Isolation, equidistribution, and orbit closures for the SL (2, ℝ) action on moduli space

A Eskin, M Mirzakhani, A Mohammadi - Annals of Mathematics, 2015 - JSTOR
We prove results about orbit closures and equidistribution for the SL (2, ℝ) action on the
moduli space of compact Riemann surfaces, which are analogous to the theory of unipotent …

Invariant and stationary measures for the action on moduli space

A Eskin, M Mirzakhani - Publications mathématiques de l'IHÉS, 2018 - Springer
We prove some ergodic-theoretic rigidity properties of the action of on moduli space. In
particular, we show that any ergodic measure invariant under the action of the upper …

Translation surfaces and their orbit closures: an introduction for a broad audience

A Wright - EMS Surveys in Mathematical Sciences, 2015 - ems.press
Translation surfaces can be defined in an elementary way via polygons, and arise naturally
in the study of various basic dynamical systems. They can also be defined as di fferentials …

Compactification of strata of abelian differentials

M Bainbridge, D Chen, Q Gendron, S Grushevsky… - 2018 - projecteuclid.org
We describe the closure of the strata of Abelian differentials with prescribed type of zeros
and poles, in the projectivized Hodge bundle over the Deligne–Mumford moduli space of …

The field of definition of affine invariant submanifolds of the moduli space of abelian differentials

A Wright - Geometry & Topology, 2014 - msp.org
The field of definition of an affine invariant submanifold ℳ is the smallest subfield of ℝ such
that ℳ can be defined in local period coordinates by linear equations with coefficients in this …

Right-angled billiards and volumes of moduli spaces of quadratic differentials on

JS Athreya, A Eskin, A Zorich - arXiv preprint arXiv:1212.1660, 2012 - arxiv.org
We use the relation between the volumes of the strata of meromorphic quadratic differentials
with at most simple poles on the Riemann sphere and counting functions of the number of …

Growth tight actions

G Arzhantseva, C Cashen, J Tao - Pacific Journal of Mathematics, 2015 - msp.org
We introduce and systematically study the concept of a growth tight action. This generalizes
growth tightness for word metrics as initiated by Grigorchuk and de la Harpe. Given a finitely …
