§1.Introduction
LetUbe a domain in the complex plane C andµa measured function on the domainUwith||µ||∞<1,where||·||is the essential upper bound ofµ.A generalized homeomorphism solution of the Beltrami equation
onUis called aquasiconformal mapping,µis called acomplex dialation,and
is called themaximal quasiconformal dialationof the quasiconformal mappingf.In particular,Ifµis 0,then the homemorphism solutions of the equation (1.1) are conformal mappings.Therefore,quasiconformal mappings are natural generalization of conformal mappings.
Quasiconformal mappings were introduced by Gr¨otzsch in 1928,see [6].And the theory of quasiconformal mappings was extensively studied since 1930’s.In 1940’s,Teichm¨uller developed Gr¨otzsch’s ideal and introduced quasiconformal mappings into the study of Riemann surfaces.By using quasiconformal mappings and quadratic differentials,Teichm¨uller solved the Riemann moduli problem,see [9].Ahlfors used quasiconformal mappings to give the geometric meaning of Nevanlinna’s value distribution theory,see [2].And Sullivan introduced quasiconformal mapping in complex dynamics and solved the wandering domain problem,see [8].For more recent research on quasiconformal mappings,one may refer to [7].
The concept of quasiconformal mapping on the complex plane can be generalized to Riemann surfaces by using local coordinate charts.Given a closed Riemann surfaceSofg(g ≥2),letfbe a quasiconformal mapping fromStoX,whereXis another closed Riemann surface of genusg.The pair (X,f) is called amarked Riemann surface.Two pairs (X,f) and (Y,g) are calledTeichm¨uller equivalentif there is a conformal mappingcfromXtoYsuch thatc°fis homotopic tog.And it is well known that the Teichm¨uller spaceT(X)is the set of all equivalent classes of marked Riemann surfaces.The Teichm¨uller spaceT(X) is the strong deformation space ofX.And Teichm¨uller introduced the so called Teichm¨uller distance to measure the deformation.Let (X,f) and (Y,g) be two marked Riemann surfaces inT(X).The Teichm¨uller distance between (X,f) and (Y,g) is
where the infimum is taken over all Teichm¨uller equivalent classes offandg.
Since the Teichm¨uller distance plays an important role in Teichmuller space,it is natural to ask how to construct quasiconformal mappings between Riemann surfaces and to estimate the Teichm¨uller distance between two points.Note that each genusg(g ≥2) closed Riemann surface is associated with a natural hyperbolic metric and that the surface can be decomposed by 3g−3 pairs of pants.A pair of pants is a three connected domain which is called aY-piece.Bishop designed a method to construct quasiconformal mappings betweenY-pieces and gave an estimation of the maximal quasiconformal dialation under some restrictions,see [4].By using Bishop’s construction,one may obtain some information on the estimation of the maximal quasiconformal dialation between Riemann surfaces.
The idea of Bishop is the following:each pair of pant is a union of two congruent right-angled hyperbolic hexagons,and a hexagon can be divided into hyperbolic triangles,therefore,one only needs to give a quasiconformal mapping between hyperbolic triangles and estimates the dialation between hyperbolic triangles.Indeed,Bishop gave the following theorem.
Theorem 1.1.LetΔ1andΔ2be two hyperbolic triangles in the unit disk.The angles ofΔi are(αi,βi,γi)(i=1,2) and the opposite sides are(ai,bi,ci).Let
