I have been trying to determine the number of metrics of constant curvature on a surface of genus $n$, say $\Sigma$. For low values, the answer is clear, the moduli space is a point for the sphere, and is two dimensional for the torus, but the higher dimensional cases stump me, and I am unable to find the result. Any help or a reference would be appreciated.
How many metrics of constant curvature exist on a Riemannian surface?
