Teichmüller space is rigid

We study the large scale geometry of Teichmüller space equipped
with the Teichmüller metric. We show that, except for low complexity cases,
any self quasi-isometry of Teichmüller space is a bounded distance away
from an isometry of Teichmüller space. This is joint work with Alex Eskin and
Howard Masur.
