The Weil-Petersson metric and volumes of 3-dimensional hyperbolic convex cores | Jeffrey F. Brock
; | Date: |
7 Sep 2001 | Subject: | Geometric Topology; Dynamical Systems MSC-class: 2000 MSC. Primary 30F40; Secondary 30F60, 37F30 | math.GT math.DS | Abstract: | We introduce a coarse combinatorial description of the Weil-Petersson distance d_WP(X,Y) between two finite area hyperbolic Riemann surfaces X and Y. The combinatorics reveal a connection between Riemann surfaces and hyperbolic 3-manifolds conjectured by Thurston: the volume of the convex core of the quasi-Fuchsian manifold Q(X,Y) with X and Y in its boundary is comparable to the Weil-Petersson distance d_WP(X,Y). Applications include a connection of the Weil-Petersson distance with the Hausdorff dimension of the limit set and the lowest eigenvalue of the Laplacian as well as a new finiteness criterion for geometric limits. | Source: | arXiv, math.GT/0109048 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
