The subject of this handbook is Teichmuller theory in a wide sense, namely the theory of geometric structures on surfaces and their moduli spaces. This includes

This book surveys quandle theory, starting from basic motivations and going on to introduce recent developments of quandles with topological applications and re

The first part of the book studies pseudo-periodic maps of a closed surface of genus greater than or equal to two. This class of homeomorphisms was originally i
