Connected components of the strata of the moduli spaces of quadratic differentials

Erwan Lanneau (2008)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

In two fundamental classical papers, Masur [14] and Veech [21] have independently proved that the Teichmüller geodesic flow acts ergodically on each connected component of each stratum of the moduli space of quadratic differentials. It is therefore interesting to have a classification of the ergodic components. Veech has proved that these strata are not necessarily connected. In a recent work [8], Kontsevich and Zorich have completely classified the components in the particular case where the quadratic...

Connections in regular Poisson manifolds over ℝ-Lie foliations

Jan Kubarski (2000)

Banach Center Publications

The subject of this paper is the notion of the connection in a regular Poisson manifold M, defined as a splitting of the Atiyah sequence of its Lie algebroid. In the case when the characteristic foliation F is an ℝ-Lie foliation, the fibre integral operator along the adjoint bundle is used to define the Euler class of the Poisson manifold M. When M is oriented 3-dimensional, the notion of the index of a local flat connection with singularities along a closed transversal is defined. If, additionally,...

Constructing generic smooth maps of a manifold into a surface with prescribed singular loci

Osamu Saeki (1995)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

It is known that the singular set S ( f ) of a generic smooth map f : M N of an n -dimensional manifold into a surface is a closed 1-dimensional submanifold of M and that it has a natural stratification induced by the absolute index. In this paper, we give a complete characterization of those 1-dimensional (stratified) submanifolds which arise as the singular set of a generic map in terms of the homology class they represent.

Construction of Einstein metrics by generalized Dehn filling

Richard H. Bamler (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

In this paper, we present a new approach to the construction of Einstein metrics by a generalization of Thurston's Dehn filling. In particular in dimension 3, we will obtain an analytic proof of Thurston's result.
