Abstract

Thurston and Kerckhoff have shown that the space of measured geodesic laminations on a hyperbolic Riemann surface serves as a non-linear model of the tangent space to Teichmüller space at the surface. In this paper we show that the natural map between these manifolds has stronger than Hölder continuous regularity.
