摘要：
We describe some recent progress in the study of moduli space of Riemann surfaces in this survey paper. New complete Kähler metrics were introduced on the moduli space and Teichmüller space. Their curvature properties and asymptotic behavior were studied in details. These natural metrics served as bridges to connect all the known canonical metrics, especially the Kähler-Einstein metric. We showed that all the known complete metrics on the moduli space are equivalent and have Poincaré type growth. Furthermore, the Kähler-Einstein metric has strongly bounded geometry. This also implied that the logarithm cotangent bundle of the moduli space is stable in the sense of Mumford.
