The Complex Analysis Seminar is organized by Professors Linda Keen and Fred Gardiner.The seminar meets weekly during the semester and covers topics in complex analysis including (but not exclusively) Teichmüller theory, Kleinian groups, hyperbolic geometry and complex dynamics.
The seminar time is now Fridays 1:45-3:15 at the CUNY Graduate Center in Room 4419. For up-to-date schedule information, see the CUNY Graduate Center seminar bulletin . Dates of lectures by local speakers may change to accommodate outside speakers. Students are encouraged also to attend the Complex Analysis Student Seminar , Fridays 10:30-12:00 in room 4419;

Title: Train tracks and equidistribution results in moduli
spaces
Abstract: In this talk, we discuss the relationship between counting
multi curves carried by a train track, and the
equidistribution of horospheres in the moduli spaces of quadratic
differentials.
- 03/17, Ara Basmajian, Univ of Oklahoma
Title: Geometrically infinite surfaces and their
length spectra- 03/24 Bills Harvey, Kings College, London
- Title: Teichmuller spaces and geometry in low genus (2, 3 and 4 , say).
Abstract: Some very special genus 3 and 4 Riemann surfaces have
interesting representations as Teichmuller curves. This talk will
provide some background and discuss one or two of them.
