The Thurston spine and the Systole function of Teichmüller space (ENGLISH)
[ Abstract ]
The systole function $f_{sys}$ on Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}_{g}$ of a closed genus $g$ surface is a piecewise-smooth map $\mathcal{T}_{g}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ whose value at any point is the length of the shortest geodesic on the corresponding hyperbolic surface. It is known that $f_{sys}$ gives a mapping class group-equivariant handle decomposition of $\mathcal{T}_{g}$ via an analogue of Morse Theory. This talk explains the relationship between this handle decomposition and the Thurston spine of $\mathcal{T}_{g}$.
