Review text

Let \(R\) be a compact Riemann surface of genus \(g(g>0)\), and \(T(R)\) the Teichmüller space with respect to \(R\). This paper investigates the embedding of extremal length of the Teichmüller space, i.e., mapping \(\Phi: T(R) \rightarrow P(R^{S}_{+})\). Some convergence problems are discussed, for example, a necessary and sufficient condition for two geodesics of \(T(R)\) with extremal length converging to be asymptotic. And also it studies the action of the modular group of \(R\) on the boundary of extremal length, and proves this action cannot be extended continuously to the boundary of extremal length of the Teichmüller space. As a consequence, in \(P(R^{S}_{+})\) the Thurston boundary of \(T(R)\) (to which the action of modular group is extended continuously) is properly included in the boundary of extremal length.
