Fenchel–Nielsen coordinates

ID: fenchel-nielsen-coordinates

Fenchel–Nielsen coordinates are a method used in the study of hyperbolic surfaces and Riemann surfaces, particularly in the context of the deformation spaces of these surfaces. They provide a parametrization of the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces with a fixed topological type, such as a surface with a given number of punctures or boundaries.
