Convergence of Teichmüller deformations in the universal Teichmüller space

Abstract: Let

v a r p h i : m a t h b b D o m a t h b b C

be an integrable holomorphic function on the unit disk

m a t h b b D

and

D_{v a r p h i} : m a t h b b D o T (m a t h b b D)

the Teichm"uller disk in the universal Teichm"uller space

T (m a t h b b D)

. For a positive

t

it is known that

D_{v a r p h i} (t) o [m u_{v a r p h i}] i n P M L_{b} (m a t h b b D)

as

t o 1

, where

m u_{v a r p h i}

is a bounded measured lamination representing a point on the Thurston boundary of

T (m a t h b b D)

. We extend this result by showing that

D_{v a r p h i} c o l o n m a t h b b D o T (m a t h b b D)

extends as a continuous map from the closed disk

o v e r l i n e m a t h b b D

to the Thurston bordification. In addition, we prove that the rate of convergence of

D_{v a r p h i} (l a m b d a)

when

l a m b d a o e^{i h e t a}

is independent of the type of the approach to

e^{i h e t a} i n p a r t i a l m a t h b b D

.
