Abstract:
Suppose is a connected Riemann surface. Let denote the homeomorphism group of with the compact-open topology, and denote the subgroup of quasiconformal mappings of onto itself, and let and denote the identity components of and respectively. In this paper we show that the pair is an -manifold, and determine their topological types.
