Understanding Gauss-Manin connection on Arbarello's book
I am trying to understand the Gauss-Manin conecction in order to understand the definition of the Period Mapping on the Moduli space of algebraic curves of genus $g$ and its extension to the ...

Moduli spaces of surfaces to algebraic stacks
I've been reading through Farb and Margalit's book on the action of the mapping class group on Teichmuller space to get a moduli space. This is a very topological/geometric construction, looking at ...

Teichmuller space of the 4-punctured sphere
I'm a bit confused working with Teichmuller space at the moment. Let's think of Teichmuller space as the space of holomorphic/conformal structures on a surface, up to diffeomorphisms isotopic to the ...

What is Representation of Surface Groups?
I had a question in my mind for a month ago. Mainly I am interested in Hyperbolic Geometry. I found a topic named "Representation Theory of Surface Groups". Let me tell about what is a "...

Singularities of moduli spaces $M_g$
This survey paper from Lizhen Ji says:
Teichmüller was aware that nontrivial automorphisms of Riemann surfaces caused difficulty in constructing $M_g$ and singularities of $M_g$, and he

Mapping-Class Groups of Subsurfaces of a Hyperbolic Surface
Assume that $\mathcal{R}$ is a hyperbolic surface with $m$ geodesic boundary components and $n$ punctures. If $\mathcal{R}'$ is a closed subsurface of a hyperbolic surface $\mathcal{R}$, then there is ...

Hyperbolic Metric on a Riemann Surface
From uniformization theorem, it is known that every conformal class of metrics on a Riemann surface contains a unique hyperbolic metric. For a genus-$g$ Riemann surface with $n$ punctures, the ...

Examples of complex manifolds satisfying the Kodaira-Spencer condition for unobstructed deformations
The theorem of existence proved by Kodaira and Spencer shows that a complex manifold $M$ for which the second cohomology group $H^2(M, \Theta T^{1,0} M)$ is trivial, $\Theta T^{1,0} M$ being the sheaf ...

Dehn twist as isometries on hyperbolic surface
[I am editing the question to a most correct and precise one thanks to comments of Lor and studiosus]
Let (S,g) be a compact hyperbolic surface. On a simple closed geodesic $\gamma
$ I can realized a ...

Hyperbolic (and related) structures on open unit disk
I am facing some confusion about different structures on the open unit disk $D:=\{ z \in \mathbb{C}, |z|<1 \}$. By Riemann Mapping Theorem we know there is just one complex structure on $D$, up to ...
