for uniformly asymptotically affine circle expanding maps with integration of the scaling function over the dual Cantor circle is described.
• Title: Thompson’s group in Teichm¨uller theory
Abstract: There is a natural representation of Thompson’s F group in the group of isometries of the Teichmuller space of a Cantor set of bounded geometric type and of the Teichmuller space of degree 2 circle expanding maps. This action is shown to be discrete.
• Title: Infinite dimensional hyperelliptic Riemann surfaces generated by horseshoe maps
Abstract: A natural Teichmuller space with a pseudo-Anosov full horseshoe map is constructed and an unsolved type problem suggested by this construction is discussed.
