Consequently, we obtain the local rigidity theorem of the Thurston metric, as well as a new proof of the global rigidity theorem which was first proved by Walsh.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-05-24T14:55:23.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "thurston metric", "teichmüller space", "global rigidity theorem", "local rigidity theorem", "hyperbolic surfaces" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 11, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
