Translation surfaces Translation surfaces are obtained by glueing polygons with pairs of parallel sides identified by translations
Affine automorphisms and Veech groups Definition (Affine diffeomorphisms) A diffeomorphism S S between translation surfaces S. S' is affine iff it is affine in each chart and Du(z) is independent onze S. Definition (Veech group)
