DESCRIPTION:Title: Morse functions on the moduli space of hyperbolic surfac
 es\n\nAbstract: In theory one can find a Morse function on the moduli spac
 e M_{g\,n} of hyperbolic surfaces of genus g with n punctures\, as Morse f
 unctions on a given manifold/orbifold are dense among all smooth functions
 . However\, it may not be so easy to find a ‘natural’ one.\n\nI will talk 
 about my construction\, which improves the known results from topological 
 Morse functions on M_{g\,n}\, i.e.\, the systole function\, to C^2-Morse f
 unctions (and eventually smooth ones) on the Deligne-Mumford compactificat
 ion M_{g\,n} bar.\n\nI will start by talking about some background of hype
 rbolic geometry\, Teichmüller theory and Morse theory.\n\n \n
