The aim of this lecture course is to familiarize students with the basics of surface theory, especially with the theory of Teichmuller.
This course is a continuation of [MTH.B407 : Advanced topics in Geometry C1].
Understand the Teichmuller space from two viewpoints: hyperbolic structures and complex structures on the surface.
Teichmuller space. Hyperbolic structures. Complex structures.
