DESCRIPTION:From a complex analytic perspective\, Teichmüller space - the
 \nuniversal cover of the moduli space of Riemann surfaces - is a bounded\n
 domain in a complex vector space. Likewise\, bounded symmetric domains\nar
 ise as the universal covers of locally symmetric varieties (of\nnon-compac
 t type). In this talk we will look at bounded domains in their\nintrinsic 
 Kobayashi metrics with a goal to contribute to the following\nimportant qu
 estion: To what extent does the geometry of Teichmüller\nspaces resemble 
 the geometry of bounded symmetric domains?
