``We introduce two new kinds of Teichmüller spaces and prove that they are complex manifolds. One of them, the asymptotic Teichmüller space \(AT\), provides a natural setting for a period doubling system. In the definition of the asymptotic Teichmüller space, the conformal map giving an equivalence between marked Riemann surfaces is replaced by an asymptotically conformal map, i.e. a map whose dilatation outside of compact subsets of a Riemann surface is asymptotically close to one (so \(AT\) is interesting for Riemann surfaces for which the usual Teichmüller space is infinite dimensional, i.e. for surfaces with boundary or of infinite topological type, otherwise it consists only of one point). Also, the subspace \(T_0\) of the usual Teichmüller space represented by asymptotically conformal maps (instead of quasiconformal maps) is considered. The classical infinitesimal theory of Teichmüller spaces is generalized for the Teichmüller spaces \(AT\) and \(T_0\). An application of the \(AT\)-theory to the ``period doubling equation \(E \circ G \circ G = G \circ E\) is given which is shown to hold on \(AT(\Omega)\), for some domain \(\Omega\) where \(E\) and \(G\) are induced by suitable self-mappings of \(\Omega\). (The second part of the paper will be devoted to the study of Teichmüller and Finsler metrics on \(T_0\) and \(AT\)). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0941.00017].
