This metric\, which is asymmetr ic\, was introduced by Thurston and has not been studied as extensively as Teichmüller metric or the Weil-Petersson metric. However\, it equips Tei chmüller space with a distinctive and rich structure. We give a survey of some recent results and discuss some open problems and conjectures.\n\n\n \n DTSTART:20170315T190000Z DTEND:20170315T200000Z LOCATION:Room 920\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Kasra Rafi\, University of Toronto URL:/mathstat/channels/event/kasra-rafi-university-tor onto-267009 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
