Abstract

The geometry of Teichmüller metric in an asymptotic Teichmüller space is studied in this article. First, a binary infinitesimal form of Teichmüller metric on AT(X) is proved. Then, the notion of angles between two geodesic curves in the asymptotic Teichmüller space AT(X) is introduced. The existence of such angles is proved and the explicit formula is obtained. As an application, a sufficient condition for non-uniqueness geodesics in AT(X) is obtained.
