Abstract
The Teichmüller space of Riemann metrics on a compact oriented surface V without boundary comes equipped with a natural Riemannian metric called the Weil–Petersson metric. Bridgeman, Canary, Labourie and Sambarino generalised this to Higher Teichmüller Theory, i.e. representations of π1(V ) in SL(d,R) , and showed that their metric is analytic. In this note we will present a new equivalent definition of the Weil–Petersson metric for Higher Teichmüller Theory and also give a short proof of analyticity. Our approach involves coding π1(V ) in terms of a symbolic dynamical system and the associated thermodynamic formalism.
