Workshop dinner

This workshop will examine and compare the different natural metrics on Teichmüller space, from the point of view of coarse geometry, dynamics, and differential geometry. The Teichmüller metric, the Weil-Petersson metric, and Thurston's "asymmetric" metric emphasize and reflect different aspects of the geometry of surfaces, and their similarities and differences are a fascinating and subtle object of study. There are interesting generalizations of these metrics to other settings, notably the asymmetric metric on Culler-Vogtmann Outer Space, and the pressure metric on Hitchin representations in higher rank.
