Questions tagged [weil-petersson-metric]

The Weil-Petersson metric is a Kahler metric on the moduli space of Calabi-Yau varieties, the moduli space of general type varieties, the moduli space of K-stable Fano varieties, and more generally, we can define it on the moduli space of stable varieties.

Goldman symplectic form vs Weil–Petersson symplectic form

I'm confused about the exact multiplicative factor that relates Goldman symplectic form on the $\operatorname{SL}(2,\mathbb R)$-character variety and the Weil–Petersson symplectic form on Teichmüller ...

Integration à la Mirzakhani

Let $$ \gamma = \sum_i c_i \gamma_i $$ be a multi-curve on a hyperbolic surface $S$. For any $f: \mathbb{R}^+ \to \mathbb{R}^+$ one can define $$ f_\gamma (X) = \sum_{\alpha \in \mathrm{Mod} . \gamma} ...

Ricci curvature of the Weil-Petersson metric?

Let $\omega_{\text{WP}}$ denote the Weil-Petersson metric associated to a family of Calabi-Yau manifolds. That is, let $f : X \to Y$ be a surjective holomorphic map with connected fibres such that, ...

Weil-Petersson metric with respect to covering

Let $S$ be a closed oriented surface of genus $g\geq 2$. Consider the Teichmuller space $T(S)$. Let $d_t$ be the Teichmuller metric and $d_{WP}$ be the Weil-Petersson metric on $T(S)$. Let $P:S_1\...

Weil-Petersson norm of a Beltrami form

I'm reading Scott Wolpert's paper Noncompleteness of the Weil-Petersson metric for Teichmüller Space. He defines a path leading to the boundary of Teichmüller Space by giving surfaces $R_t$ ...

Is Teichmüller distance bigger than Weil-Petersson distance on Teichmüller space?

It is known that Teichmüller distance ($d_{Teich}$) on Teichmüller space is complete, whereas Weil-Petersson distance ($d_{WP}$) is not complete. See for example the article Wolpert, Scott. ...

Moduli space of log Calabi-Yau varieties exists?

Let $\mathcal M^{(X,D)}$ be a moduli space of pair varieties $(X,D)$ which $K_X+D$ is trivial and $D$ is a divisor with conic singularities on Kaehler variety $X$. I am looking for a proof that such ...
