Thurston metric: Thurston in a 1998 arXiv preprint introduced a metric on Teichmuller space parallel to the Teichmuller metric where Lipschitz maps play the role of quasi-conformal maps between marked Riemann surfaces. After a review of Thurston's work, I will discuss the coarse geometry of Thurston metric, some recent results joint with Lenzhen, Rafi and Tao, and some possible applications.
