PDE & Applied Mathematics| Speaker: | Tudor Ratiu, University of Lausanne |

Description
I will present the universal Teichm\"uller space in
both its classical version as well as in the
approach of Takhtajan-Teo. The Weil-Petersson
metric will be discussed and its geodesics
will be presented. Applications to singular solutions
and imaging will be presented, time permitting.
