The teichmüller space of group invariant symmetric structures on the circle

We introduce the quasisymmetric deformation space of a Fuchsian group Γ within the group of symmetric self-homeomorphisms of the circle, and define this as the Teichmüller space AT (Γ) of Γ-invariant symmetric structures. This is another generalization of the asymptotic Teichmüller space, and we verify the basic properties of this space. In particular, we show that AT (Γ) is infinite dimensional, and in fact non-separable if Γ admits a non-trivial deformation, even for a cofinite Fuchsian group Γ.
